Metallica …And Justice For all. When the folder that contains the files has the leading … It will not show up in Roon. Removed the leading … and it shows up fine. Weird.
This is neither a glitch nor a bug. It’s documented here:
including:
In Addition, Roon supports user-configurable Ignore Patterns for folder names. These can be changed by selecting the Edit option in Settings → Storage → three dots menu for a watched folder. These patterns are not case sensitive, but do use the directory separator specific to your operating system (
/
on Mac/Linux,\
on Windows). By default, every watched folder is created with patterns to ignore the following:
- any folder named “tmp”
- any folder named “temp”
- any folder with a name starting with a period, for example “/…and Justice For All/ or /.temp/”
- any folder with a name ending with .pmbmf
Anything leading with period is considered a hidden system/config files on some file systems, so is why Roon is likely set up to ignore them.
Thank you!
