Merging two Roon libraries

Support

Is it possible to merge two separate Roon libraries into one? This would include playlists, and favorites.

Thanks in advance,
Vince

how Roon handles playlists is “restricted”, you can expert them as csv-file but the order of the tracks is mixed and you cannot re-import csv-files again … :disappointed_relieved:

once in the pasttime I also had to merge two libraries and I wanted to get rid of redundancies, so what I did:

  • import lib 1 to Roon
  • export lib 1 to the file system
  • import lib 2 to Roon
  • export lib 2 to the file systen
  • then I ran a file compare utility across both exports; as the naming convention is identical for both exports (artist / album / track), I could easily identify the redundant albums and therefore merging the libraries.

for comparing files on windows I am using for many years “file compare” from scooter software with great success

Thanks. What you outlined is pretty much what I worked out in my head. Now that I know it’s possible, I will poke at it next weekend.

Thanks!
