Hi, having problems with Roon,
1/ Have a sony 4k 65" tv monitor, when Roon displays on screen it takes entire screen up and there is no way to minimize Roon, have to go to community in drop down menu where Tidal and settings are displayed.
2/ Is there an issue between Devialet Air and Roon? When I use Air Ethernet and Roon, my system crashes every time

Hi @Bonnie_Bradley ----- Thank you for the post and sharing your feedback with us. Both are very appreciated!
Moving forward, I am going to address each of your questions one at a time. Please see below.
“1/ Have a sony 4k 65” tv monitor, when Roon displays on screen it takes entire screen up and there is no way to minimize Roon, have to go to community in drop down menu where Tidal and settings are displayed."
The cause of this behavior is either Roon is opening in “full screen mode” or the resolution may not be meeting the needed requirements as we need 768 pixel (of height) to run properly. If it is the former, you could try toggling between Roon’s fullscreen and windowed settings a couple of times to see if that clears things up. Use the F11 key on your keyboard to do this.
“2/ Is there an issue between Devialet Air and Roon? When I use Air Ethernet and Roon, my system crashes every time”
Can you please confirm that you have the 440 Expert pro configured as recommended in our knowledge base?
“3/Downloaded all files into Roon, some from 2TB external drive, when I disconnect external drive most of the files I downloaded disappear and only reappear when I connect the 2 TB drive back in.”
The reason the content seems to “disappear” and “reappear” when the storage device is mounted/unmounted, is due to the fact that Roon is watching files in “real time”. So in order for the application to retain the content, the storage device must stay in “contact” with the Roon core. If you using the external drive for other tasks, I would consider moving your media to local storage on your core machine, if possible.
“4/ Really unsure what settings to used in the DSP or Setup for my system, could you help me out with that?”
I would suggest posting this question in the “Roon Software” thread as these settings you are mentioning vary from user to user based on what their needs are and also what equipment is being used.

As mentioned, I am using a 4K monitor with resolution set at 3840 by 2160 The only option is full screen, when I toggle I either have full screen or no other option, full screen is all I get and not way to minimize.
