  UAPP is the best because it doesn't interface with the Android audio subsystem, which does some resampling for the time being.   I don't know Viper4Android.  UAPP doesn't use Viper4Android, because it is directly interfacing with the USB driver at the Linux kernel level.

  As your main goal is to use a media player for audio/video playback, I am wondering if you should focus more on audio over HDMI (object-based audio like Dolby Atmos, legacy 5.1 / 7.1 channel-based audio) via a receiver or TV sound bar. As far as I know, there is no object-based audio over...
