Super! Now is it possible to run Roon Core on my QNAP where all my music files reside?

If so things could be about to get interesting.  Smile

Sort of, depending on what one you've got and how much effort/time you want to invest.  There's no 'official version' as yet, and they still seem to be of the opinion that they aren't happy with the performance / user experience using a NAS as a RoonServer Core.

https://community.roonlabs.com/t/how-to-...p-nas/6996 - this person tried via VM Windows and Linux in this topic.

Thanks, will take a look. So I'd probably have to set up another PC or Mac in the chain then... probably not going to happen. I am just too used to having everything sitting on a QNAP with minimal fuss and RAID redundancy. In fact my whole system is optimised around this. 

The other showstopper for me is the lack of Qobuz integration since I just can't get on with Tidal. I know it's not ROON's fault but still an important consideration...
