Omnia S1 and Apple
« on: 18 Jun 2020, 12:51 pm »
Which app could I use for Ipad with the Omnia S1? MConnect Lite or HD does not work. I can only listen to the first track of an album or playlist. The S1 does not go to the next tracks. This problem does not exist with the WR100D.
Many thanks!

Use 8 Player.

Omnia S1 is not a streamer but a media server where you use controller app such as 8 Player to control S1.
Your can run Tidal and Qobuz Android apps on Omnia S1 to play online music, but you can't stream to it.
If you listen to mostly online music, you should use Omnia WR-1.

Thanks for your attention, but we know that to get the best sound quality you need to use Omnia S1 as a renderer through the Android Bubble Upnp app. In this way Qobuz and Tidal work wonderfully even at 192 khz .. Unfortunately I cannot recommend the purchase to a friend who uses Apple and who wants to make the best use of the S1.

Agree. If you friend is interested in online streaming music, don't recommend Omnia S1.  Perhaps WR-1.
Omnia S1 is only for people who have a large collection of high res music.
