Your music, the way it deserves to look on the big screen.

Klangbild connects directly to your Roon Core. No extra server, no account, nothing to configure.

Now Playing

Large cover art on a background that follows the album, with progress, shuffle, repeat, Roon Radio and volume.

Library & playlists

Browse everything in Roon. Playlist folders get cover mosaics, long playlists can be sorted.

Live Radio & search

Your stations with their logos, your tags, and search across all of Roon.

Zones

Switch zones, set the volume per output and move playback to another room.

Profiles

Switch Roon profiles right from the top bar. Library and playlists follow along.

Made yours

Light or dark, dimming, accent color, text and cover size. Pin any Roon folder to the top bar.


On screen
