Woohooo!! Sign me up to test it! PS: I’m wondering if this will enable the “reduce flashing lights” accessibility feature. The current version doesn’t support this (apps that use the built-in player all do). In our household, it has become necessary. :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

Hi Craig, Yes, the audio appears to be changing on the device but it’s not getting reported correctly on the server.

Ah, maybe not directly related to what we’re doing here. I’m asking the rest of the team.

AirPods show atmos too in control centre! You can use Subler app on macOS to try yourself. Literally takes seconds to …
