im asking the same question i've been trying to find out why and if it is mqa or not and how do I decode it
when I use the cli it shows codec - mqa
Then the max quality is 48khz for every track I downloaded in
https://tidal.com/browse/playlist/49449ad7-e86c-4dce-b601-586e16e82a0a
When it's supposed to be 192khz flac.

Before i made this question, I did ask Google Bard to answer about the MQA format. I asked it "Are the MQA file format shows as .flac too?". It answered, "While MQA files often use the .flac extension, the presence of a .flac file alone doesn't guarantee MQA content. Look for specific MQA indicators or use compatible devices/software to verify and experience MQA audio."
But this is still raised a question for me about the Sample rate, why when we download the HiRes or MQA, it's only get 24bit/48kHz, and not getting 92kHz or 192kHz. Are this is related to OS limitation, since the tidal-gui
client uses Android Auto or this is just how it works/what we get.

I wrote a while ago on another thread a comment about how MQA works, before even HiRes FLAC was announced.
Only a MQA decoder can read MQA file over 44.1/48 KHz.
MQA is stored using the FLAC container, so it is basically a flac file
MQA 44.1/88.2 KHz audios are stored on a 44.1 KHz FLAC file
MQA 48/96/192 KHz audios are stored on a 48 KHz FLAC fileA non-MQA player will read FLAC file as a normal 44.1/48 KHz file, but a MQA decorer will extract 88.2/96/192
The original file of the music you're asking is HiRes FLAC 24bit 96kHz. As I said about MQA, 96kHz are stored on 48kHz sample rate, so that's why the downloaded files are 24bit-48kHz while the HiRes on your phone is 24bit-96kHz.
You can't download HiRes FLAC on tidal-dl/gui yet (with some other tools you can actually do it, but is harder to do it and involves other software), therefore you're stuck on MQA on tidal-dl/gui for now
