Multi part affecting credits

[Niccolo_Terzi (Niccolò Terzi)]

I have met now this problem in this (roon identified) album:

tracks

as you see, track 2 has 4 performances.
i tried disabling the multipart group for the album, because of tracks 4-5 where the the division of the title tracks (Dove… Quando… pt 1 & pt 2) in an invented “Dove” WORK and “Quando” Part is clearly an error.

Anwyay, what happens after changing this setting?

as you see… now track 2 has only 1 performance. moreover, the composition has disappeared.

so, i don’t see why this should happen.

in any case, here i ask again to the @staff & @support an explanation for the problem of tracks with no composition.
this is IMO the biggest BUG in roon… something that spoil in a way the so called “magic of roon”, which is to cross links various albums with respect to performers compositions and composers.

it’s something that i have pointed out now several times, but have received no answer so far.

Composers links problems [no more only Greek]

in my library i have quite a lot of greek music albums. in most of them, i’ve used the latin translitteration. anyway, in roon metadata i’ve got a lot of links to composers in greek alphabet like this: [image] i’ve noticed that the links don’t work: if i click on the link, nothing happens. in the composer page the names are present, though. so i think it’s a bug, because the same happens with all of these greek links…

Tracks with NO composition

I have already asked for @support about this problem, and i know that it has already (in a way) been asked. but i have found no answer in the forum, so … i try to ask again. it happens (actually, in great part of my library) that some albums have tracks that are not associated to any composition. example (identified album): [image] [image] as you see, track 8 has no “go to composition” button. it’s not the only one of the album, some have composition, some do not. and if you go to the comp…

no answer at all.

Hey @Niccolo_Terzi,

Currently this is the expected behavior here. When the Multi-Part compositions are disabled this also affects how these compositions are identified. Since this appears to be “working as designed” I would recommend also posting your suggestion in the 'feature request" section of the site.

Our product team and developers keep a close eye on that category, so that’s definitely the best place to propose a change like this and get feedback from the Community.

As for the tracks not displaying properly, the best option here is using WORK/PART tags and leaving multi-part compositions enabled.

Thanks,
Dylan

@Niccolo_Terzi, you see how a simple turn of a phrase can change your whole outlook on a phenomenon? You only thought this was a bug. Actually, this is a … uh… negative feature!? A one-track composition, once Multi-Part is disable, becomes a…a…one-track composition, thus rendering it unlinkable.

Well, if you are having trouble with these expectations, have a dose or two of your favorite mind-altering substance. It might become clearer.

Besides, do you really expect the entire album to be correctly displayed?? C’mon.
