Any way to get HD Audio other than direct playing lossless files from Nas (Media Library)?

So the Plex integration doesn’t get HD or Hi Res flag in the interface when playing hi res files,

When you “cast” from Roon over Sonos and it shows the signal path as being lossless again it doesn’t show the flag…

Is there any way to get HD or Hi res flags other than streaming direct from local media library?

 

Thanks

Hi @Shawneau,

After checking with our team, the other ways to get Hi-Res music is with Amazon Music, Qobuz, and Deezer. Also, while Apple Music doesn’t offer Hi-Res audio, it does offer spatial audio.

I hope this information helps!

Just for the record, Tidal does not show with an HD flag with a HiFi Tidal account. So that jives with the answer above.

Also another note, Qobuz doesn't show an hd or hi res flag in the Sonos app either. It is doing up to 24 bit 48khz according to the documentation so it would be nice to get the flag in the Sonos app as some reassurance that it's all working properly
