Roon RAAT and "An audio file is loading slowly"

[Antoine]

I remember reading about similar issues and found the discussion.

See here: https://audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic...ent=914538

Considering what’s posted here in this topic about 100mbps vs 1gbit this (the check whether 802.3x flow control is enabled in the Devialet and any network equipment in front of it) could be worth investigating.

NB. Not a user of Devialet streaming tech myself.

Interesting consideration and would seem to correlate with the Roon RAAT issue with the Expert Pros, but it would seem that if this were an issue in the Expert Pro, then AIR wouldn't work on a gigabit network either.   Yet it does.   My guess is that it is an issue with Devialet's implementation of RAAT, but I can't quite see how it works for so many UNLESS they are all running at 10/100 mbps or wireless.

Sorry, I missed your reply. Regarding what you said about it not being an issue with AIR; this does indeed seem to rule out the possibility of flow control being an issue. However it could be RAAT is more bursty in nature so sending traffic at a much higher rate to fill the buffers than  AIR. With AIR, being the virtual soundcard, one might not hit some sort of limit. Of course I’m just theorizing here, also ruling this out might be impossible for any Devialet owner since we have no control over the ethernet settings of the Devialet itself.


I hope the issue will be resolved soon so the workarounds are no longer necessary!
