[TIP] Hi-Res Audio for Android devices

[FatGhost444]

Hello,

I'm encountering several issues with my current setup. Firstly, the generic driver doesn't have the options such as "Hi-Res Codec" and "Hi-Res Speakers." Secondly, when playing 16-bit tracks, the output device shows 32 (out: 24 int), suggesting all tracks are output as 24-bit. Thirdly, clicking on the channel field doesn't display any information.

Output isn't input. the player decodes the input, whatever bit-depth that has, and works internally with 32 or 64 bit, depending on the settings. It checks what the device output can handle and sets its bit-depth for the output accordingly.

As to the missing high-res- and channel-options: could you provide screenshots and tell us what device, os etc you're using ?

By the way: It was not possible to get my old Huawei Ascend Mate 7 work with these Fiio-Devices. I ordered an new Android 14 Smartphone (where these elder Fiios had other problems with OTG) and an iFi DAC 3 and everything is working like a charme...
