Reply to comment by MoWePhoto in Recently got a ztella DAC and bought UAPP and have a couple questions. by All_hail_Korrok

Hello!

I signed on my tidal account through the UAPP app.

Every time I plug in the ztella DAC it gives me that prompt and I allow it access.

I will feel like the idiot of the year if that was the case, but no it's definitely red, but I'll double check in a minute. *It's definitely red lol.

Honestly, yea it does sound better. I just feel that it's my phone not allowing MQA to pass through since others have said the pixel 6pro gave them similar issues.

I have worked in Sales and Support for nearly twenty years and if you experience all the problems, the customers have, you start searching for them on your own devices and start doubting your own reason. That's pretty much the same with doing.to much research on possible problems online.

Your Pixel6 asks for allowance. Your DAC recognizes it by indicating the pass through via LED. So I would imagine it works. What it doesn't do is change led colour by audio format. Could that the format is not transmitted. Could also be that the driver doesn't communicate the led change correctly.

What happens to the LED when you plug your DAC into windows and use Tidal from the desktop. My HiBy is much more reliable in terms of LED change with Windows than with my Sony Xperia....
