Yes, it is. This screenshot is from my ‘Recently Played’ section on Roon’s Overview screen.
The first album from the left shows ‘MQA’ as only available format, but plays back as 16/44.1. The second doesn’t have any format indication at all. And the last two again show ‘MQA’ as only available format, and this time really 16/44.1 format is unavailable and they play back as MQA…
Even a new “MQA only” album streams in 16/44.1 when you stream. Unless you added it to library when i Masters mode, because then it plays the MQA Masters version. And either way, it will only show you one version - the MQA one.
So the Red Books are there, you can’t just see them much more as an alternative version. One big loss for user convenience and functionality.
Example of a new “MQA only” release: Iron Maiden - Nights of the Dead, Legacy of the Beast: Live in Mexico City
I would go over the list in the app itself. I just went the opposite direction (having been gifted a too good to pass up lifetime sub to Tidal despite my slight preference for Q sound quality) and many of the missing according to Soundiiz were just title or format mismatches. The handful of truly missing titles I wanted I just ended up buying.
Hmm, well it looks like the album transfer from Tidal to Qobuz hasn’t gone quite to plan.
In the Qobuz web player, everything looks OK. All the albums seem to have been added although it’s difficult to be totally sure as it doesn’t provide a count.
However, in Roon only 189 of 1243 albums have made it into the library. The missing albums sit resolutely in the Qobuz section of Roon and haven’t moved up to my library.
I have restarted Roon, removed and re-linked my Qobuz account but it hasn’t made any difference.
Soundiz won’t transfer ROON playlists, very sadly. If you have used Roon’s capability to make Playlists and your playlist entries point to Tidal songs, they will not be replaced by Qobuz entries. Your Roon playlists will no longer work. So if you are a playlist user its best not to use Roon for playlists if you think you might move services.
