If you uncheck internal decoder then it’s your phone decoder. It is probably bugged, not much I can do.

Maybe. I am using a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra for the record. Could be my phone is bugged. I wanted to report nonetheless as the result is bad user experience for those wishing only hi res support and internal decoder to off. To reach that state you have to toggle in weird order.

There’s no reasons to changes settings while playing media :wink: You don’t change wheels while running :wink:

Thats also true :joy:

In this case the music does not actually need to be played for the undesired outcome to happen (I could have made this a bit clearer). It has to do with how those toggles are cycled. I can upload a screen record if you want to follow up at any point.
