[edit] Codename

Why is IHD called AZALIA ? Any special reason ??

Just a codename. For example, Intel uses geographical names for their CPUs and chipsets (look here). Why not use flower names for audio codecs? 217.172.21.161 (talk) 06:51, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Throughput

How could it be that 192 ks/s times 32 bit times 2 channels (12.288 Mbit/s), when downsampled to 96 ks/s, provides 8 channels (24.576 Mbit/s)? Logically, «low-end» mode should carry 16 bits only, i. e. “192/32/2 vs 96/16/8”. 217.172.21.161 (talk) 06:51, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
