Finding library albums with missin tracks

Hi guys I’m trying to find a smart way if there is one that Roon can highlight albums that have missing tracks..

Essentially I’m looking for a way where it filters our albums that have maybe the last two tracks missing or tracks missing in between the numbers of tracks chronologically. I then will obviously redownload the album from my cd. I suspect I have a few.

Is there any way to do this a query feature or something possible?

Thanks.

This?

Cud be Joel. Brilliant if it works. I’ll check. Cheers

Joel ironically I have an issue .. sorry side issue. I searched initially for duplicate albums and get a very weird result and having searched twice can’t seem to delete this album. Can we speak seperately about this possibly? Just can’t seem to replicate it

Hi Adam. I’m not a Support person, nor is that my particular area. Restarting your Roon Server (and waiting for it to settle down) and re-trying your delete action might be something to do. But if that doesn’t work, I do suggest creating a formal ticket in the Support forum.

It is a very clever idea I had wondered about from time to time. Same issue here, check the tracks of ripped cd’s.

Thank you, I will try it

Sorry Joel my mistake. So that doesn’t actually work your suggestion because I gained up getting 960 albums. What I’m looking for is the ability for roon to scour my library and find albums that have maybe a track missing or two tracks missing - example 1 2 3 4 7 8 10. I guess without roon knowing how many tracks there should be this is probably quite difficult but I don’t know if it can be done or not? Thanks

I tried @Joel’s suggestion and it found 34 out of 3426 albums with non-contiguous tracks. I’ve inspected a random dozen of those albums, and yes, they all contained non-contiguous track numbering, i.e. missing numbers in the track lists.

Now, whether this is misnumbering in the metadata or genuinely missing tracks is a separate question and requires further investigation on my part…

The albums in question are both ripped/downloaded albums and albums streamed from Qobuz

Geoff maybe Im doing this wrong. I got 100s. And all ok. Can you send me the screen shot. Does seem a bit weird. Appreciate it


Sure - here’s what I get:

A couple of things to note:

  • It’s now 32 albums, because I discovered two albums weren’t tagged properly
  • I discount albums with the BBC Proms or the Podcast tags, because I know that they have, by nature, missing tracks/episodes.

In your screenshot, did you actually make the “Contiguous tracks” criterion into its negative by clicking/touching it in the Focus list? It should show as a red button with the negative sign as shown in my screenshot…

And here’s a shot of the track listing of the George Michael album showing the non-contiguous track numbering…

Arrrr NO ! I did not. Great. Shall try now Geoff
