I occasionally look to see if there’s any progress on this, and came across a (now closed) thread on the Roon forum.
The final response was:
“Roon can play over many different protocols which allows it to work across a wide range of products. AirPlay is just one of these. Roon has its own streaming protocol called RAAT which is lossless and supports the highest pcm and DSD and MQA it’s what devices that are called Roon Ready use. Roon provided their own lightweight Roon bridge software to allow playback via this on computers. It can be installed on windows, Mac, and Linux. I suggest you read up on Roon from the knowledge base. This is accessible from the support section in the app. If you’re using Volumio Roon bridge can be installed on it.”
What does this actually mean??
I currently have two options for running Roon, either as an app on Windows 11, or on a NUC as the Rock install.
I then use my iPhone’s Roon app to play stuff.
Does anyone know what the above quoted text actually means? What can be achieved in the Roon/Spotify space?
Thanks for any advice.
