Hiccups while playing music

Hi @Ulrik_Deriemaecker,

Sorry to hear you’re still having issues!

You are correct in that your Roon Server has other processes happening outside of audio playback. A few include audio analysis, metadata collection, and maintaining stable network connectivity.

I see that you’re running ~350k tracks on your current Roon Server. What happens if you disable your local library and only run Roon with your streaming service? Make a fresh backup before performing any local library editing.

Refreshing your Roon database may help as well - I’ll share the steps below:

  • Create a Backup of your current database
  • Exit out of Roon
  • Navigate to your Roon Database Location
  • Find the folder that says “RoonServer”
  • Rename the “RoonServer” folder to “RoonServer_old”
  • Reinstall the Roon App from our Downloads Page to generate a new Roon folder
  • Verify if the issue persists on a fresh database before restoring the backup
