Honestly dont think this 3.0 version is based or ment to work on anything than using air via computer files/Tidal/Itunes etc
BTW works great here with Tidal
Roon is another story

My RoonServer on MacBook computer. Zone selected is Devialet Air - Working perfectly, since last 50 mins.
Yes AIR 3.0 is also on the same MacBoo computer. Using iPad for Roon remote!. Humbly requesting, can you educate me what you meant by "Roon is another story" ?

Has anyone had success with DSD files? I can play all PCM bitrates up to 192 without problems, but when I try DSD I get white noise with the music faintly playing in the background.
Is there some setting in the Mac system preferences or Audio Midi Setup I need to change to get DSD working?
I must say I'm pleasantly surprised by this beta. I'm able to play all PCM files in both Audirvana and Roon.

Same here - tried it with Roon and Air Ethernet and it drops out after approx 3 minutes. I had to reboot my macbook pro as the computer just kept hanging and I was unable to kill the process. I have tried three times, with the same disastrous result. Very disappointing indeed. It always works to stream via apple tv => optical or via usb.
With the settings Jnan_devi described is looks more stable. The music stopt one time but i was able to start it again without doing a hard reset.

AIR stuck/hanged for me too. I had to re-start my MacBook. then I moved to itunes -> AIR 3.0 = worked perfectly. But i re-started Roon just in case and it worked perfectly.
Can you try on you MacBook Settings -> Sound -> Output tab -> Pick up "Internal Speaker" instead of "Devialet Air" ?
I had picked Dev Air and after moving to iTunes and back to Roon, it was automatically on Internal Speakers.
BTW i observed one single Blip (maybe few ms) in music drop. then i increased to 2s on AIR 3.0. Since then no drops at all.

I'm a happy AIR3 user - having been a hopefully polite pain in the a*** with Devialet for two or three years.
So I do find it perverse that it takes quite an effort to find the beta release of AIR3 beta on the website, under Expert Announcements from Yaohan Yang, the guy hiding behind his camera.
Nothing on the core Expert website or even on the AIR technical page. Nothing on My Devialet either!
So, in terms of customer communication, with hungry customers who are potentially enthusiastic Devialet advocates, this is hardly any evidence of something thought through. As Rostron says on that thread on the Devialet webpage, it is only the second post from a Devialet representative shortly following their first post in over a year! And nothing about Windows.
Their communications "strategy" is at best intriguing.

I'm having some trouble when switching between samplerates. Probably a setting in Audirvana, I'll try and look at that sometime during the weekend.
SQ-wise this AIR3 is very good. I'm really enjoying what I'm hearing.
