Describe the issue

I can't start Roon Radio from an artist page in ARC. Clicking the 3 dots in the top right of the screen in any artist page, then clicking the "Start Radio" option, it only plays tracks of the same artist, as if I selected the "Play now" option.

Describe your network setup

My Roon server is my HP laptop connected to my modem via Wi-Fi. My phone has mobile data on to use ARC when outside the house.

Hi @Riccardo_Sicheri,

In ARC settings, do you have “Limit Roon Radio to library” toggled on or off?

[Riccardo_Sicheri]

Hi,
I have it off

Hi @Riccardo_Sicheri,

Thank you. We’ll need an example of a “seed” artist page in Roon Radio that is causing this behavior. If you can verify this doesn’t occur with the same artist when using Roon Remote, that will also greatly expedite our investigation.

Hi,

I just started Roon Radio in ARC from the artist page of U2, and as all the other artists it plays only U2 songs. I then started Roon Radio from U2 artist page in my Roon Remote on my android phone (Samsung Galaxy A54) and it plays the Radio as intended with other artists songs

Thank you!

Will you notify me here when it gets resolved? Even after this thread closes?

Thanks again.

Hi @Riccardo_Sicheri,

Yes exactly - we’ll be back with a status update when QA reproduces the behavior.

Hi!

EarlyAccess: Roon 2.0 Build 1448 and ARC Build 288 is Live!

Love it or Ban it! Since the beginning, Roon users have used Favorites and Bans to keep track of the music they love, and the music they absolutely do not want to hear. Roon develops a profile of your taste that’s continually refined – the more you listen, the better Roon understands your musical DNA. But every once in a while Roon Radio plays something you never want to hear again. Or maybe Roon recommends an artist you’ve already made up your mind about. For years, people have asked why the…

Awesome, thank you so much!
