This is not good. First startup after installation, says updating database then crashed out. Restart Roon, loaded up first page stay on for about a minute, crashed again.
This is a bad experience for me as a Mac user.
I’m running the core on a mac mini and had no problems. This is not much help I know, but suggests it might have had to do with your particular setup, but not something intrinsic to build 29.
You could be right. I may just restore my mac to original factory setting. And reinstall everything from start. Maybe I will just install Roon on it and make it a dedicated Roon core player.
Given your unfortunate crash ridden history with Roon, starting out on a freshly installed Mac may not be such a bad idea. While Roon has always behave quite well on my Macs, the last two builds have been 100% stable.
Out of interest: what Mac/config/OS are you running Roon on?
Mac Mini 2014, i5 2.6GHz, 8GB RAM, Yosemite 10.10.3
I have exactly the same issue. Roon crashes a couple minutes after startup 2 times out of 3.
