I am using this extension and I noticed the cover changes everytime the song changed, but not the infos about the song. They change only every two songs.
Nce! What would it cost?
It’s a bug, and I haven’t figured out how to fix it yet!
https://github.com/epochaudio/RoonCoverArt_Android/releases/download/v2.4.1/CoverArt-2.4.1-debug.apk
- 2.4.1 (Latest)
- Fixed a bug where touching the cover art could tear down the Roon connection: the cover-drag preview warmup sent a queue-subscribe on the main thread (
NetworkOnMainThreadException), which the outbound writer misread as a socket failure and closed the connection — surfacing as reconnect churn and unreliable swipe gestures - Moved main-thread MOO sends off the UI thread; hardened the outbound writer to only disconnect on a real
IOException
- Fixed a bug where touching the cover art could tear down the Roon connection: the cover-drag preview warmup sent a queue-subscribe on the main thread (
- 2.4.0
- Added a connection supervisor for unattended 24/7 operation: application-level heartbeat detects silent/half-dead WebSocket sessions within ~35s (independent of TCP keepalive) and drives a perpetual exponential-backoff reconnect that never gives up
- Session-generation isolation prevents a dying old connection’s late callbacks from disrupting a fresh one; escalates to SOOD re-discovery after repeated failures so a Roon Core that changed IP is found again
- Enabled by default; can be toggled off at runtime via
runtime_config.feature_flags.connection_supervisor. Legacy connection path retained as a rollback fallback - Field-verified: automatic recovery ~29s after a real disconnect, zero false heartbeat kills over long idle (Roon replies to WS ping/pong)
- Folds in the previously unreleased 2.3.8 cover-art sync fixes (see below)
- Added 19 JVM tests for heartbeat liveness and reconnect backoff/escalation/stale-callback handling
- 2.3.8
- Fixed cover-art desync in now-playing binding and gesture previews so the visible cover always matches the current track
- Fixed gesture cover-art previews: eliminated preview freeze, wrong-cover flashes, and a resubscribe storm during rapid skips

Hi Wen, thanks for tagging me!
It’s a beautiful app!
Our two apps differ a lot but both have Roon and artworkd in common, nice work my friend! 
Thanks for the update Wen. Running great here on my cheap Walmart tablet.
Wow, nice draft, that’s exactly what I’m looking for. Instant buy if it has a black frame and a matte IPS FHD display. From an aesthetic standpoint the power connection should be hidden on the back of the display - visible cables are evil. 
I’m getting a 404 on the GitHub link.
- 2.5.4 (Latest)
- Fixed inbound message classification so only seek-only progress payloads are discarded; natural-track payloads that also carry authoritative Zone, now-playing, or state changes stay on the ordered protocol path
- Added mixed seek/track regression coverage; all 307 Debug and 307 Release JVM tests pass with 0 lint errors/5 existing warnings and a successful Debug APK build
- Installed the repaired APK as an in-place update on LX04 (
192.168.0.148): without a manual transport command, playback advanced fromVincenttoImagine (Imagine)with matching Eva Cassidy artwork, title, artist, album, and persisted image key; the app stayed foreground with its Roon Core socket established and an empty crash buffer
- 2.5.3
- Consolidated early multi-AI legacy paths into explicit single owners for connection, subscriptions, transitions, Settings/Zone persistence, cache/configuration, and layout policy
- Hardened Core discovery, WebSocket framing, session isolation, bounded protocol/image work, Queue restoration, and stale-response rejection
- Removed the final production-zero-call compatibility/debug surfaces while preserving the live Settings, palette, layout, dispatch, and transition handoff paths
- Verified 305 Debug and 305 Release JVM tests, 0 lint errors, and the same final Debug APK on LX04 and YF_024E; YF_024E is startup/connection-only because it does not support gestures
- 2.5.2
- Fixed the natural-track transition race that could leave new cover art paired with old metadata
- Bound connection callbacks, inbound/outbound work, and Queue subscriptions to explicit sessions so stale work cannot cross reconnects
- Replaced recursive WebSocket frame parsing with an iterative, bounded reader and strengthened subscription restoration
2.54 is running smoothly here. Great work!
I’d still like to see a nice simple clock screen when nothing’s playing. But I’m really grateful for your work on this!!
