is your shanling an android device or not? An android device (such as both the pixel and the r5) usually acts as the host, unless unequivocally signalled to be the client. Not so with a non-android device, which may perhaps only ever act as the client.

If you're having trouble in the sense that the wrong device becomes nominated as host, you may fix this by using a USB OTG adapter, and a regular USB A to C cable, instead of a direct C2C cable.

I'm sorry for the government, to hear that.

I have never heard of placebos having placebo effect once they are exposed as placebo. Any treatment that retains effect while the subject knows exactly what it is, is by definition a real treatment, not a placebo. And, it is unethical to try to obfuscate the nature of any treatment for the...

@joe @jude if you need any evidence that this guy is taking the one sided moderation and rubbing it in our faces, look no further.

I obviously understand the issue much better than you do. I do take personal offense despite what you claim so I'm going to hit the report button yet again. Then whatever is being tested by said blind test should be concluded to be ineffectual for the group who underwent the blind test...

Anytime you initiate a new scan it should now ask if you want to keep or discard the current database?

In order for this solution to work the player software has to be able to be able to extract and actually make use of all the info you put in these cue files, I assume? You may want to give HiByMusic the app on google play a try to see if it satisfies your requirements. If it does, this same...

He did start his grand entry into this thread by outlining a whole list of things whose purported beneficial effects cannot be measured, as if that were some badge of honour, and followed up with an argument that placebo should be treated as having real effect by definition (confounding placebo...

by the way, Reductio ad Absurdum is NOT a logical fallacy when used correctly.

Well, that would be hard to explain, wouldn't it? "Before you try to explain something, first establish that something is true." You have just listed 7 things purported to be true that if true would make a known fact be false, what a conundrum! You could start by laying out proof that just...

the idea that the green pen can improve playback despite no difference in read bits, or improve jitter despite the bits being all cached in the player prior to analog conversion, is no less absurd than the example given above.

It does look like the 3.5mm dust cover is triggering port detection by mistake, but since the plug does not make contact with any of the signal pins, much less short them out, no damage shall result.

...discussion away from a place where he managed to get himself censored despite head-fi's best efforts (and oh boy, their best efforts for their likes is REALLY GOOD as we all know) to a place where *I* may be censored at the drop of a hat? Hell no, I'm a man of principle, not a man of...

I'm looking into this for you. Can you confirm that your convolution is actually processing? It will only process, if the sample rate going into it is already 48000 (via separate Fixed Sample Rate plugin above it, or if your music just happens to be 48000), or if "other sample rate bypass" is...

It won't matter, if you do have the fixed sample rate plugin above it at 48000. The guide is written that way because currently, there is a more efficient sample rate conversion program in the dedicated plugin, than in the convolution plugin. Unchecking "other sample rate bypass" asks the...

As a sponsor I am protesting your organization's one-sided moderation of this subforum and this thread in the strongest terms. A person who is the very embodiment of pseudoscience enters one of the best threads in Sound Science and starts mocking everybody, comfortable in the knowledge that any...

The volume caps can be bypassed in developer options which you enable by tapping settings->about->firmware version 7 times.

Of course not. Which is why he's doing it, to rile people up. And there's nothing we can do about it here. Well, we could always post elsewhere... https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080076858868&sk=reviews...

ah, I thought that was what failed to install but ok, all good!

can you try clearing data on the version of the app currently installed on your device first?

A placebo effect is by definition effective. A placebo does not automatically generate placebo effect. It sure as heck doesn't for me.

what error message does it come up with?

they certainly are. Many an audiophile house might already have been burnt down by noncompliant boutique cabling already? https://www.google.com/search?q=power+cable+standards I mean, can that even be a question?

they don't work with people who are interested in improving the sound outside of their own minds, and people for whom they work tend to put together sound systems that sound downright embarrassing to any visitors?
