MQA from TIDAL via ROON on DCS Bartok

[Tomasz_Naruszewicz]

I have ROON Core on PC with Windows 10

Network is connected by Ubiquitil Gigabit Switch ( Toughswitch 8 ports)

I am using DCS Bartok/DAC to play music from ROON Core ( the same PC machine for roon core and storage of 2 SSD disks)

My problem is :
Low quality playing from TIDAL, no matter what i choose - flac or MQA
I always have in network path AAC 44.1 Khz 24 bit instead of MQA 192Khz 24 bit :

even if I play MQA or Flac the signal path doesn’t change when i am using Tidal.

teh settings of DCS Bartok are :

What could be wrong ?

aaaa

[ged_hickman1]

You need to set it to Master.

[Tomasz_Naruszewicz]

There is no such an option
drama
Roon is to expensive to fight with so stupid issue

Yes, there is, unless you don’t have that subscription with Tidal.

Hi @Tomasz_Naruszewicz,

Are you using the latest version of Roon? You can check under Roon Settings -> About and it should list build 517. Do you have a TIDAL HiFI subscription or a “Premium” (not HiFi) subscription?

It does sound like you have the Streaming Quality lowered, so once you bump it up I suspect you will stream the proper album rate.

Do let us know how it goes!
