Roon Display on Browser or Small WIndow?

Roon Software Discussion

Is there a way to either display the track I’m playing on a browser like Chrome or is there a small pop-up window available? Every time I want to see what’s playing I have to toggle back to the app.

I tried to cut and paste the display link from Settings into a Chrome Browser window, but I am not sure if my security settings are blocking it as all I see on the webpage is the Roon logo.

Thanks

If you click on the volume icon on the lower right of your Roon app window, you’ll find the screen icon. Click it and from there you can start the display.

This screen icon will only be visible as long as you have the Roon Display URL open in your browser.

If you also want to change tracks, volume, or zone (instead of just see what’s playing) install Roon Extensions + the Web Controller extension.

I put some tips here.

Looks like this and dynamically scales to any size. There are also options for Light, Dark, or Dynamic background (the latter below, matching the cover art).
