Hi all,
I’m using an iPad mini 5 with a USB camera adapter to allow it to feed my DAC.
On Apple Music, some albums that are listed as ‘lossless 24/48’, seem to be downloading (and playing) as 16/44.1.
In Music settings I have set downloads and streaming to ‘Lossless - 24 bit / 48 kHz’, and indeed some music is downloading / streaming at the advertised hi-res, but some are not. I’ve tried the higher setting too.
I have experimented with albums I haven’t downloaded so I can be sure I’m not just picking up an already downloaded lower resolution file.
For example, an Ed Sheeran album advertised at 24/48 did play as that, and a Marvin Gaye album advertising 24/96 played at that too - so it seems there is nothing wrong with my set up.
But if I try, for example, Cara Dillon - Wanderer and Lana Del Rey - Born to Die, both of which advertise as 24/48, they both play at 16/44.1.
I would appreciate other thoughts perspectives / experiments.
Thanks
