An update on my progress.
I achieved local playback and introduced Tailscale as a built in VPN.
It all works. I can and did achieve playback when on mobile data.
2 issues. All relates to the frontend being a PWA (Progressive Web App).
Issue 1 - for background playback I have to change the method of delivery. Latency then creeps up to 5 to 6 seconds. Occasionally longer.
Issue 2 - for 0.5 second latency I cannot achieve background audio playback.
These are the limitations I’ve hit with several projects using PWA frontends.
So for now while I look at options, I’ll do a UI polish and leave this parked for the time being - v1.3.2 should come through soon.
werner@MacMini Applications % tar -xzf ~/Downloads/roon-random-albums.tar.gz
tar: /Users/werner/Downloads/roon-random-albums.tar.gz: m: No such file or directory
What can be done about that?
Where do you download the latest version to on the Mac?
I didn’t give it a second thought. I just followed the installation instructions as given in this thread.

This is great! Using this on desktop / chrome / macos.
Does it always pull the same number of albums? for me it looks like it’s pulling enough columns to fill horizontally and one more row than will fit vertically. I’m kinda guessing it’s supposed to pull enough to fill the current window size without scrolling?
On installing I didn’t notice at first the “YOU” in the plist file that I needed to replace - didn’t see that in the README, might want to mention it.
thanks!

I will check this. It should be device specific.
I’ll make a few extra tweaks for v1.3.4
Ah yes it is. Maybe my brain saw the centered text as headlines and skipped right past lol

I’ll be away from home for almost a month. I think I’ll have lots of things to test when I get back. Good luck and thanks again for your work.

Thanks @Dirk-Pitt 
Unless Roon update/add to their API I’m limited in what I’d like to achieve. I may look a folding some existing extensions into this.
That being said, @Stephen has released an extension recently and maybe he has plans to update the API.
