Yeah I'm onto it - not a droid user so it's a learning curve!! Thanks - it's coming down now!!

No worries. I am a droid user only for my DAPs… :)

Oh wow, it's absolutely perfect. And no issues at all with track transitions or locked screen etc.

Move over Tidal, I'm really not seeing the point of paying for that in addition to AM which I'm a long term subscriber to anyway.
There are still some kinks to be ironed out. Hence, it’s just a beta. But yes, it sounds so much more transparent, open and smooth compared to Tidal.

Does anybody have a problem with 24/198 on m8 (Apple music 3.6.0 beta 1108)? For example Hotel California from Eagles?
Please what exact issue are you facing?

Freezes during playback, and the player does not respond well to touch. It seems as if there is not enough player CPU power to perceive hi-res loseless 24bit / 192khz. At the same time, 24/96 and lower works fine.
Do you have this issue just with Apple music? Or even with local files?

Never tested it with local files, but my iPhone 11 pro max play this song well. My internet connection is about 1 gigabit fast.

Dammit - I wasn’t at the full hi res so I’ll retry mine. On the regular 24/44.1 lossless it’s working seamlessly.

Yeah I’m getting the same problem with that track when streaming it. Downloaded version plays just fine. I’d think this is an Apple beta app issue so don’t fret too much.
In any event, I think we have it much better than the FiiO owners and AK owners who cannot even play Apple Music on their devices. :)

Will look more into it, Apple Music is really fresh for now.
