My main PC is an iMac with external drive containing my music.
The iMac is in my study and the hifi in the lounge. There is no ethernet cabling in my house. I mostly attempt to use Air over wifi straight from the iMac and I manage to get it going with a bit of persuasion about 60% of the time. When my patience runs out I have a little Asus 10 inch notebook connected to wifi that I use as a RoonBridge connected to the Devialet via USB. The problem is that Air sounds SO MUCH BETTER than USB.
Is it possible to install Air on the Asus laptop together with Roonbridge and then connect to the Devialet via Ethernet. So the signal then goes from Roon on the iMac to Roonbridge (wifi) on the Asus laptop through Air Ethernet to the Devialet?
As a side note, I attempted to load Roon directly on the Asus but due to limitations with screen resolution, Roon refuses to work. If I could get this option work, my problem would have been solved.
Insight and words of wisdom are appreciated. .....
