Introducing the New Features of ROSE OS Ver.5.9

RoseTube Recommendation System

HiFi Rose have added an all-new music recommendation feature based on your listening data. This feature will analyse your preferred genres and listening habits to provide tailor-made content including curated playlists specially selected by HiFi Rose.

Qobuz Connect

Qobuz is many audiophiles first choice when it comes to music streaming services due to often offering the highest resolution music streaming on the market. With the long-awaited Qobuz Connect being announced last month at the High End Munich event, HiFi Rose have instantly added this new feature onto their latest ROSE OS.

Qobuz Connect allows you to stream music from the Qobuz app on your smartphone, tablet or computer and directly stream and control it on your ROSE device without the need for any third-party apps. Similar to Spotify Connect, Qobuz Connect allows easy device selection directly from within the app.

Key Features of Qobuz Connect: 

• Full control through a single Qobuz app: Play music instantly without switching devices or apps
• Seamless device transitions: Continue listening smoothly even when changing devices or locations
• Support for FLAC lossless and up to 24-bit / 192kHz high-resolution audio

DLNA (Media Server) Playback Feature Added

DLNA allows you to seamlessly share files over your home network. The new Rose OS has enabled playback of files shared through DLNA.
