Hi guys! Is there a way to get my KDE Neon to prefer aptX over ldac_HQ? If I understand it correctly, ldac seems to be a bit more unstable jumping over different bitrates when having interference, and aptX might be more stable? I’d like to try the difference, but not sure how to force Neon to work with the aptX codec with my headsets (Sony XM2 and XM5). I’m trying all this because I don’t seem to be able to get any decent audio quality. It’s super broken, stuttering constantly. Even changing from A2DP sink to the HFP mode (which I understand it to have lower bitrate and latency due to being designed for talking) improves it just very slightly, with the stutter continuing. This doesn’t happen if I boot into windows on the same computer, audio works flawlessly.
Thank you! I’ve been getting so annoyed that I couldn’t figure out my stuttering with my BT headphones.
Np, I think LDAC is a bit wonky anyway, but I had it working ok as long as I have a usb bt dongle with an antenna: https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Wireless-Transfer-Transmitter-Headphones/dp/B0C1ZDYFSZ
But otherwise you need to stick with aptx, or there’s the other one which is ok too, aac.
