Roon ARC from Windows or Mac?

Is there a web based or Mac/Win client for Roon Arc to access Roon from a computer?

Not from Roon.
WIN 11 boasts its Subsystem for Android
I only see Android emulators for MAC

Make sure to report back once you’ve tested things…

@Archimago has a post up on how to use BlueStacks for running ARC on Windows.

I tried to install Roon ARC on Windows Subsystem for Android with no succes (unknown error). It crashes when synchronizing with Roon Core.

A web-based ARC sounds really interesting. I just wonder what would happen to audio quality? Browsers have limited codec support I guess? Transcoding?

It should be trivial to have a simple Windoze or Mac or Java app?

The latest Roon ARC installs without problems on Windows Subsystem for Android (but fails to login and synchronize).

I also wish there was such a windows program to remotely access rooncore

I didn’t spend a lot of time on it, but I tried Bluestacks at work and when I hit play on an album it would crash and take me back to the main store screen in their app.

I had the exact same problem.

Windows just updated Phone Link recently to allow external audio and I can confirm it works and plays back
