1417083 - Re-add "media.resampling.rate" preference

Status: NEW

(Core :: Audio/Video: Playback, defect, P3)

Description

[Jean-Yves Avenard [:jya]]

media.resampling.rate and media.resampling.enabled allow to easily simulate sampling rate of audio cards we may not possess.

It has allowed to diagnostic and found problems quite a few times.

We should re-add those prefs, it was a mistake to have make it a 48kHz constant, especially as all audio cards support 48kHz

Hi, 
Can you please tell me which versions are affected to set the flags?

central only at this stage.

While this is technically a regression, I'm going to mark it fix-optional for 59 as it's not user-facing.

I'm removing the regression keyword here to remove this from the triage tool's "Regressions without status flags" pool of bugs. It seems more like a backlog item at this point.
