No support for 24bit/96kHz audio file?

[Stephen Barncard]

Mark,
My experience with the built in player in the past has been difficult and
it never served files greater than 16 bit up to 48k. In 2006 I reverse
engineered (hacked) the player object to EXPORT audio files and required a
lot of convoluted code to reassemble as a wav or aiff file, building the
binary jump table was a trip.  I gave up after that.

Has it ever really been improved? Player vs "Player control"  ?
It used to depend on Quicktime which is now doornail.
