· Hello. I have had Roon for years but the music playback is getting worse. When I play music from my hard drive it pauses every 4 or 5 songs. And when I listen to songs from Tidal it stops every 20 or 30 seconds. The playback stops every few minutes, and there are more pauses when listening through TIDAL. How can you help me? Thanks Carlos Escobar

Hey @losbarman,

Thanks for writing in and sharing your report, and welcome to the community! We’re excited to have you here - you’re in the right spot for technical support. :+1:

The first area to check - your connection from your Windows running Roon Server to your router. Can you set up a direct ethernet connection to your router, and see if you run into the same issues?

If you haven’t yet, I’d also safely stop Roon Server from running, and then power cycle both your windows machine and your router.

If you could then please reproduce the issue, share the specific track name, and the please use the directions found here and send over a set of logs to our File Uploader?

Thank you! :raised_hands:

Hello Dear Benjamin.

My roon is getting worse.

I have my PC connected with erhernet cable to the router.

But. When I use ROON with TIDAL, play music 3 seconds, then stops 3 seconds, then play music 3 seconds, and that is ciclic. All the time.

When I play ROON using my Hard disk, the music play 40 seconds and then stops many seconds, and then play música 30 or 50 seconds, and stock aguinaldo.

Please. I need help.

Can you reboot my ROON?.

Best

HI @losbarman,

Thanks for the update - can you include more information around your issue specifically? What endpoints are you attempting to play audio to? What is the specific track name when you experience this issue?

Can you please:

  1. Disable all DSP, and only play audio to the system output of your windows 10 machine, and see if you run into the same issue?
  2. Reboot your router and see if it helps

We do not have this capability, but you can stop Roon Server via your windows system tray, and then reboot your machine.

Hi Benjamin.

What is all DSP?

I try to reinstall ROON. But I can not desinstall ROON in my computer.

How can reinstall?

Hi @losbarman,

DSP means Digital Signal Processing. You can see what if any DSP is active by clicking the volume icon and then the wave button. It looks like this.

Can you give us more detail on what is blocking you from uninstalling Roon from your computer?
