Hi all, I wonder if anyone can shed any more light on the fact that you can now use iTunes to sync 24/96 files to the Music App and play them?
Before iOS 11, iTunes would only transfer up to 48kHz sample rate and give you an error if you tried anything higher.
I've tested it successfully with AIF and ALAC files and I've also seen that anything higher than 96kHz is still not working, with the error message that my iP7+ does not support that particular sample rate.
My question is, can you now play 96kHz files through the Lightning port to a suitable DAC, or is it still limited to 48kHz despite the actual sample rate of the file?
If it is still limited to 48kHz, when can you actually play the 96kHz version? Is it only over Airplay for instance?
**EDIT** - Copying post to the following thread: 24bit Audio Now Supported?
