Hi,
I have a new Mac Studio with the M1 Max chip. It replaced an Intel Mac Mini that was my Roon core. I thought I was doing my research by looking up posts here re: Roon functionality with the M1 chip, which users have raved about.
But today, after playing about 4 songs, everything stopped. Multiple Roon restarts - nothing. Multiple Mac restarts - nothing.
Am I really just out of luck having just dropped $2K+ on a new machine?
The latest build (931) is running very smoothly on my Mac mini M1 so no, I don’t think you’re out of luck, but it does sound as though there’s something that needs sorting out. I’d suggest posting in the support thread so support can follow up. Try to add as much info to each of the support headings as it will make it easier to diagnose the problem and/or suggest solutions.
By the way, good screen name. Monty Python sketch or the metal band?
We’re sorry to hear that you’re having some issues with Roon on your New M1 Mac. As @DaveN mentioned quite a few of our customers are using Roon on Apple silicon with great results. I’m sure we can get you going.
I’ve moved your report to the Support channel and added the setup template to your post above. Can you please fill that out with as much detail as possible and tell us what you’re having trouble with? Thanks!
Hi - thanks @Jamie for sending me the service request template. Latest build is running now so I may be fine. We’ll see. I can get back to you if things change. For now, here’s my response to the form:

Hi,

But today, after playing about 4 songs, everything stopped. Multiple Roon restarts - nothing. Multiple Mac restarts - nothing. At the suggestion of others in the community, I noted a new Roon build, so just installed it and music is playing fine right now.
I will be in touch if anything changes. Thank you!
