No I don't. The distortions are very different. It seems to suffer from compression artifacts. And I can't figure out why they would resample from 44.1 to something else.Do you think it was resampled?

I bought my Chromecast Audio months ago and did not upgrade it to work with Roon as I tested.Does Roon require a recent firmware revision on the CCA?

I can't think of any feature we put in WMA Pro to make it work better in this manner.P.S. When I tested gapless in lossy formats years ago WMA Pro was the clear winner. @amirm was that deliberate or fluke?
Yes. If I am not mistaken, I bought it last year. But I think I powered it on 3-4 months ago and it may have updated then.Did you buy yours before Roon officially supported it?

There is definitely pipeline differences between codecs/implementations.Perhaps you didn't put but instead removed padding?

I received the announcement from Roon on 7/6/2018 and I am fairly certain that was after I powered it on.
If I were Roon, I would implement gapless playback in a device independent way by prefetching future tracks and streaming them together.
It does. Most of that is to pay for the metadata they had to license. I purchased a lifetime license for some $400 a few years ago. It is worth every penny. Some of the best software ever written.Does Roon really cost USD$119 per year? To manage you own music?

Roon treats my library and Tidal as one in the same. When I find something on Tidal, I just tell it to "add to my library" and from there on, it is indistinguishable from my ripped and downloaded high-res music. As you though, most of my consumption these days is from Tidal through Roon.How do you use it? You have a big collection of off-line music? I'm mostly streaming these days, Tidal/Spotify. I always thought it was kind of useless for streaming.
While pretty old now, here is my review of Roon I wrote: https://audiosciencereview.com/foru...er-and-library-management-software-review.18/
