I have wh1000xm4 headphones, installed void with xfce, turned on “Prioritize Sound Quality”, but can’t enable LDAC in settings.

    LDAC is proprietary, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it isn’t available on Linux. You can probably use SBC-XQ, though, which is open source and lossless. Try installing pavucontrol and check what codecs it offers you for the headphones.

    Edit: SBC-XQ, not QX.

      ldac is available on linux, i can switch to it. i use the “pulsemixer” program to switch codecs. also it’s SBC-XQ, not QX

        That’s an ethical question, and as such rather difficult to answer. I prefer open source codecs, but you have a headphone designed with LDAC in mind. I don’t think you should feel bad about trying to get your money’s worth and using LDAC if it suits your needs.
