SUMMARY
I have a Mini Disk player/recorder and can only record at 48,000KHz or lower at 24bit or lower though S/PDIF.
Need to have more option on controlling a S/PDIF output, because I believe it's sending a singe where my MD can't processes.
Make it so it can send up to DTS quality too.
Windows had a lot of option to change that but Bazzite does not.

This kind of low-level control is out of scope for Plasma. The goal of Plasma is to provide a simple interface for what most users need.

There's other tools available for this kind of low-level Pipewire configuration

I would like to know what that is?
