see my comment above - don't think the samsung TV outputs the MQA stream from tidal (unless anyone knows different?) I was thinking of running it through a schiit modi 3, if I can get a hold of one. I'm in two minds about continuing the tidal sub after the free six months is up tbf - annoying that spotify still hasn't brought out a hi res plan.
don't need anymore subs in my life : / will be a big cull post-lockdown/covid...
I do this, it works great. No drop-out issues like I get with both Chromecast and Allo USBridge.
Edit: you’ll only get MQA if you use an MQA dac even if your source can output it. The only one I have is a dragonfly red which can’t take optical. I’ve used it wired from my phone to my headphone amp and it still sounds less agreeable than my Topping from the TV to my ears.
