Incorrect Codec Information: Bits per sample

[jayR]

The following is a part of "Codec Information" of "Tools" menu of VLC.
--------------------------------------------
Stream 1
- Type: Audio
- Codec: DVD LPCM Audio(lpcm)
- Channels: Stereo
- Sample rate: 48000
- "Bits per sample: 32"
---------------------------------------------

This example is taken from a DVD track which has 24 bits per sample. The"Bits per sample: 32" in the above is not correct. VLC also shows 20 bits sample as 32 bits. It appears that VLC shows as 32 bits if track is greater than 16 bits. This should be corrected. Otherwise users may get incorrect bits information.

Yes. This is a known issue. It takes the padded output bits, not the input ones.
