Available settings
Section titled “Available settings”Cellular maximum bitrate
Section titled “Cellular maximum bitrate”If your server supports it, limit the media bitrate when connected to a cellular network (transcoding).
Force instant transcoding
Section titled “Force instant transcoding”When transcoding for cellular and losing Wi-Fi, instantly restart playback in transcoding mode to reduce network data usage.
Wi-Fi maximum bitrate
Section titled “Wi-Fi maximum bitrate”If your server supports it, limit the media bitrate when connected to a Wi-Fi network (transcoding).
Prefer internal decoder
Section titled “Prefer internal decoder”Prefer Symfonium’s internal decoder. This improves codec support and fixes a few device bugs, but can use a little more battery.
Offload mode
Section titled “Offload mode”When using the device decoder, try to offload everything to the phone audio processor to reduce battery usage. On some devices, combined with the Hi-Res settings, this can bypass some phone sample rate limits.
Hi-Res support for local renderer
Section titled “Hi-Res support for local renderer”On devices that support it, try to render media at higher quality when the source is higher quality. This disables a few audio processors, such as playback speed and skip silence.
Transcoding engine
Section titled “Transcoding engine”Enable the internal transcoding engine to play more audio formats, such as DSD, MPC, and APE.
Enhanced replay gain processor
Section titled “Enhanced replay gain processor”Leverage the transcoding engine for replay gain (also when casting). Improves replay gain but uses more battery and requires some storage for temporary files.
