  2. Ever wondered about the tech behind your Bluetooth headphones' sound quality?

    We've come a long way from the basic SBC. Now we have a range of options like Apple's preferred AAC, Qualcomm's aptX family (including Lossless!), Sony's high-bitrate LDAC, and the efficient new LC3 codec for LE Audio.

    The future of wireless audio is bright and increasingly high-fidelity.

  4. #aptx codec for bluetooth is surprisingly actually really good. I can't notice any loss. I absolutely can tell if it is experiencing any loss with AAC. Seems like HiFi music on BT is now a real thing :) Would still prefer if we could just do BT over 5GHz instead of the congested 2.4GHz band

  5. Komisch. Seit dem #highres USB-C Update meiner #apple #airpods Max klingen selbige verstörend kratzig, metallisch und somit etwas unnatürlich via #bluetooth
    Ist der SBC-Codec (endlich) am Ende seiner Entwicklung angekommen?
    Ich werde bis zum nächsten Update (insofern überhaupt noch eines kommt) erstmal auf solide, kabelgebundene #kopfhörer von Koss und B&W zurückgreifen.

  7. Qualcomm has open sourced aptX and aptX HD encoders for Bluetooth audio and added them to the Android Open Source Project, which means device makers don't need to pay a license to include them on Android phones anymore. reddit.com/r/Android/comments/

  8. @nick @torproject @briar
    My bad- I haven't had my coffee yet and misunderstood.

    As I still wake up, speaking from a pinephone user perspective:::
    - A fully #encrypted #filesystem, with optional support for hardware key (like #solokey, or #nitrokey) #decryption
    ++Not sure about hw key, but encrypted fs is relatively easy on most Linux distros
    - NO #Fingerprint Scanner or #Biometrics at all
    ++#pinephone doesn't have that at all
    - #NFC that can only be toggled on temporarily, and automatically shuts off after X amount of time
    ++Probably a feature to be released in the near future
    - #Bluetooth 5+ with #A2DP; #AptX and #BLE with a more security focused method of #authentication
    ++From the wiki "Bluetooth: 4.0, A2DP"; could probably swap it out though.
    - All internet connections routed through @torproject (or something similar), with a #killswitch if the connection is dropped
    ++Maybe configure a distro to do so? I know there's various killswitches on the back.
    - Privacy focused #browser with something like #SSL Everywhere; #WebRTC and JS disabled by default, with easy toggle for "trusted" websites, which would allow JS and Video etc
    ++Never tried this specific setup myself-ill have to give it a go.
    - #Decentralized messaging; voice chat; video conferencing; forums and blogs, like where #Briar is being taken by @briar (though the voice; video and other creature comforts are as yet unavailable)
    ++I used #fractal as well as ssh into my personal communication server
    - No closed source Modem/Wifi/Bluetooth binary blobs
    ++Iirc, pinephones modem is open.
    - Securely Containerized SMS/MMS
    ++Sms/mms is still unstable but working
    - Password Manager with support for #OTP; #TOTP and #Fido2
    ++I keep being referred to bitwarden. Not sure if this applies.
    - #GPS #Spoofing by default
    ++Not aware of any mobile distro doing this be default

    I would like to see more Linux phone options/development out there in the wild...

  9. I was thinking about my post about a week ago, re. the #FreedomPhone (see the link below).

    It got me wondering - What would I actually want in a #Freedom and #Privacy respecting #phone?

    Maybe things like:

    - A fully #encrypted #filesystem, with optional support for hardware key (like #solokey, or #nitrokey) #decryption
    - NO #Fingerprint Scanner or #Biometrics at all
    - #NFC that can only be toggled on temporarily, and automatically shuts off after X amount of time
    - #Bluetooth 5+ with #A2DP; #AptX and #BLE with a more security focused method of #authentication
    - All internet connections routed through @torproject (or something similar), with a #killswitch if the connection is dropped
    - Privacy focused #browser with something like #SSL Everywhere; #WebRTC and JS disabled by default, with easy toggle for "trusted" websites, which would allow JS and Video etc
    - #Decentralized messaging; voice chat; video conferencing; forums and blogs, like where #Briar is being taken by @briar (though the voice; video and other creature comforts are as yet unavailable)
    - No closed source Modem/Wifi/Bluetooth binary blobs
    - Securely Containerized SMS/MMS
    - Password Manager with support for #OTP; #TOTP and #Fido2
    - #GPS #Spoofing by default

    That's all I can think of for now, what would YOU like to see in a Privacy focused Phone?

  10. Hm, now that the #Bluetooth SIG pushes forward with #BLE #Audio using the open #LC3 codec (which is supposed to work for #HSP/#HFP mode as well, meaning finally proper Bluetooth microphone quality!), #Qualcomm finally opened up their #aptX codec and donated it to the #Android #AOSP, even part of the MTS test suite:

  11. О как!

    Audio-Technica выпустили вторую ревизию беспроводных наушников ATH-M50xBT.

