Snakeoil Music server & Snakeoil its own endpoint
#1
As I found that in my setup, even my fanless NUC for ROON is highly modified with a good LPS directly attached to it, I found after using a pi as bridge https://www.snakeoil-os.net/forums/threa...ml#pid6802, the sound is much different (to my ear is much better in those aspects I understand).  In my understanding that, Roon bridge collects data from server and stored several seconds of music data as buffer in ram, and then output to the USB or whatever digital output.  As the process is rather straight forward and with such data buffer in ram, then the jitter and latency will be the lowest value in that piece of hardware (ie. pi in this topic).

I wonder, can Snakeoil OS do the same thing?  I mean, e.g. Snakeoil music server (whatever the player is), and then a Snakeoil bridge.  Of course, maybe it can be set as an option to enable/disable, to minimize the background process in the host. Big Grin
