Yes, that's a 256mbps MP3... I checked my 6 playlists each containing
200 tracks and I found 2 MP3's. Rest is FLAC. Not bad, 2 out of 1200...

Another thing with Tidal... If you start making playlists in the Tidal
app be aware that the changes are not visible in LMS right away. That
may take even up to 24 hours. Don't ask me why that is. What helped for
me was that I created an Ickstream account thru which I now play all my
Tidal and Qobuz content. Fast, easy and free...

Hey prutser,
Can you give an example of one of those MP3 albums so I can check
whether I have the same result.
I also have a Tidal Hires subscription.

Good - I've tried an install of 7.9 on my Windows PC and this works. 
Will now bite the bullet and upgrade my Votexbox to the latest version
which has an up to date LMS.
Many thanks.

Try to upgrade your LMS to a newer version. 7.9.0 or 7.9.1 
There have been a lot of changes since 7.7.2