    Заявляют USB-C, улучшенные микрофоны, еще дольше работу от батареи (до 50 часов), подключение к двум устройствам сразу.

    Немного удручает разве что то, что Bluetooth не 5.2 и убрали #aptX в пользу #AAC и #LDAC.

  12. Since I just shared some advice on in ear monitors I can also share it here:

    If your #inear #headphones/#earphones or #IEM 's hurt, and you're using ones with a nozzle+replaceable tip construction, chances are the nozzle has a too large diameter. Many (most?) nozzles are 5mm in diameter or nozzle size "T400". There are other sizes out there, notable T100 (3mm). Some manufacturers produce mostly T100 (or T200) nozzles, such as Shure (although a bit pricy). An easy way to find T100 models is to go to the website of comply who manufacture foam tips in various sizes, select T100 and look for the supported models in the compatibility tab:
    complyfoam.com/products/comply

    Additionally, I can recommend buying earphones with detachable cables. The plug is standardized (e.g. MMCX) which means you can a) replace broken cables and b) use the ear unit from say Shure with the #Bluetooth module from LinSoul and switch between wireless and wired. You can also upgrade from Bluetooth 4 to #BLE #Audio when it will be more available or to BT modules that support #AptX, #LDAC, #AAC or other special audio codecs whenever you feel like it. This prolongs the life time of your product. #hifi #RightToRepair

  14. So I toyed for hours now with my Ubuntu setup to get #aptX HD with my Sony WH-1000XM3 running.

    After much time lost installing #Wireplumber and a patched #Pipewire version, eventually I realized the reason why I only got SBC-XQ is… a configuration setting of my headphones themselves. 🤦‍♂️

    Switched to "Prefer sound quality" via Sony Connect: Boy – FLAC quality is really worth it.

  15. updated my #sennheiser momentum 4s and noticed they added #aptx support...and it really is a noticeable upgrade.

  16. @bluelupo Irgendwie hab ich hier vergessen zu antworten. Ja, hat super geklappt! Mein Gerät läuft seit Monaten vollkommen stabil. Im Grunde hat @caos schon alles wesentliche gesagt, im Grunde ist #DivestOS ein sichereres #LineageOS mit eigenen Anpassungen und Anleihen von #GrapheneOS. Auf Root und einige unfreie #Android- und #Google-Features sollte man hier verzichten können. Zwischenzeitig gab es nicht mal #aptX-Unterstützung. Und immer im Hinterkopf behalten, dass es sich hier quasi um ein 1-Personen-Projekt handelt.

  17. Awesome! Qualcomm open sourced the #AptX codec.
    reddit.com/r/Android/comments/
    ...and now #Lineage supports it!
    My old Android phone final sounds brilliant on my Bluetooth headphones.

  18. We're slowly crossing that line where Bluetooth earbuds are offering higher quality and more choices for tuning. The NuraTrue Pro are the first TWS earbuds to include real bit-for-bit CD quality sound, but will the price tag scare folks away?

    The custom ear tuning did make me say "wow" out loud...

  19. Prüft mal, ob ihr libfreeaptx installieren könnt (Arch hat’s). #PulseAudio kann damit endlich den Codec für ausgehende und eingehende Audioverbindungen wie verbundene Smartphones nutzen!

    Eigentlich hätte das schon vor einem Jahr funktionieren sollen, aber jetzt tut’s hier jedenfalls endlich. Prüfen, welcher Codec genutzt wird, könnt ihr in PavuControl. #aptX

  20. @[email protected]
    Do
    #Bluetooth headsets have full support yet? My #LinuxMint #pipewire solution was to ditch #aptX (which doesn't work properly) in favor of AAC to get HQ audio, but HQ audio + working microphone seems to be still a problem. Mostly it just means I have to route #Discord voice chat through my phone, but it's a pain. Since #Android is almost a #linux, and my headset works properly there, shouldn't getting Bluetooth headsets working be a relatively simple matter?

  21. Gerade herausgefunden, dass die #sony WH-1000XM4 gar kein #aptX unterstützen. Dafür den neueren #LDAC codec. An sich schön und gut, aber #bluetooth transmitter die das unterstützen kosten echt viel Geld 😐

  22. Si vous voulez utilisez les algo de compression audio #bluetooth de meilleur qualité que ce qui est disponible par defaut sur #Debian

    #LDAC #AptX #AAC

    (les brevets, encore et toujours la plaie)

  23. @digger2 bonne question. Je ne sais pas trop ou ils ont son (huhuhu joke).

    Normalement le codec #aptX permet d'envoyer une assez bonne qualité, proche du CD me semble-t’il. Faudrait regarder en détail.

    Après j'imagine qu'il y a des récepteurs de plus ou moins bonne qualité. Mais là, c'est surtout pour dépanner ^^ ca me permet d'écouter la TV a distance sans avoir besoin de câble de 5m :D
