How do I get the signal path to reflect the blue or silver star instead of just green circle for high quality? What do I turn off or click to do this?
For the moment I am just using a Dragonfly Red DAC and Meridian Explorer 2 DAC.
Listening to Roon both Tidal and Qobuz and the signal path says ‘high quality’ at top and alternates blue/gray star indicating enhanced or lossless going down.
When I listen to Tidal on Roon it plays enhanced that blue or gray star but Qobuz and Roon itself playing my playlists etc. only have green dot.
It must be something I did in setup but can’t figure out how to correct it.
I am awaiting the arrival of new Schiit Gungnir Multibit and Raggy 2 and would like highest quality signal path.
The sound with ‘high quality’ sounds fine but would prefer enhanced/lossless for entire path.
What you using as the streaming part connected to the DAC, streamer, computer, tablet, phone? If you using Android you wont get anything other than a greenlight as Roon does not bypass system audio. Show a picture of your signal path and list your devices in the chain.
@Rugby thanks took screen shots but don’t really know how to send them BUT @rrwwss52 ‘fixed’ the ‘problem’ i did have volume control clicked incorrectly turned that off everything is now "enhanced’ or ‘lossless’ which is highest quality sound correct?? will let you know if everything stays as is in meantime do send instructions on how to send screenshots for the future

When you are making a post there is an Icon on the task bar called upload, as shown in the pic below. clicking that allows you to upload a pic on your computer.
Ultimately, I’m not sure you can tell the difference between lossless and the green high quality dot. In my setup, two of my endpoints have the software volume control activated. At full volume (0db) it shows lossless. When I drop the volume one click (-1db) it changes from lossless to high quality (green dot). I don’t hear a quality change.
