Banned albums still appearing during shuffle in Roon 2.57 (ref#135YL2)[Ticket in]

[Stewart_Wood]

Hi! What’s not quite right with Roon?

· None of the above quite fits

None of the above quite fits

· None of these quite match

Tell us what's going on

· When shuffling my local library tracks from albums I've banned still appear.
I'm running roon server 2.57 build 1598 but the issue described has always been a problem.

Tell us about your home network

· I don't believe this issue is network related, but my router is a TP-Link Archer AX53

Banning only means that it won’t be autoplayed by Roon Radio or on the higher level (e.g., if you play an album, a banned track within it won’t play)

However, you still can play banned items explicitly (which is a good thing).

Therefore, if you shuffle tracks, banned tracks will be included.

Possible solutions:

• If you don’t want to access banned tracks, ever, try to hide them in addition to banning them. (This requires that they are in your Roon library, which is not the case for banning)
• Alternatively, create a Focus that excludes banned tracks, prior to shuffling them

Hey @Stewart_Wood

Thanks for performing that test, we have added this info to the investigation ticket. The ticket has been submitted for developer review, meaning that this may take some time to be reviewed.

There aren’t any additional details needed at this time, so we will go ahead and close the thread for the time being, and if any other questions arise after the developers have reviewed the case, we will re-open the thread and reach out once more.

Thanks again for your report, and thank you in advance for your patience as the ticket progresses through the development queue for review.
