Hey All, I am in the middle of building out a proper stereo in a room of my home and feel pretty lucky. In speccing out the system I discovered Roon and am really intrigued. I fell out of music for many years after streaming became the norm and wound up in podcast land. I’m realizing what I’ve been…

You opened one support request back in 2022 and the support team responded. You did not close the loop with them, so the thread was eventually closed.

[image] Mr.Flibble: I’d say only finicky if you don’t follow their network best practices. I would strongly disagree with this. It’s finicky if any number of factors apply to your network or library, whether they are best practices or not. Unless you consider things like “don’t have a colle…

Agreed. Unidentified albums, bootlegs, large boxsets are Roon’s Achilles heel. So, adding these to Roon’s best practices to avoid is recommended. :wink:

Weird post to this thread… anyway….by far the best music experience I have ever had. Was Apple Music before Roon. Will never go back.

[image] Incorrect "Added" date for Qobuz albums (ref#QLDXI2) [Ticket In, Qobuz is on it] Many Qobuz albums in Roon are listed as added on February 23, 2026, even though they were actually added much earlier. Is this related to the Cloudflare outage? And will this be resolved? This is under inv…

My experience is similar. Most of the time Roon is very reliable, with occasional minor issues resolved with reboots. I have hardwired most of my network, reboot my ROCK server weekly, and all my Pi endpoints are rebooted overnight (the excellent Ropieee software automates this process). My only ad…

I agree. I have three copies of my music collection. One on my Roon Server. One on my daily NUC and a third one which is not connected. But gets updated every once in awhile. Just looking for an affordable cloud backup where to store 2+ tb of music. As I have a lot of music which is not available o…

I can recommend Backblaze. Effectively it provides unlimited cloud backup with one year of version history for all the drives attached to one computer, with (so far) no limit on storage size. I installed it on a Mac Mini which also acts as my video server and main Roon music backup - currently back…

I’ve been using Backblaze. It took an age to upload my 2TB worth of music files but once done it updates any changes straight away. There’s no limit to the amount of storage you can use, and uploaded files will stay in the cloud for a year if you delete any locally. Ah, I see @Gimlet beat me to it! …

I agree about BU , for any internal drive I have 2 x USB external drives as BU, I thought about cloud but transferring 5Tb to the cloud and back (if disaster struck) seemed too daunting and time consuming. I use SyncBack Pro which mirrors and only changed files so once a BU is done every incrementa…
