@R_102 what is going on here?
Roon Version 1.8 (build 882) stable
How do we get this working again? Extension is gone.
Never mind. I had to change the port setting in the ATV4K setup to match that shown in Roon - Settings - Display and all is good now. Also had to enable the Extension in Roon - Extensions.

Many of the images are not fitting my 65 inch TV screen. The pictures are too large. Is there a way to fix that?
85 inch TV will fix it.

Hi @Henri How have you set the extension up to connect to the Roon Core, auto discovery or manually entered the IP address?
If you’ve manually entered the IP address you may need to check for a change of port number
Are those image’s artist images or album covers?
There’s a know issue with artist images failing to appear:
In TV:Remote app, if no artist images are available the display will cycle through an oversized and sized to fit album cover.
I think it’s probably some of both.
If you spot an oversized artist image pass on the track name, I’ll try and figure out what’s going on.

I’ll watch. It could just be album covers. Thanks.
That is exactly what I did. But it didn’t change anything.
It is only a problem if you add new artists that have not been in your music library before.
If you want to reproduce the problem, here is how it goes;
you add a completely new artist that was not present in your music library before, then add an artist picture for the new artist you just added.
Now you wil notice that when you play an album of that new artist, the artist picture is not shown on screen using your Apple TV extension.
Your extension will show a close up up the album cover, even though you have added the artist picture and it should be available. However, it is not
The problem is very tricky, because any artist that was present before these recent 2 builds will act normal with your extension, that is, their artist pictures will be visible on the screen while playing music.
Therefore some people will think they do not have the problem. It is only after you have added a new artist, you did not have before in your library that you will notice the problem.
Anyway, I suspect this is out of your hands and must be solved by the Roon staff. The problem is exactly the same for your extension and the screen view of the Chrome Cast.
@ivan I am tagging you, so you can reproduce the problem.
Just got a new Apple TV 4K. I installed TV:Remote and set it up as before via IP entry and port in App Settings. Verified address and port via Roon>Settings>Displays.
Apple TV is connected via Ethernet to the local network (verified working via other local services).
I just can’t get this one figured out. Automatic search has never found room on my home network from Apple TV - this one or the old one - but on the old one manual setup did work.
Any advice?
Can’t you just type in the Roon server IP address ?
Yes, as noted above I do this but it does not find the Core. Phones do, other sources and playback devices do. The TV Remote app does not work with the verified IP and port
Try installing the “Fing” app on your mobile phone and run a scan to see if you can see the apple TV on the same network as your Roon Core.
Assuming it is, is ethernet cable in the apple TV connected to the same network switch as the Roon core?
Cheers

Does the Apple TV appear as an audio device in Roon?
If using Ethernet is is possible to try the ATV and Core while connected to the same router/switch.
Is the behaviour the same if connected over WiFi?
For reference, the TV:Remote app listens for connection via UDP Multicast, address: 239.255.90.90:9003
Fantastic app, thanks a lot for developing this! Love it how there are all these bits & pieces in the Roon ecosystem that make the music listening experience all the better.

Yes, this is one of the best new features of Roon! I only wish the API gave our dear developer more options and flexibiilty!
