I find I have to reboot every 2 days or so. Roon otherwise will take 30 seconds between tracks and seems to pause a lot with Tidal and Qobuz tracks. Reboot fixes it for 24-48 hours then it’s needed again. Anyone else have this type of issue?
I reboot my windows core probably once every 2 or 3 months, if that. But, not because of Roon or Windows. I have other software running on it as well.
I do start/stop the Server as needed, but, that is due to RoonServer not releasing the ASIO driver for other software to use; not due to any hangup using Roon.
I restart my core on the Qnap if my RAM gets saturated, I need more RAM really 4GB is not enough but it’s no big deal. I’ll get some when this virus is over.
Reboot: Depends on OS (updates)
Restart: Usually done trough Roon updates
So reboots are usually more frequent (± monthly) than restarts.
Disclaimer: I’m a non-streamer. My Roon DB is able to fit into the machines RAM and still leaving enough space for the rest of the system to breath. The big streaming catalogs might impact others in this regard (big Roon DB and searches that return 10+k albums/100+ k tracks for example)?.
I’m running Roon with Ubuntu 19.10 on a headless Intel NUC [NUC7PJYH].
I only reboot for Ubuntu updates that require a restart… so every 3 to 6 months. I’m currently at 65 days uptime [since we had a full house, multiple hour, power loss].
Using ROCK on an Intel NUC, I reboot it twice a month, mainly when I select some new albums directly from Qobuz app and I want Roon to immediately sync.
@James_I what are you using for your core machine - full specs please - this is not normal. I have run roon on many platforms and seldom reboot. These days I run Rock on NUC or other MOCK setup and only ever reboot for moving things or if I have a power trip.
I have had to re-boot my NUC twice, but about every ten days, I have to power off the Aries Auralic G2 (hard boot). Roon does not see it at those times unless I do so.
