[Is it possible to redirect to 3rd party file explorer]

The situation is I organize my albums by folders. Each folder has several m4a files and some PDF/JPG. It seems the "folder view" of PA can only open audio files. Is it possible to redirect to 3rd party file explorer from PA so I can easily open the PDF/JPG in the same folder?

[Bit Perfect Mode!]

@LA2A I think a lot of people would be happy with an automatic output-follows-source-frequency mode - as far as Android hardware or DACs allow anyway. Attempting to be completely 'bit-perfect' would effectively mean that Poweramp would just become a data copier, a middle-man for transferring content byte-by-byte from an audio file directly to an external DAC.

Similarly, forcing the final output to match with 24-bit or 32-bit content would ultimately be pretty pointless too, as all of PA's internal audio processing is handled using 32-bit float anyway (with 64-bit float used for DSP/EQ work) so it will already have been modified from the original source data.

Yes. No resampling is the major demand for me. iOS can directly output the orginal signal without resampling many years ago. I wounder why most of the android devices cannot do that.

[Support for bit-perfect playback out of USB-C port]

Looking forward to this feature. SRC is a very annoying practice for audiophile. For the last decade, people can only bypass SRC by using poor desinged apps like UAPP. So it would be great if Poweramp can bypass SRC in android 14.

[Now playing list/Queue Feature]

sad to see that it's been 3 years since the OP but there's still no current playlist ( which is basically an essential function in any other audio player)in PA.

[USAC / xHE-AAC / MPEG-D support (AAC successor)]

yes it's not a popular codec. But it's till hard to believe after two years our beloved Poweramp can not support USAC. many music player out there already support USAC without FFMPEG's supporting.
