RS130 User Interface

Newbies:
First, read the RS130 User Manual at [RS130] Owner's Manual : HiFi ROSE

Unique to HiFi Rose Players

The Queue is the primary focus of the RS130’s User Interface ← when you select and press PLAY, the selected item is queued. Music/Video is played as ordered in the queue. Swipe right to left, to see the currently queued items on the right side of the screen.

Following are “How to…” threads that I recommend newbies to read:

Thank you @HMANAZ for the following RoseConnect image – image was copied from RS130 Connection: for best streaming audio quality & best file playback audio quality - #2 by HMANAZ

The above image is the Settings screen. Take Note of the screen’s bottom line which list the different media you can go to (e.g., Music, Video, RoseRadio, RoseTube, etc). So far, the general screen organization of the RoseConnect app seems to be quite intuitive.

The following image shows the “queue”. This image is from @Sebrof at Which Streamer/Transport has the best software - #19 by Sebrof

Sebrof said: On the iPad the queue moves to the right to hide, or moves left to view (it is moved left in the screenshot below). I can tap any song and it will play from that song and then continue playing the next songs in the queue.

Using the queue’s top right icons: The trash can icon allows me to delete what I want in the queue, the up/down icon allows me to move the songs in the queue, and I haven’t figured out what the 3rd icon does (it looks like a file folder??).

You should see how amazing these features are in Roon :slight_smile: Rose is a great streamer the UI/UX not so great.

What does “Classification” top button do? See photo (from [OTA] SW Ver 5.7.05 Software Release ( RS130/RS520/RS150/RS250/RS201) - #235 by Basstech):

@joyofmvid

I have a few questions.

  1. Are you asking because many albums are displayed as Unknown when you set the Genre in Classification?
  2. Is the genre set in the album tag displayed as Unknown?
  3. Please take a picture of the album tag displayed as Unknown and send it to me.

There’s no question. I am only showing the Album Genre display.

For SFP Transceiver Module, see the “Finisar FTLF1318P3BTL vs. Cisco SFP-10G-AOC5M” comparison (May 5, 2023 post) at Finisar SFP+ Modules for Audio Grade Network Switch (Group Buy for Audiophilestyle.com) - Page 8 - AfterDark (Sponsored) - Audiophile Style

  • I’m now considering to buy/trial the Cisco SFP-10G-AOC5M module.

For USB port, see post at Rs130 sfp brands - #14 by PatriceP

Edited Jan 23, 2025:

Be careful,
the Finisar 1318 will work perfectly for internet connection, but not for SFP USB (RSA720 or RD160). You need 10gb. In this case you will have to take the Finisar FTLX1475D3BTL

For User Interface convenience, the following was copied from Rose 130 for Roon display

If you want to watch the video or music playing on RS130 on your monitor or TV, just connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI port on the rear of RS130 and the HDMI port on your monitor or TV.
