The telltale for Airplay 2 is that the client will present checkboxes for selecting multiple endpoints for multiroom audio.
Aha.
Once I enabled the Airplay renderer on several moOde 8.2.1 instances I found could choose more than one from the iPad and stream to them simultaneously. Sweet!
Over the years, I've come across a number of comments on the InterWeb which claim to know the upper limits of Airplay/Airplay 2 encoding parameters. Every commentator claims to be citing one Apple presentation or another. I can find nothing directly attributable to Apple of course.
The Qobuz "Hi-Res" badge is worthless if Airplay immediately downsamples its stream.
