[QUESTION]: How to get the Highest Quality as Possible #1136
Comments
im asking the same question i've been trying to find out why and if it is mqa or not and how do I decode it when I use the cli it shows codec - mqa Then the max quality is 48khz for every track I downloaded in |
Before i made this question, I did ask Google Bard to answer about the MQA format. I asked it "Are the MQA file format shows as .flac too?". It answered, "While MQA files often use the .flac extension, the presence of a .flac file alone doesn't guarantee MQA content. Look for specific MQA indicators or use compatible devices/software to verify and experience MQA audio." But this is still raised a question for me about the Sample rate, why when we download the HiRes or MQA, it's only get 24bit/48kHz, and not getting 92kHz or 192kHz. Are this is related to OS limitation, since the |
You can try the cracked version of roon |
I wrote a while ago on another thread a comment about how MQA works, before even HiRes FLAC was announced.
The original file of the music you're asking is HiRes FLAC 24bit 96kHz. As I said about MQA, 96kHz are stored on 48kHz sample rate, so that's why the downloaded files are 24bit-48kHz while the HiRes on your phone is 24bit-96kHz. |

Describe your question
Hi new to this app and also about audio quality.
Want to ask, correct me if i did something wrong.
I downloaded many albums with Hi-Fi quality settings, and the file was .flac with 16bit/44.1kHz. I just realized after almost hundred albums downloaded (for personal collection). After realized that, i tried to change the settings to Master quality and downloaded several albums, the format indicator shows as mqa format, but after i open the folder it just .flac with slighty higher which 24bit/48kHz.
I just want to know, are the availability of the file depends on the source? I mean, even it indicates as mqa but the download result just .flac with only 24bit/48kHz? On the tidal app, it shows as MAX with 24bit/96kHz.
Or I did something wrong or I need additional steps? I just want to get the highest quality as possible.
I have little bit knowledge about OS limitation, is this related to Android limitation since the
