Description Of Issue
After updating to version 1.7 all of my newer playlists show that my local tracks are “Unavailable “ but my Tidal tracks are playing fine in those playlists. All the tracks shown unavailable in the playlists are available in Albums and all play just fine. Other than the playlist issue I have no other problems with version 1.7. I have tried restarting my ROCK a couple of times but that did nothing for me. I can’t restore from a backup because that would be an earlier version. I really don’t want to rebuild them since some of them last over 24 hours. Any thoughts on how to get them them working again? Thanks.
Hopefully the screenshot ones through. The screenshot process isn’t working in a way tat makes sense to me. Thought i could copy to clipboard and paste it that doesn’t seem to work.
3 different sreenshots follow. The first shows local tracks unavailable and tidal tracks available, the second shows local tracks available and the third shows local tracks unavailable. As far as backups, th only ones would be version 1.6 backups when the tracks were available. Since updating to version 1…7 they have been unavailable.
All the file that show as unavailable in the playlists play just fine from albums, for the 3rd time, not sure how many times I need to state this. No changes have been made to storage, files have been in the same place since long before I started using Roon.
I see that the Skyfall album is not identified. If you identify this album manually is there any change after that?
If that does not work, can you navigate to Settings > Library > Clean Up Library and share a screenshot of this page? Note — You do not want to run this process, we just want to see the picture showing the numbers here.
I don’t understand what you are asking me to do in #1. Skyfall was downloaded from HDTracks as a single so there isn’t really on an album. I don’t understand how I would manually add an album.
Do you have any backups from before this issue occurred? Even if the backup is from an earlier version you should still be able to restore the backup and it will update as a part of the restore.
How can I find the date of a backup and the date that I updated to version 1.7. I have another question regarding backups and Dropbox. I only use Dropbox for RoonBackups. I have a Roon set to only save 1 backup on Dropbox. Yet every 3 or so months I get a message from Dropbox that it is full. Why? When I go into Dropbox it is full of Roon folders of a variety of dates. Doesn’t Roon delete old backups before saving new on DropBox?
You should be able to see the dates of the backups through Roon when you go to Backups > Browse button next to Find Backups > and selecting This Folder for the backup location.
Can you share a screenshot of what you see in dropbox? When you go to find backups do you see multiple here?
OK, I went back and restored the last version 1.6 database. When it was done and relaunched, it came up immediately and said there was a update for ROCK waiting to relaunch. I did that and it came up saying an update to the database was needed, it did that and all the tracks again show as unavailable.
As far as Dropbox, I had deleted the folder a couple of weeks ago so I can’t post a screenshot at the moment. When it occurs again, I will.
Not sure what to do now about my playlists. I could try an older backup, but not sure if that would do if anything to solve the problem.

Just to add more confusion to this topic, I just went through all my playlists in alphabetical order.
Every other playlist that has local tracks shows them Unavailable. The alternate playlist have no issues even if some of the tracks that show Unavailable in other playlists are in them, if that makes any sense.
