Hi Bill,


My wife and I have been listening to your fantastic radio station for years. We donate money to you every year.We have regular forum discussions and feature wish lists in the Roon community.

There are many RP listeners & supporters in the Roon community.

Roon has made great strides in implementing many FLAC radio streams but keeps stating that RP needs a standard FLAC stream and then could be integrated. Please provide Normal Lossless FLAC stream output for us.

Please consider adding this functionality and the Room community will all be turned on to RP due to recommendation in the very active forum. You would gain main more contributing supporters.

I think it would be a win win…

Heres hoping…

Unfortunately, it's not quite that easy. There's no such thing as a "normal lossless FLAC stream". The other stations that Roon carries in FLAC are really just playlists of files, without the song transitions, DJ breaks, etc. that are an integral part of RP. They're not really streams at all, in the traditional sense.

We're exploring ways to provide a FLAC equivalent to our AAC, Ogg & MP3 streams, but the software tools for that are just not there. 

We do have a way to implement a FLAC "stream", but it requires a bit of software at the receive end. There are implementation of that for the Logitech  & JRiver media servers, and we're working with Bluesound & they have that working in a test version. I'm certainly open to working with Roon as well, but at this point what they're asking for just isn't possible.
