snd_pcm_rate_to_rate_bit(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, this is snd_pcm_rate_to_rate_bit(9) from the Kernel API Manual — yes, manual name folded in, we're being efficient 💅. It converts a sample rate to the matching SNDRV_PCM_RATE_xxx bit. That's the vibe. Slay.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

unsigned int snd_pcm_rate_to_rate_bit (unsigned int rate );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • rate — the sample rate you want to convert. That's it, that's the whole argument, no cap.

🦋 RETURN 🦋

It returns the SNDRV_PCM_RATE_xxx flag that corresponds to the given rate. If the rate is unknown, it returns SNDRV_PCM_RATE_KNOT — that's the unknown-rate flag, periodt 💀.
