Extensions. An idiots guide

Ray_Mills · April 30, 2020, 3:47pm

I read a lot about extensions but can find very little information on how to install them. Is there a guide somewhere?
Am I correct in saying that extensions can not be installed on ROCK?

You can’t use rock.
I haven’t installed myself but you can install the extension manager on Pi or windows probably others…
The pi guide is below

Thanks Ged.
I have rock/nuc. I guess thats why I have been having difficulty.

Yes you need to install it on something else. A raspberry pi would be the cheapest thing you can leave on.

The Extension Manager also has its own Wiki:

Is there a way to add the Onkyo extension to the repository?

I’ve literally never been able to figure out Roon extensions. I’m on Mac and I believe it only works on Linux?
