When running Roon Core on my MacBook Pro, I was often clicking though to the file/folders that hold my music to deal with maintenance and organisational matters. Now that I have my Roon Core running on the Sonic Transporter, it seems that I cannot click through like this. That is a damn shame, I must say. Is there a way to use a browser to drive roon through the roon server, rather than through a remote, and thus be able to click through as I used to be able to do when the core was on my mac?
Does anyone know whether this will be different in the upcoming 1.3 release? @support@agillis
You can copy files to your sonicTransporter over the network.
Go to the network folder on your computer and look for the sonicTransporter. put your files in files -> music -> FLAC
So I should clarify. Most of my folders are on a synology NAS, not on the transporter. When the Roon core was on my MacbookPro, I used to be able to go to track info, and click on the link, and my Mac would open the folder where the track file was in finder. Then I could do the work I wanted to do in the folder, without having to look it up separately.
Now, if I need to work on a folder, I have to look at the track info to see where the track is. Then I have to go to Finder on my mac and then click my way through a host of directory layers to get to the folder to do the work. It is a real pain!
Thanks. Its not a matter of knowing where the music is. It is a matter of convenience. It was very convenient to previously be able to click ONE link INSIDE Roon and have the relevant music sub-folder open from the NAS, ready for work. It is not so convenient to have to add in a whole series of clicks and cross references to get the same outcome now that my Mac has become a remote, not the core host.
I wonder if the 1.3 release will change all of this.
