Roon Software Discussion

Apologies if this topic has been addressed before.

With a combination of local music files and albums added to my library from Tidal, my album count is now over 500.

In trying to find a particular artist I either have to scroll down - which can be rather tedious if it’s near the bottom of the list, or search for the artist and then go through the discography (which can also be quite large for some artists).

It would be nice if Roon offered a way to jump to a particular letter in the list, rather than the other methods mentioned.

I use Roon on my iPad (Roon Server is on a dedicated NUC), so I don’t know if there are better options with a Windows or macOS Roon client.

You can jump to the letter. On a desktop, use the relevant letter key. On tablets and phones, grab the scroll bar and the year / letter is displayed for fast scrolling depending on the sort order.

Also, for your library, use the filter (lower spyglass icon) to filter e.g., gen.

My description a few years back raised a giggle

You grab the sausage on the RHS scroll bar

But I would prefer the Filter as @mjw suggests , pick a series of letters (3 but 4 s better) that’s distinct and you can get to an album quickly .

It works for Artists too, just pick intelligently eg use “Bow” not “Dav” to get David Bowie there are lots of Davids

That reminds me time to cook breakfast Full English of course :rofl:
