Roon supports Devialet AIR

[Jantje BEton]

I have downloaded the Roon trial.
Can't say I like the interface much, very like my Sooloos Control 15 which sounds great but I don't like using.
The notes about the music are probably a valuable distraction if the music is awful and it takes your mind off it
Not tried it much yet though but since Qobuz aren't playing with them and on balance I prefer playing the CD or LP to streaming from the computer if I own the music, even to the extent I have burned a couple of 24/96 files to 16/44 CDs so I can listen to them as CDs...

I asked and received my trial refund, nice behavior of Roon.

IMHO the SQ of Air (J River) and Roon is the same but even when you buy every update of J River it's much cheaper.

I explained to the guys of Roon what I disliked, I feel much the same as f1eng:

• I'm missing about 100 albums (out of 2600). I checked this by running a PHP script using the ID3 functions to confirm this
  

• I'm missing Genre's (51 Roon compared to 62 using PHP)
  
• Genre tags are dynamically/virtually added by Roon while they are not defined on the file while I configured "from file" instead of "from ROON" in the settings
  
• I control everything from an iPad. I dislike horizontal scrolling, all my appps use vertical scrolling. I couldn't find a setting to adjust this behavior to my liking.
  
• Lyrics that are stored on the files (LYRICS tag) are not preferred. Lyrics are always found at the Internet (aka a public Internet connection is needed).
  
• The size of the graphics of the album covers are not sizeable. Because of this too few album are shown on a Ipad screen.
  
• To much information is displayed by default which makes the screen cluttered. Information should be available on demand only (like Roon lyrics).
  
• I've organized my 40000 tracks / 2600 albums heavenly if not only on ALBUMARTIS. Roon "Artist" is organized on (TRACK)ARTIST. Because of this views not always show me what I'm expecting.
  
• I prefer to use my iPad in a portrait orientation which is not possible with the Roon app.
