mdiogofs: Hi, Thanks for that - I just tried my Dacmagic XS with a Moto G ( 2nd Gen ) and found that it works natively ( It didn't used to work ! ) Interestingly, the XS has both USB Audio Class 1 and 2, and the Moto G works in both modes.

To add to Theogenes's contribution on Samsung tablets, I have a Samsung 10.1 Tab Pro running 4.4.2, which I was pleased to find would work with my iFi Nano iDSD without UAPP or Hiby. Also I have found it to be more 'robust' than using other phones with UAPP, by which I mean there are virtually...

Haidar: Moto E does not support USB OTG and will not work with any dac - sorry !

hykhleif: I have a Toshiba Encore 8" tablet running Windows 8.1. I've just checked the specs of the HP Stream 7 and it appears to have a similar processor to my Tosh ( it has a 'g' after the number so is probably an updated one ). These devices are surprisingly powerful - much better than a...

One or two people on here enquiring about USB to optical or SPDIF.   For optical I have found that the Behringer UCA202 is very good with Android devices provided that it has USB host mode. This will convert to optical ( not coaxial ) but up to 48kHz only. I cannot recall having an Android...

fanoble: Hi - just downloaded the new one and it will not install due to a ' Parse error '. I have tried a few times and get the same error message: ' There was a problem while parsing the package '.

DanBa: That's odd - I had literally just downloaded it using ES Downloader and installed it a couple of minutes before reading your post ! I did notice that there were 2 files downloaded one of which only had 92kb. I hit the one with 5.12mb in it and it installed. My problem with it is that...

hari15: Have you tried it ?? I've just purchased a DacMagic XS but could only get it to work on my phones ( Moto G 5" 2nd gen & Sony Xperia Z Ultra ) with either UAPP or HibyMusic and then I had to set the XS to USB 2. Can't get it to work properly with my Samsung 10.1 Pro Tablet as there...

Percival: Glad someone else has benefited from this - it certainly is a good price !  Good to hear it works OK - I'm still awaiting mine in the post.

Those located in the UK may be interested to hear that Cambridge Audio have reduced the price of the DacMagic XS USB dac and headphone amp over this Black Friday weekend to £49-95 ( half price ! ). It's available instore at Richer Sounds but if, like me, you do not have a local Richer Sounds, it...

I'm afraid I have had to uninstall Hiby from my Xperia because the window asking to allow HibyMusic to access the USB device keeps popping up, if I have it plugged into any dac. The phone will play natively through some dacs and I do not want to have to keep cancelling this window which seems to...

fanoble: Thanks - looks a nice app. I've tried my iFi Nano iDSD dac and it would not play properly with my Sony Xperia Z Ultra ( phasey / distorted sound ) but it was OK with my Moto G ( 2nd Gen ). Neither phones would play through my Audinst HUD-MX2 dac ( using hiby ) but that dac seems to...

Guidostrunk: I don't know what you have tried re this problem but I have a suggestion ( although it's a bit of a fiddle ! ).   I recently purchased some little USB speakers and found that when first plugged into a computer, the volume was low. This wasn't a problem on the computer, because...

bixby: Do these stubs start with a dot ? - I have just checked my phone and there is a UAPP update which now hides files starting with a dot !

Guidostrunk: I don't think there are any - you simply purchase a USB hub and then power it either from the mains, or a car adapter outputting 5v or a rechargeable battery powerbank !

bixby: I think the problem maybe that Android does not play .aiff ! I came across this page which seems to list codecs supported by Android:   http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html   No sign of .aiff being mentioned I'm afraid.   There is a very extensive page...

bixby: I use BubbleUPnP and can confirm that it will play WAV lossless & Flac, as well as all lossy bitrates in the normal codecs such as MP3, AAC, Ogg Vorbis etc. I have recently purchased a iFi Nano iDSD dac and I just downloaded a test 24 bit, 192kHz file and it played that on my tablet (...

senorx12562: Your x3's headphone and line outs are both analogue - the line output would normally go to an amplifier ( for a hifi system ). I have a Nano and I'm trying to get my head round all the features of the Micro, but it seems clear to me that the best way for you to use the x3 with...

Thanks for the replies rhadorn and Davy. I didn't think UAPP worked with UPnP but it sounded so simple the way rhadorn described it, I just had to give it a try . I've looked at the 'notes' section of the above link and that does seem to explain why I could not access my PC, but I can barely...

rhadorn : Hi,   I wondered how this worked but was afraid to ask !   Well, I've just bought a new phone and wanted to try out UAPP so instead of transferring some music files on to it, I thought I would try this out !   So, is it meant to work with other Android devices on the network...

Jjacq:   Hi,  I have the iFi Nano iDSD and it does not work natively with either my Sony Xperia Z Ultra or my Samsung Note 8 tablet so both need USBAPP. The only way I can play Spotify through the Nano is on my Windows tablet but I had to install iFi's driver and I noticed that there seems...

r4tr4tr4t: Can't wait to taste those lollipops !

qafro: Just got back from holiday. I'm trying to remember what I did - it was a while ago ! I believe I made a playlist in ArkMC and used a long press to select UAPP as the app for playback. However, I believe that although Davy has sorted the original problem of the trial version only...

h1f1add1cted: Thanks for the links - I like the look of your rig !   As for Android L working natively with USB dacs - I'll believe that when I see ( or hear ) it

bobthedespot: I can also confirm that I have successfully used a couple of USB dacs with a powered hub - sources: Samsung Note 8 tablet, Sony Xperia Z Ultra, Toshiba Encore windows 8.1 tablet. At the same time, I also had a portable HDD connected to the hub on which the music files are...
