RE: Is aptx hd codec supported by Windows 10 ...

I don't understand why you are streaming Qobuz via Roku into a Win 10 computer.

All you need do is go to the Qobuz website and look at " Our Players" and download the Windows 64 bit player to your computer. It is free , you don't need a subscription to install the player. This will give you the full Qobuz experience. Then you just connect a USB cable to your DAC ( which supports <24/192). No need to spend anything ( assuming that you already have the cable).

The Qobuz player deivers bit perfect data to the computer.The reason you are seeing everything downsampled to 16/48 is probably because the bitperfect stream is being routed by Windows through its sound engine which will up or down sample whatever it receives to the rate specified in the sound engine (or mixer).

With the Qobuz player ( not the web browser version) you will find an option to set up a WASAPI or Asio session which will send a bitperfect stream to your DAC . When you have downloaded the player and have your DAC connected you will find an icon in the player bar to the right with "Speakers/headphones ". Click on it and you should see a number of replay options including ( I hope) Topping D 30 or E 30 Wasapi and/or Asio. Just select one of those and hey presto bit perfect <24/192 output to your DAC.
