I consider these to be VERY reasonable questions. I would also want to know what percentage of my monthly fee is Redbook and MQA? I would love to keep my existing software (Bitpferfect and iTunes) and stream Tidal through Bitperfect and keep the bitperfect chain of loading the songs in RAM.Īnd, if Tidal one day has MQA files, I want the same quality I have now without changing software providers (Bitperfect and iTunes) or my hardware. If I am wrong, I would like for people to explain this to me. There it is, the Syndicate of 3.įull disclosure: That guy on Audiostream is me. Of course MQA does not want you to rebuy your music. When I listen to music, I PUT DOWN the iPad and listen! Roon is out for me.īut it seems (according to some reviewers), that Roon is pretty much needed for optimal Tidal integration.
Bitperfect tidal drivers#
Tidal + WASAPI via Toslink with latest Realtek drivers crashes often. And yet, whether I'm using Plex (where I. Not only that but with support for 4K and HDR, I think the Roku should be more than powerful enough to support bit-perfect audio. But seems some bits might get cut off (not sure about this, it does show locked/synced at 96/24, e.g., with Tidal playback, but bit-perfect test is stuck at 16 bits). Bit-Perfect or Hi-Res audio seems like a really simple thing to support in 2020, especially since over HDMI, you should be using the DAC of whatever the Roku is plugged into. I NEVER do that! When I watch a movie, I WATCH it!. Tidal + WASAPI via Toslink (stock Windows drivers, no RME drivers used at all) does autoswitch RME unit.
Bitperfect tidal movie#
Roon is like the special features on Blu Ray I never use! I am watching a movie, and I could go online to find out things about the movie making process while watching the movie, etc. If someone could answer that, I would appreciate it.īut I keep hearing that Tidal is great with Roon. I don't know if the other players like JRiver, Amarra, etc can stream Tidal with their decoding engines. The software I use (Bitperfect) cannot function with Tidal. And a lot of people have music collections that DWARF mine! I asked a very good question in another story about MQA who will rebuy their music? It would cost me very conservatively in the 5 figures (around 25,000$ US dollars) to rebuy my music in MQA at an average price of 20-25$ per album. Are there any players that can load tunes into RAM and play them back bit perfectly through Tidal? can do this to music played from a local NAS or even streamed from Tidal as well. It gives playback back to iTunes (not bit perfect). This supports bit-perfect audio in both lossless PCM and DSD formats. Bit perfect has to "know" which tunes are coming up next to load them into RAM and play them "Bitperfectly".įrom what I now, Bitperfect cannot function this way with Tidal.
