Uncertified Roon Ready devices announcement

[danny (Danny Dulai)]

@Stephen_Seay

have a Roon Ready Uncertified device (Bricasti M3).

They have submitted stuff to us, and I’m hoping they will be certified soon, but I can’t promise anything.

@Stephen_Seay

So are you saying I can disable and reenable it after September 21st and it will still work on my current iMac Roon server?

No, you can not do that. However if you take a backup of your roon database on the Mac and restore it on RoonOS, you will be able to migrate the current state. You can avoid all this by upgrading to RoonOS before Sept 21.

@SKBubba

Sounds like a good thing? If you’re going to have standards you need to enforce them. Otherwise, what’s the point?

Exactly!

@SKBubba

I just hope roon is big enough and important enough to drop the big hammer and make anyone notice.

Hard to say… But if we don’t enforce it, it’ll undermine the program’s trust and that’ll result in failure.

@Larry_Gelman

Just to clarify. If I’m not seeing a pink “uncertified “ sign next to my devices I’m good to go?

Correct.

@Speed_Racer

Does this apply to networked devices only?

It only applies to uncertified Roon Ready devices. There are networked devices affected and networked devices that are unaffected. It has nothing to do with networking.

@xxx

how did you know who would be affected?

The certification check happens on our cloud services since the configuration is pulled from there. It’s how we can certify devices without software updates.
