Roon endpoint: microRendu
Roon 1.7
IPad running 1.7.005 updated today

After upgrading to 1.7 everything worked as before, when streaming 96/24 files from Qubuz.

Today, I am getting bursts of high frequency noise, making listening HELL,

Hope someone has a solution - otherwise I will have to cancel my Roon subscription and stream from Qubuz directly.

Thank you

Have you rebooted everything?

Hi @Claus_Jensen1,

Does the same behavior occur if you play to System Output?

Dylan,

I am not a techie, but a newbie. I don’t understand your question about “playing to system output”.

6

Yes, I have rebooted everything several times.

If you play to the windows speakers/headphone jack does it still do the same thing.

Hi @Claus_Jensen1 — You can enable System Output by going to Settings > Audio. From there you can choose that as your endpoint from the Zone Picker and play directly to the speakers of your computer.

Yes, the same noise occurs when I play the 96/24 stream out of my windows laptop directly.
It happens about 8 minutes into the stream (Berlioz Symphony Fantastique with Valery Gergiev and the London Symphony Orchestra.

Found the culprit! The file that I referred to above is evidently corrupt, perhaps due to the transfer from the original SACD by LSO.
You can probably duplicate this to verify, if you are interested.

In any event, Roon plays 24/96 streams from other record labels without a hiccup - and I am again a happy camper.

Thank you for helping me figure this out!
