LDAC is proprietary, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it isn’t available on Linux. You can probably use SBC-XQ, though, which is open source and lossless. Try installing pavucontrol and check what codecs it offers you for the headphones.
Edit: SBC-XQ, not QX.
ldac is available on linux, i can switch to it. i use the “pulsemixer” program to switch codecs. also it’s SBC-XQ, not QX
Thx for the correction, I was writing from memory.
LDAC works just fine on Linux, but may be a different package or repo since it’s somewhat proprietary. Just worked out of the box for me on Arch.
how is bad just to use proprietary codec? I try to use only open source solutions, but if it’s just codes is it so bad?
That’s an ethical question, and as such rather difficult to answer. I prefer open source codecs, but you have a headphone designed with LDAC in mind. I don’t think you should feel bad about trying to get your money’s worth and using LDAC if it suits your needs.
