Before installing Roon rock on a dedicated Intel nuc I had roon server installed on my windows computor. My music is installed on 6 external drives on the same computor and I had no problems importing the music. Now Rock doesnt find the folders! I have tried the different tips I have found here but it does not help! Can anyone help me?
There are a couple of ways to store music and access it Roon. You can either have an internal drive, a USB connected drive, or a network share. It looks like before you were using the external USB drives connected to the Windows machine.
If you are leaving the drives connected to the Windows machine you’ll have to access the media over the network. To do this, you’ll want to take a look at these articles:
Thank you Dylan! I tried both articles but nothing works! What do you mean by connecting the drives via USB? They are WDC ata discs mounted in the Windows computor!
The Roon Core running on your ROCK/NUC needs to know the username (Användarnamm) and password (Lösenord) for the Windows network share that you have defined (\\server\I). You haven’t filled in these fields, so Windows won’t let Roon connect to this share.
I added a password and now it works?!? This was not nessecary with roonserver on the windows computor! I now want to restore from a backup done on the computor! I suppose I will then run into a problem with the adress! How do I handle that?
I managed to restore the backup and change the filenames so now all music is found!
But I lost audio, no audio units are found?!? What happened? How do I restore?
Hello Dylan!
I srarted a new thread on this problem, Rock has last all audio devices, and there I wrote that the NUC rebooted on its own and then the audio devices were back! So everything is fine now and it is really rocking! Thanks for all support!
