Well. The main idea is if you no have a compatible decoder, the format
is a flac 16-24/44.1Khz but I dont know where is the encoded info in
flac. It is a very very strange format and it is no public.

I tried to unfold the format with my DragonFly Red (it is compatble),
but when using LMS the file is not recognized at MQA. Dragonfly Red uses
a color code for advertising the sample frequency. I was told that this
is due to the file is modified by LMS. I was told even a digital volume
change could do that the file is not recognized as MQA. I even tried to
adjust the volume to 100% fixed. See screenshot35808.
But not all players let to do this. I.e my Squeezeplay in my mac can't
do this. I need Squeezeplay for using my Dragonfly in my Mac.

It is a very very confusing format. As you write it could be interesting
go use the LMS Tidal Plugin but I have no TIDAL account. I got all my
test files from 2L http://www.2l.no/hires/index.html?
