can you pair homepod mini with xbox? Hi! So I have been wanting to get the HomePod mini to replace my old surround sound system. I was wondering if I could pair it with my Xbox One X. Thanks!!

Gapless looped playback not working after iOS/iPadOS 16.2 update I am using the Apple Music app on both my iPhone XS and iPad Pro 10.5". When I set the playback mode to "Repeat 1" and listen to any track that should loop seamlessly (for example, a continuous rain sound), there is a 1 second gap when the track restarts. This obviously ruins the experience - can anyone else reproduce this? The problem didn't occur prior to iOS/iPadOS 16.2. Things I have tried that make no difference to the problem: Using AirPods vs built-in speakers Disabling Lossless Audio Disabling Sound Check I noticed that if I manually scrub forward to the end of the track, it repeats without a gap. But of course that isn't helpful.

Spatial Audio on Beats Studio 3 It’s not so much of a question, but a clarification of questions I have seen. I recent bought Beats Studio 3 wireless and was confused about if they had spatial audio. My AirPod Pros have a toggle on the control menu but the Beats do not. On the Apple website it does not say that it has spatial audio, but on the beatsbydre website it does list spatial audio as a feature. Before I continue, I would like to note that I think Spatial Audio and Spatial Audio with head tracking are different things. My AirPods play sound relative to the device streaming the audio (with head tracking). The Beats do not (spatial audio only). In conclusion, Beats Studio 3 Wireless do have spatial audio, and this can be tested with a simple Dolby Atmos test on YouTube. They do not have head tracking like the AirPod Pros do.

Your query prompted me to test it. Simply worked for me… the airplay pop-up screen (launched from the audible now-playing screen) listed my HomePod mini stereo pair right under “Speakers & TVs”.
