When the original file plays; Roon seems to be seeing it as an MQA stream and not playing because 24/192 is causing an error - Critical: threadpoolsynchronizationcontext: System.ArgumentException: MQA decoder does 1x->2x but got sample rate 192000 Which both makes me curious and annoyed with the provider and …
