Is anyone noticing a lag when using the R3 as an external DAC or as a BT receiver? I'm seeing around 250 ms delay. Not a problem for music obviously but sucks when gaming or watching movies.

It's for listening to music?
It's not a low latency device

Is LDAC up and running yet?

To my knowledge it is not yet working.

(PS - great work on your YouTube channel bro!)

@Joe Bloggs has totally disappeared in the last few weeks (Joe - I hope you're OK!)...
Before he did, a while back, he said their engineers are still working with Sony on the certification.
I hope HiBy would come through eventually. LDAC was not a must-have for me personally, but I will be happy to get it.
...and HBB - one more thumbs up from me (re: your YouTube videos). Informative and enjoyable. A little harsh at times, but then again manufacturers should be kept honest!

FW 1.12 with LDAC, screensaver and other improvements.

It turned out well! First working sample!

Very nice.

Are you going to upload the blueprints when you're done? I wouldn't mine printing this up myself.

For what I know, this firmware update (FW 1.12) is for China version.

There's only one way to find out.

Some update info from HiBy Music on R3 (China version):

I can not get LDAC to work on my Sony LDAC headphones with the new firmware. When Hiby says LDAC is bi-directional, does that mean that it can be used as an LDAC audio output?

FW 1.12 with LDAC, screensaver and other improvements.

Do you have this version (1.12) installed and working correctly? There is no update available via the OTA function directly from the R3 when connected to Wi-Fi?

 

[HeadlessChicken]

seems that the latest firmware 1.12 is not yet available to download via OTA, so caveat emptor to all those waiting for LDAC functionality

Well no reply to the list of requests from Hiby.
Emailed service@Hiby and Hello@Hiby

I'm going to persevere and email every now and then.

Hope @Joe Bloggs and @fanoble share some news, at least there is some FW development and updating for China which I hope will also be pushed to international versions soon.
