Nearly all of my local tracks were ripped from CD’s into Apple Lossless (ALAC). Roon seems to prefer the FLAC versions on Qobuz to the local files, even if they have the same KHZ and Bit Rate.
Call me old fashioned, but I’d prefer the local track to one being streamed. I realize that I can set a primary version of an album accordingly, but is there anyway to set this preference universally?
I’ve moved your post from the Support category to the Roon Software Discussion category since your question is more of a “how do I do this?” question rather than a request for support for a technical issue.
I can’t answer the question, but I’ve read that ALAC requires a lot more cpu to decode, compared to FLAC, which might be why Roon prefers streaming FLAC, over local ALAC, for the same sample/bitrate?
