@Max.1974 @Slice @MaLd0n  Should we all be building a custom VoodooHDA for our hacks?  I have always used the kexts provided by Slice and MaLd0n (modifying only Info.plist as needed), but I'm open to your advice if you think that re-building the kext makes any difference.

@Max.1974 No offense, but that doesn't make any sense to me. Do you have a reference about this that I can learn from.  I personally don't think anyone needs to be custom-building VoodooHDA, but I'm open to having my mind changed.  If anyone else believes that they need to custom-build VoodooHDA, I'd like to learn why you think so.

 

Thanks for your patience with my learning.

I think no one needs custom building. You have nothing to change except info.plist

Thank you, @Slice.  I am currently testing VoodooHDA.kext 3.6.4 with analog InhibitCache=false on my HP EliteBook 850 G7 laptop.  Is that the only difference between 364 and 365?  Analog HDA Audio quality is outstanding.

 

364 and 365 have a big difference in 192kHz rate.

I do custom building to support my unlisted Yosemite

@LockDown That makes sense.  The VoodooHDA.kext 3.6.4 Info.plist includes attribute LSMinimumSystemVersion = 10.13 (macOS High Sierra).  If that is accurate and VoodooHDA targets 10.13 and later, then custom builds may be required for macOS versions earlier than High Sierra.
