Hi! What’s not quite right with Roon?

· None of the above quite fits

Tell us what's going on

· I am trying out Roon as Core om my MacBook Pro m3 using piCore player/(LMS switched off now!) using my Magna Ultra mk2 streamer. Roon works pretty good here except for two things: it always downgrades HR files to 44.1khz and give starting clicks. These two things are probably linked. I tried a lot already last weekend to get this fixed without result. Hope you can help. Thanks in advance! Kind regards Han

Hey @hansamwel,

Thanks for the screenshot and welcome to the fourm! It looks like you are trying to play via AirPlay, and AirPlay is limited to 44.1 kHz. How were you previously getting higher sample rates? Is “Roon mode” turned on for your streamer? I was able to locate the following guide, please review this and let us know if there is anything specific you are getting stuck on:
