Roon Software Discussion

Hi @John_Gallup:

  1. What do you see when you select the “Credits” tab in the “Kind of Blue” album view? I see a long and bewildering list of credits for this album.
  2. Whether or not you see the album’s original catalog number may depend on the version you have in your library. For example, I have the 24/192 hi-res release of “Kind of Blue” (from HD Tracks, as I recall) and it does not show the Columbia catalog number for the CD, as expected, I think, because it is not the same release of the album. In other cases, my Miles Davis CD rips do show the Columbia catalog number (for example, Miles Davis and John Coltrane Complete Columbia Recordings:1955-1961).
  3. Yes, you are right, it would be great if album liner notes could be provided with every album in Roon. But Roon can only display the metadata provided by the labels/distributors. See this thread for more: Complete Album Art - Sleeve Notes - Booklets
