Hi @ivan, I just realized I need to do more testing, but I wanted to flag this in any case. My issue may actually be related to RoonOS 3.0 and the upgraded flac libraries as announced in the 272 release notes. I’ll revert the OS to production to test.
Details
I’m using Chord’s older ASIO driver bundled in “Windows-10-768KHz-driver.zip”. I have never been able to get their newer ASIO driver to work, but the old one has always been reliable for me on both Windows 10 and 11.
As described in the title, 32 bit 705.6 and 768 kHz files will not play in Roon. It attempts four, skipping each one quickly and then giving up with “Too many failures. Stopping Playback.” 384 kHz files and below still play without issue with the ASIO driver.
Initially I thought Windows probably updated something, and I’m out of luck now since I’m using fairly old drivers (and may still be). However, I just looked through the various logs and found this in RoonServer_log.txt. It appears my server may be having trouble encoding the 705.6 and 768 kHz tracks for RAAT.
When I take a 16 bit 44.1 kHz track and use Muse to convert it to 705.6 or 768 kHz, I get the same behavior with Chord ASIO and the same error in the server logs.
My two attempts to revert to the production OS for testing have failed. I will try again later.
Hi, @gsuzor91, thank you for the report. The support team brought up the same report but from a Windows machine running RoonServer and we are actively investigating it. That said, it’s unlikely to be related to the recent RoonOS 3.0, but more likely to be related to the recent RoonServer update. At least, this is our current theory.
As for the production version rollback on RoonOS, are you still willing to do that?
I’m still willing to roll back the OS to see if that changes anything, though after tomorrow it will be about a week before I can try anything else.
So far, my attempts have ended with Failure exitcode 40. I know there were some rollback issues earlier, so not certain if this is related or not since I believe I’m getting a different exitcode. Are there different steps I need to follow than the typical instructions?
Chord ASIO
I’m now on Roon 1665 and I can play 705.6 and 768 kHz files again with Chord ASIO (old drivers). I’m still on the same OS. I skipped 1663 because of the other reported issues, so I don’t know if 1663 or 1665 resolved the Chord ASIO issue. I’ll keep this open for a bit, since I’ve only played a couple of tracks so far.
I didn’t see any mention of this being fixed in the release notes.
RoonOS 3.0
For reverting the OS back to production, I’m still willing to help test that. Perhaps we can track it in @RiMac’s thread.
Hi, @gsuzor91, thank you for the follow-up. There was indeed a tentative fix for this issue in #1663, and I am glad it’s worked. As for the rollback issue, we are still looking into it.
