Help with Wifi and Display

I am trying to configure my rasperberry pi 4 model b 2019 4gb and I am running into problems with the wifi and official 7" display. I have it connected to a Schiit Modius/Magnius stack. I am using a 2018 MacBook Pro as my server. The only extension showing in Roon is spockfish remote control.

First, the wifi is not working. I have it plugged in via USB to the Modius and it will play music if I am using ethernet. I went into the setting on RoPiee and I activate wifi and entered my password (rebooted too).

Also the display turns on and get to the RoPiee is ready section. It play music, but stays on that screen and does not show the album cover. I have the name of the DAC in Roon and Ropiee name in setting the same (SchiitRopieee).

I also can’t load ropieeexl.local now. Still plays music though.

Regarding the display, I assume you have enabled the extension in Roon and set the Roon Control zone on the Display tab?

Regarding the URL, did you change the name as per your first note? This would explain the change in behavior. You can use the IP address instead.

When I go to the display tab, it says no displays available and it gives me a web display URL

Sorry. The Display tab of the RoPieee web GUI.

In the display (ropieee GUI) and audio settings (roon) zone must be identical and case matters.

Also you must in roon settings extensions enable and pair the remote for the ropieee

If there is no display tab shown in ropieee you perhaps have not got it connected or need to start a fresh flash of ropieee on an sd card, and install again.
