It also works with Onkyo HF and Hiby Music App - no PC needed for files downloaded directly to the Phone.

BTW, on Hiby, dff files were displayed as DSD on the BTR5 while dsf files were downsampled to 88khz pcm. It is an app problem, I suppose?
Dear globobock,

1. You could try the Wifi transfer function in the FiiO Music app as well.
2. You could check whether there are any setting int the app may lead to the issue? And also check via other dsf file.

Best regards

Forget it, it works with my fire hd 8 :)
BUT … it plays up to DSD128 with Fiio Music, but it won‘t play DSD256 files.

Is there some settings, either on the Fiio App or the BTR5 that I got wrong?

Dear globobock,

Yes, the FiiO Music app ios version could only support up to DSD 128. You could check whether there are other app supporting DSD256 native output in iOS device for help?

Best regards

Hi no it is not the iOS version, this time I am using the Fiio Music App for Android (from Google Playstore) on the Fire HD 8.

It is also a limitation by the app then, good to know.

Not that I plan to listen to DSD in the future, I just wanted to test the capabilities of the BTR5.

Dear globobock,

Please try to switch the DSD output mode to 'native' in the USB output menu of the FiiO Music app, then try to connect the Android mobile phone to the BTR5 again:

Thx I'll try it.
BTW., the USB-C cable is just too short, I'm looking for longer cables. Can we use just any USB-C male to male cable?

Hi, anyone experiencing bug with "beta" BTR5 firmware here? In Android Tidal Exclusive mode I am not often able to play any song (same behavior like very slow loading, but even for offline downloaded albums so definitely not connection issue). It works immediately when BTR5 unplugged - no fault message appears so nothing to mention here. Happens very often. Source Samsung S20FE 5G.
It also makes pauses when switching apps on my phone so it seems that returning to UAPP will be better idea than trying to use Tidal app :frowning2:.
Is it possible to revert XMOS firmware back so Tidal would not fight with UAPP for exclusive mode anymore? :-D

Dear inkvizition,

You mean BTR5 or BTR5 2021? For BTR5, it does not support MQA. So you may need to switch the straming quality to HiFi in Tidal app.
