    Qobuz Connect - Anybody Heard Any Updates

    Technical validation with 3rd parties can take ages. Qobuz will want it to "just work" with the all myriad of hardware out there. Its not like Qobuz is like Apple and also sells the hardware. I personally can't wait. I'm using Amazon Music for High Res audio but don't think it's close to...

    Qobuz Connect - Anybody Heard Any Updates

    It's pretty clear that's done from a technical point of view but Spotify can't afford to release it for free like Amazon and Apple did. I'm expecting they follow Tidal's route but their lossless subscription is a lot more expensive and that offers High Res too. Which Spotify won't. Will enough...

    Qobuz integration -- Qobuz Connect?

    Hi, Did they say or do we know any rough ETA? I'm currently subscribing to Spotify for its overall excellent music service, but music quality is lacking, and Amazon Music because I can stream 24/192 wirelessly, but as music service it's basic. I'd like to switch to Qobuz but to get stream...

    Qobuz & Wiim Pro and Mini

    Thanks. Looks like a similar solution to Bubble UPnP. Given Qobuz lock Chromecast to 24/96 in their apps, I wonder how reliable 24/192 is to Chromecast via LMS.

    Qobuz & Wiim Pro and Mini

    LMS? Personally I wouldn't want to use Bubble UPnP. I've used DLNA to stream video from my PC to TV so know about it and it does look great, but for mainstream usage I'd just want to cast from a mobile apps. Really the official app.

    Qobuz & Wiim Pro and Mini

    Oh yeah I missed that's your question in the thread. Good job managing to get a response from Qobuz. Qobuz shouldn't be stating "up to 24-bit at 192 kHz on some devices" in official support pages when they know that's never the case, just because Google told them Chromecast supports 24/192. I...

    Qobuz and Chromecast

    At least this only affects 24/192 tracks, as having to use the Wiim app isn't ideal. I prefer using the proper apps. 24/96 and lower does likely cover most tracks on Qobuz though.

    Qobuz and Chromecast

    See I'm basically repeating what Brantome has already said in more detail.

    Qobuz and Chromecast

    Qobuz's IOS and Android support pages both say: in 24-bit at 96 kHz in most cases and up to 24-bit at 192 kHz on some devices So I asked Qobuz if you can really get 24/192 over Chromecast, because we know you can't, and at first I got a stock response: You can find the list of...

    What best output to to use between coax and Spdif?

    Quality is the same. The answer to which you should use depends on which works best for you. I'm already using my receiver's Optical connection so am using Coxial. It's too rare this is included these days so great to see the Pro has it.

    Chromebook Support

    I assume you mean the Android app? Developers can explicitly block ChromeOS. Not always for good reason. I'd push back on your claim "many Chromebooks" can't run Android apps. They've been able to for several years and most apps are compatible. Sounds like your best bet is an Android tablet.

    Norton said no!

    What does Norton give as the reason for deletion? I find this hard to believe. You can usually always configure AV to A: Quarantine not delete B: Whitelist. Sounds like you've found the whitelist option you need. There'll be some way in NAV to whitelist. Guessing you have PUPs enable...

    Is the sound quality different between AlexaCast and WHA?

    Hi @Brantome, My question to Yamaha AV Support: Yamaha RX-V4A: Alexa Cast doesn't show audio Bit or Sample Rate? I've received a response that confirms what we thought: We have had a response from our designers with regards to your question, when you use the Alexa cast option, this is using a...

    How does the Preset button work?

    Thanks Wiimer. I guess it's a button that'll be added to later. At present it doesn't have particularly much use.

    How does the Preset button work?

    To know how to switch presets. I've not done that so let's stick on topic please. Thanks.

    How does the Preset button work?

    You can only listen to the first preset with the button? What a pointless button then. Thanks. I might do actually as it seems odd to implement a button with such minimal use.

    Is the sound quality different between AlexaCast and WHA?

    I saw this. It mentions nowhere it's only 24/48 due to the constraints on the outputs. Taking the mick just a bit. At least it says something. All you get using Alexa Cast via MusicCast is it saying "Digital" in the app and on-screen. Thanks. It sounds like enough testing was done to come to a...
