Emby and Fiio app

[EmbyPenguin 17]

Hi,

As far as I am concerned, it looks like Emby does not like fiio music app. 

Here is the thing : on Fiio R9 I have installed Fiio Server 4.8.8.0 for Android and indexed all my music. 
From my smartphone, I connect to that Emby Server using the EMby client for Android App. 
I send the music to the Fiio Music app. 
Each time I do this, Fiio Music app reports that I am sending .mp3 file when the original format is .flac in hi-res. 
The same happens if I send files over my computer connected to the server via Emby. 

The problem is NOT Fiio Music.
It supports .flac in Hi-Res alright. 
If I connect to the same Emby Server from, say Symfonium or mConnect, and play files to Fiio Music => .flac in Hi-res. 

So the problem is Emby AND Fiio Music combination. 
I have of course disabled the "Allow converting on playback" in User and such things. 
But I keep sending .mp3 files. 
If I send to something else (Emby) it is .flac indeed. 

Just to report this
Not a complain... As there are sufficient easy workarounds (do not use Fiio as a target or use Symfonium or mConnect or Bubble as a "remote" control app).
