HiFiBerryOS + Digi+ Pro = Roon Endpoint?

[Taz777]

I have a spare RPI 4 with a HiFiBerry Digi+ Pro HAT. If I install HiFiBerry OS on it, will it function as a Roon Endpoint?

I want to use the digital coax output on the Digi+ Pro to connect to my amplifier.

Personally I would recommend Ropieee.org

Thanks! I do have Ropieee under consideration too. However, given that the HAT is from HiFiBerry, I was wondering whether or not there would be any advantages to using HiFiBerryOS.

The Digi+ Pro is supported by Ropieee so I would have thought that either HiFiBerry OS or Ropieee should be fine.

Yes, works fine.

Yes, it will. I use HiFiBerryOS and Digi+ Pro HAT as Roon bridge.

You can also try unofficial Tidal Connect Docker.
In some cases it’s quite useful.

It looks like your image requires some additional components from HiFiBerryOS (beocreate), isn’t it? Or can I run it on a plain Raspberry PI?

It requires HiFiBerryOS itself. Install the docker according to the instructions.
Visit HiFiBerry community for additional information.
Not sure if it will work on a different Pi OS without additional tweaks.

Hi I have been using an RPI 4 HiFiBerry Digi+ Pro HAT with HiFiBerry OS for nearly 2 years now, and i has worked like charm all the time. No problems whatsoever.
