Build 1392+: Various Artists Compilations Intermittently Splitting into Duplicate Albums (by track) in Roon, ARC [Roon Investigating]

For the first time in many months I have a trouble free library :slight_smile:

Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Another symptom of this issue when I choose view tracks from my library.

There are actually 3 versions of the locomotion in my library rather than 12.

Any chance of a Christmas present of this bug being sorted?

It didn’t.

It’s better than it was, i.e. not as many messed up albums, but I still have three with missing tracks.

Both case one and two

@connor @benjamin is this in today’s release notes alluding to the issues in this thread?

Certainly a quick scan shows up much less but not a full absence of issues.


Should I just manually edit the outstanding albums affected and hope they stay connected?

Hi @Sloop_John_B,

Development would like to take a closer look at this database, if possible. At your convenience, can you please navigate to your to your Roon Database Location, zip up the RoonServer folder entirely, and upload here? Database Uploader.

We’ve identified the issue in logs but would like to reproduce in situ to determine why your database remains vulnerable despite the fix. Thank you for your patience.

I have just uploaded the zipped database Sloop John B- Roonserver.zip

Thanks

@connor - Still happening:

One pattern, it appears to only happen after playing imported playlists locally (not on ARC).

@connor I’m still seeing instances of Case One (on Build 1489 Early Access). I should only have one of the Codeine copies; when I selected one, they all got selected. (This is from My Albums):

Edit: Note that it says “7 selected” in the selection menu in the above screenshot, top left, but only 3 are actually selected (and the three are in reality only one album). I hadn’t noticed this when I wrote the first version of the post. Now I did, and tried again:

  • After selecting one for the Codeine copies, it first shows “3 selected”
  • From then on, it kept counting up. In the first following screenshot it was at 77 selected, while I made the second screenshot it increased to 91, and as I write this and post the 3rd screenshot it’s now at “95 selected”.
  • However, this is the entirety of what I see:

It seems to have stopped the count now, still at 95 and steady

Edit 2: Nope, 2 minutes later it is at “197 selected” and counting.

  • If I delete the “White” filter it goes back to “3 selected”, i.e., the incorrect 3 copies of Codeine.
  • Ha! If I enter the “White” filter again, it starts counting up again

Edit 3: After the above, I can’t remove the selection. I tried by clicking the X button, top right, but it went to “2 selected”, and this does not go away:

Try the menu:

No change:

Restarting the Roon app made the spurious selection go away, but the number count is still wrong (as it was in the above screenshots, too)

What’s happening?

· I'm having trouble with Roon ARC

What best describes your issue with ARC

· Other

How can we help?

· None of the above

Other options

· I don't like how the product works

Describe the issue

A few months ago there was a problem with double albums in the library. It seemed a solved issue but now it's back.

Describe your network setup

Fritzbox - Asus Zen Wifi xt12 - all wired - Google pixel 9 pro xl endpoint where the double albums are visible

Sounds like this, for which a fix was promised but apparently hasn’t arrived yet.

Hi everyone,

Thank you for your ongoing patience - the work we have prepared to address this phenomenon has not yet merged into a publically released build and remains with our QA team. We’ll post here when we have a more fruitful update, but we can assure you we’re making progress behind the scenes.

I have this problem since a few days, combined with the “qobuz entries not showing in Roon library”.

In short: my library is so screwed up that since yesterday, I am not able to listen to music in any reasonable or even realistic way. Thanks Roon!
