Playlist artist search fails after space entry (ref#VPAI71)

Hi! What’s not quite right with Roon?

· None of the above quite fits

None of the above quite fits

· App interface looks or behaves oddly

Tell us what's going on

· I have an issue when searching for an artist within a playlist: When I type a name such as Philipp Fankhauser, the search works at first, but as soon as I enter a letter after hitting the space (after the first name), the result becomes empty. Hence, after pressing the space bar, no results are shown anymore. However, searching the same way in the Artists section (with space bar) works as expected.

Tell us about your home network

· All Cat6 cabling, no Wi-Fi. Fiber-Router connected to a UNIFI Switch USW Lite 8 PoE -> Nucelus. On the same network is a Holo Red connected with eth via another USW Lite 8 PoE

Interesting. For what it’s worth, this is what happens for me:

But I do notice that I am using an “imported” m3u playlist, for what it’s worth.

Hi @Stefan_Mauron,

Thank you for your post. We so far haven’t been able to reproduce this with the same artist (or other artists) during internal testing. Does this reproduce consistently? It doesn’t reproduce when filtering with other fields, like Albums?

The filter and global search rely on separate mechanisms, so it’s understandable that you can older reproduce this while filtering within a playlist.

We’ll watch for your response. Thank you!

Dear Connor, thanks for your reply. The problem is persistent. It happens in both scenarios, when a playlist consits only of artits pointing to Qobuz as source, or if a playlist consist of a combination of Qobuz and locally stored artists.

It happens as well, when I try to filter track names within a playlist.

Even after re-installing a new database, the problem exists. What I also tried was to copy the playlist to Qobuz resulting in the same when I try to search within that particular playlist.

Hey @Stefan_Mauron,

Thanks for the reply! Sorry to hear a fresh install didn’t help. Our team is still unable to reproduce this on our end - are you able to reproduce this issue no matter the Roon remote you use?

Or, is this specific to a singular device? Does this only happen under the artist search field, or can you reproduce this using track / album as well?

Does this also happen on a Qobuz curated playlist? For example, under ‘New Releases’?

Thank you!

Hi Benjamin

Thankyou for your response. My answers:

  • On iOS Devce: search in playlist works normaly.
  • On macOS searching in playlists from within Qobuz: works normaly.
  • On macOS: searching in local playlist results as initially described (100% reproduceable in my case)

Regards, Stefan
