Having the same issues here over the last couple of years, running a Nucleus Plus with some modifications to avoid those problems. The last couple of weeks it became that extreme that I played music by TIDAL or Qobuz Connect over my Wadax Audio Player. First of all a perfect quality, even higher as playing the same files with Roon but instantly playing No delays or ignorante behavior. Now the strange thing happend yesterday morning. Roon, with the same libery, setup etc. was playing without any delay all morning. Whatever I tried, all worked fine
Unfortunately today Roon was back to basic and long delays started again.
I am experiencing the same issue. Itās the worst it has been in a long time. Restarting Roon Server fixes the issue temporarily.
Can you comment on the database corruption issue? Why does it occur, and is there not a way for Roon to self-correct?
As Iāve said elsewhere, this seems pretty significant, esp. given the number of people experiencing similar issues, and experiencing the same drastic improvement with a āfreshā database (either new or restored from back-up).
From December, 2023, until the last 2-4 weeks, my ROON ROCK NUC has been fast and rock solid (no pun)!
Now, Iām having problems similar to all of those mentioned above. I too re-booted Roon and all was back to normal for a time, but then, the delays returned etc..
Iām running the latest version of Roon ROCK on the following hardware:
Intel NUC 11 NUC11PAHi7; SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD 500GB; Kingston FURY 32GB; Seagate 24TB external recently acquired last December.
Itās taking Roon 20-30 seconds to load. Itās also taking significantly longer to search and to display the results when an album is selected. I do have a large library with >200K Flac tracks. However, the library hasnāt grown and previously Roonās loading and other functions were timely with none of the current problems.
Not sure ācreating a new databaseā in a valid response from Roon, considering it seems many peoples were working and now suddenly not (i.e its something in Roon, not something that the user is doing) - I have spend a lot of time tagging my music - Cāmon Roon tell us what is going on and release a fix!!!
I agree. Asking users to go through ācreating a new databaseā might be acceptable to help with diagnostics, but it is not acceptable as a suggested solution.
I wonāt say my database I complex like probably some others. But Iāve made some playlists, tagged some music and some stuff like that. Starting all over is no fun.
Same issues here.. i5, 16gb, ram, ssd.. should be fine, but 30-60 sec load times. Have seen the possible restore database fix.. but canāt be bothered. Switching to just Tidal and hope for a fix in the future.
Update: I reset my database, and started fresh. For a while, Roon was great again. But the slowness soon returned. I rebooted my NUC and performance was fine again - but after only a week, that shouldnāt be necessary.
So I opened yet another trouble ticket, and the response: āIf rebooting your Core temporarily fixes the problem, it sounds like a known issue weāre actively trying to fix. There is nothing else for you to do for now, except do a daily reboot of your server.ā
Unbelievable. Iāve reset my database and now I must reboot my Core every day? Roon, you can see this is a common (and MAJOR) problem - I honestly hope a fix is coming and youāll be transparent about the problem.
No delays or ignorante behavior. Now the strange thing happend yesterday morning. Roon, with the same libery, setup etc. was playing without any delay all morning. Whatever I tried, all worked fine
