Roon supports Devialet AIR

[Sylvain27]

I never had what most describe as white noise with AIR, only ever crackles.

My droupouts felt like neither - just a very brief and obvious dropout.  Hasn't reoccurred today, so will keep an eye on everything.

Hello,
I have found a very interesting article here : https://helpdesk.flexradio.com/hc/en-us/...erformance
Having changed my PC configuration recently, I forgot to change the settings of my ethernet adapter and this article helped me a lot.
I went back to buffer = 50 ms (very aggressive but very useful to do tests because problems occur quickly!).
With default settings of the Ethernet adapter, I always had dropouts in less than 5 minutes. Using Windows task manager and looking to the Ethernet perfomance, the dropouts can be seen easily : flow drops to 0 Mbit/s and then takes its normal value again (about 8 Mbit/s with a 192kHz 24 bit audio file).
I changed some basic settings of the Internet Adapter : not allowing Windows to power off the network adapter, disabling Green Ethernet, etc.)
After these changes, no more dropouts (the flow curve never dropped as before), but still some noises from time to time (buffer = 50 ms).
I tried buffer = 100 ms and played a whole album 24 bit 192 kHz without problem (no noise, neither NAK pattern in the log file).

Network adapter settings seem very important (factory settings caused dropouts with my system).
I'm waiting for recommendations from Roon team.
  Have a nice day,
Sylvain
