Roon ARC and Ubuntu - just need to open new port in firewall

[Charles_Snider (Chas Sniding)]

Hi
Just updated my core, desktop, etc. to Roon 2.0, and then downloaded Roon ARC to my cell phone. I next opened the desktop application to configure Settings>Roon ARC. Before this connected, I had to open the following firewall port in UFW on Ubuntu box:

sudo ufw allow 40229/tcp comment roonarc

I then cut wifi on my phone and guess what, I’m streaming!

Roon, please add Roon Arc to the Microsoft Store!

Unfortunately, there is no Windows Roon ARC app.

@Jim_F

ately, there is no Windows Roon ARC app.

Hopefully the answer is… Yet?

Roon ARC on Windows?

Hello! Is there a Roon ARC for Windows? It works great from Android but I would like to use it in the office from my Windows PC. Best Marco

Note that the port was chosen by Roon, and showed up under Settings>Roon Arc. I imagine it could be custom.
