Sounds great but JRiver, Roon, Audirvana comes with a price that will be added to the Apple Music subscription and it’s computer or laptop dependent.
We were discussing how to stream Apple Music. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe JRiver, Roon, or Audirvana are capable of streaming Apple Music.While Airplay is limited to CD quality, you can use JRiver, Roon or Audirvana software with a laptop computer over UPnP connection to support 192Hz HiRes music wirelessly with the RPi4 using Moode or Ropieee. I prefer this method as HiRes 24/192 music files are not compressed during playback.
After rooting, what music software do you use for bit perfect hi-res playback?Possible to bypass this by rooting
Actually Airplay will only transmit audio at those two resolutions. If the source isn't 16/44.1 for Airplay 1 or 24/48 for Airplay 2, it will be upsampled or downsampled to make it match.Airplay will not deliver 24/192 in any configuration. According to a couple of fairly reliable sources, Airplay 2 now maxes out at 24/48, Airplay 1 at 16/44.1.
Can you provide a source for this? There is a lot of conjecture and misinformation floating around about Airplay and if you have an authoritative source I’d like to have it as a reference.

Search Apple’s site using Google’s site: option. It’s there.Can you provide a source for this? There is a lot of conjecture and misinformation floating around about Airplay and if you have an authoritative source I’d like to have it as a reference. Thanks…
Congrats bro.NO ADDITIONAL COST!
being an apple fanboy finally paid off.
yesDoes anyone here use Apple Music with a surround sound system?
yesCan the Apple TV pass Dolby Atmos content with Apple Music
yes, but stereo only. It is possible to control the apple tv from your iphone/ipad/mac, though.Can you Airplay things from you phone and have that work?
yes
yes

The Apple TV remote control app on the iPhone (or iPad) allows you to type on the device, no need to point and click:Hmm, so I'd still have to point and click to type out songs and add them to the queue? That's the biggest drawback for me, but as soon as they can fix that an I can do everything from my phone, I'd be sold. Might even buy an iPhone if there's enough good content and they figure out how to make the volume difference go away.

What he saidThe Apple TV remote control app on the iPhone (or iPad) allows you to type on the device, no need to point and click:
“When the onscreen keyboard appears on Apple TV, a keyboard becomes available in the Apple TV Remote on your iOS or iPadOS device.
- Enter text in the iOS or iPadOS keyboard.
The text on your Apple TV screen updates as you type.”
OK. It just dawned on me that someone may be thinking that Apple Music and Apple TV are separate services. Well, they are, but the words get in the way…
Apple Music is an app in iOS and Mac OS, but the same word is used for a service for streaming music, available in limited forms on other OS platforms, and as a web based service.
Apple TV can mean an app, or a service for streaming video content, or a piece of hardware. The Apple TV hardware device can run any number of apps, including Apple Music. If you subscribe to Apple Music streaming service, you can use the Apple Music app to play music on any Apple device, including Apple TV.
Apple doesn't even support Apt-X HD or LDAC for bluetooth music streaming, in their opinion AAC is enough (or Airplay for lossless over Wifi).
