Need Roon Advice.


Hello,

I'm new to Roon and have found their forum difficult to navigate. It's challenging to get a simple answer. On top of that, I'm not a computer wiz. I assume many of you use Roon and I hope you can help me.

I plan on using a separate PC just for Roon. I use Qobuz and have downloaded the required software. So far, I like it but I have an awful lot to learn.

When one is finished listening, how do you log off? I can disconnect but it's cumbersome to start all over when you decide to listen again. Maybe you just do not log off? Just stay connected. Regarding Roon ARC, it looks like you must leave your computer on and connected to use it. 

Thanks for your expertise!

As other have suggested ROON should run on a dedicated server.  I run mine on a Small Green Computer (SGC) with Sonic Transport OS.  I never turn  it off, its a server and it runs  24 x 7 365  sans planned shutdowns. I never log out of roon or the music service.  Just fire up the app on my phone,pc or ipad and off we go.
