mconnect Player 4+

The app plays well on my iPad Pro to Mytek after it is found. I am unable to determine which device is not working correctly. I tried it on my wife’s new iPad and it only plays 15 seconds and skips to the next song! Tried it again and still does the same.
My iPhone X Max has trouble finding the Mytec Brooklyn Bridge. If I reboot the phone it will find it. I do not know where the problem is.
From a user, I would love to be able to play internet radio.
I know how much work goes into these programs and I do appreciate their efforts when I get it to work.

When the iPhone is connected via Bluetooth to AirPods, for example, and you want to connect to a renderer, you will get the error message pop up “Please select iPhone/iPad at the airplay device list to connect to a renderer device.” Prior to the unnecessary updates, I could tap on the airplay icon on the top left cover of the iPhone and follow the instructions on the pop up and select iPhone/iPad. Thereafter, I could select the Chord 2Go as the renderer. However, after the updates, the AirPlay icon is gone and you repeatedly get the error message when trying to select any upnp rendering device. To solve the problem, disconnect your Bluetooth device and you can then select the renderer from the upnp list. Please clarify the message pop instructions or revert to previous versions of the app, which worked fine after fixing the queue playlist bug. This app worked very well. It has a simple job as basically a “remote control” to connect NAS to renderer. It doesn’t need to be fancy.

Previous review, which was positive:

Glad mConnect regularly updates this app and listens to reviews. They fixed how tracks are added to the playing queue. The app works well with my Chord 2Yu streamer. It allows for bit perfect and lossless playback. At this point, I don’t see any need to make changes to the app because it accomplishes the simple task of allowing users to play music from NAS to renderer.

Got this app to stream at least CD quality music to a volumio server, and it does that okay! One nitpick, when I connected to tidal, it didn’t stream until I found the settings and selected the highest quality stream settings. Overall sounds good and let’s me easily stream tidal to my system more reliably that using the tidal app directly (which uses airplay or Chromecast Audio, not upnp, I believe).

The UI leaves a bit to be desired, but it’s the best I’ve tried for iOS, so giving it 5 stars.

Edit: just to clarify this app does not seem to stream Tidal Masters at 24bit. It could be a limitation in Tidal or my UPnP server (volumio), or my HiFiBerry DAC. I’m not sure what’s to blame. CD quality sounds great though.
