Hello
I imported my library with about 10,000 songs into Roon.
I am missing some meta tags that seem not to be considered by Roon ( but are present via Upnp):
Tag “Female Voice”
Tag “Audiophile”
Individual rating of Songs from 0 to 5 *
F.i.
Is there a place where I can tell Roon to read those and make them usable by its Focus/Filter?
I did so in SETTINGS > LIBRARY > IMPORT SETTINGS (before asking here and without success)
But this does it only for GENRE settings, not extended meta tags in general, isn‘t it?
No need not reset my Library after change of this setting either as Roon updates itself?
As it’s already said, Roon supports only album ratings at the moment. By having individual track ratings in the supported rating tag, it becomes rather unpredictable which rating might end up as album rating.
No, unsupported tags are just unsupported. Maybe you can add supported tags to your files that cover/contain the same information/meaning (for “Female Voice” see above). For “Audiophile” maybe something like “PRESONNEL = Audiophile - Audio Enhancement” which would then allow you to use focus on production for Audiophile.
File tags supported by Roon are listed in the individual KB-articles linked in this and previous posts.
Roon should start to apply the changed settings after you hit the save button in the import settings window.
@BlackJack - Thanks!
The things that I hoped Roon would manage better than the average Upnp servers is wiped away.
Four instance “female voice” is an individual tag that I created and used on JRiver and hoped I could import that as well.
I know that I could re-create this tag manually in Roon but the amount of work turns me off.
The lack of track ratings is a real bummer and probably ruined a lifetime subscription by me.
The usefulness of a music server strongly depends on the meta data it supports and the means of individualisation it offers.
