Don't have any access to a windows computer to try that sadly

or just to check, try starting it with the "firmware" update mode (pushing the fn button before pluggin) and see if you can update it again, maybe something went wrong the first time, theres another mode that disables some features for older devices like game consoles, dont remember how to get it though (should be either vol + or vol - buttong being pushed before plugging in) should try to see if it gets detected and then update the firmware again

Has to be a way I would think to reset it.. did you try using it via USB ver1 by holding the fn button whilst connecting it?

Unfortunately a lot of these products don't play well with macs. I booted apple yonks ago :) I'd shoot an email to lotoo tech support.
Counterpoint: I use my PAW S1 almost exclusively with a Mac, including firmware updates. Worked like a charm so far for me, but YMMV

I'm talking about macs in general with daps, not S1. I've read so many complaints over time about macs not working correctly with many daps. I quit because of battery problems I had with several MacBook pros. Nothing to do with daps.

I always had a PC to use with daps. So I never bothered trying a Mac with any of my audio devices. I do think I tried Sony software yonks ago that was supposed to be Mac compatible, but didn't work for me.

I'm just going by how many times in reviews, say on amazon, there's angry mac owners that can't get their gear to work properly.

Hopefully he gets the issue sorted, since other users have no problems. Lol don't take what I say Personally about macs. I'm sure the software has improved. I've got a gaming laptop anyways, kind of limited to pc if you want that.

Anyways..... humour 4 today :)

Well for iphone users be aware that Lotoo S1 will have background noise/EMI if you will use mobile data. For me it makes S1 unlistenable. With WIFI only S1 is nearly silent, plane mode dead silent. I've ordered EMI shielding tape+wooaudio cable, will try to shield an inner shell of S1 and see how it goes then. I've read that S1 can be modded as well by Remi mode, has anyone else tried it ? after the mode is there really SQ improvement or power from this tiny dongle ?

Not just iPhone. My Android phone/S1 combo behaves the same way. Seems to be a common problem with some usbc dongle dac/amps.

Hello, users. My questions are about permanently paring this device with a PC. Does S1 have any input lag or delay during video/audio playback? Or cases when audio and video are not in sync in a video player audio exclusive mode and in a browser? Is it simply plug & play or proprietary driver is needed? I'm waiting for it to be aviliable locally and wanted to ask just in case.

There might be a few ms lag, but it's not noticeable. I don't watch many movies (nor any in a browser), but I do a lot of conference calls, and haven't noticed any lip/audio sync issues.

I just watched some of the Banana Splits movie and audio was perfect. Not in a browser though just with MP. Gotta watch that movie.
