HQ Player available via LMS extension

Hi @jussi_laako one of the old Roon community members here (CrystalGipsy) moved on from Roon to LMS and has been developing some excellent LMS extensions over the last few months. His latest extension is called HQPlayer Bridge and creates an endpoint in LMS that allows direct playback to HQPlayer.

It works really well as I have been helping beta test for a while and now it is available as a standard extension, so it is available for anyone to use. It also has a nice live player view showing what is happening in the extension

There is an. easy solution for setup through an extension App

Not sure if it is something you want to add to your web site as an additional control point, but as both a Roon and LMS user, I have found that I have been using LMS to play to HQP more recently than Roon so thought it worth mentioning here.

If anyone uses LMS you can find his extensions within the normal plugin sections just by typing CrystalGipsy in the search box

Looks very nice! I’m certainly happy to list it on our website as well!

Thank you for the update!

Thanks for agreeing to put that up, it will give it a bit more visibility and hopefully find more users and maybe entice some LMS users over to HQP as well. It has certainly increased my listening time with HQP over the last couple of months.

With an Eversolo T10 coming for delivery soon to feed the Gustard R30 I imagine I will do most of my listening with HQP and need to look at upgrading to V6 and maybe Embedded.

Hi Mike you should look at the T10 NAA thread, there are some…bugs…with the T10 implementation that may, or may not, matter to you.

Thanks Dan I have read the posts and I am hopeful that it does not impact me as my R30 has been working fine with both 44.1 and 48 based playback with both internal streamer and Pi. At worst I have the R30 NAA and Raspberry Pi if needed and use the T10 for all my non HQP playback (though that feels like I would be missing out on features).

I do hope that Eversolo do push out updates to fix these issues though, as when you spend that much money you want reliable and updated software.

This is a great plugin for lms, lyrion. Now all my servers - roon, lms, jplay, veravox can play to the same endpoint. lms is my preference for sound.
