I have 31 Bob Dylan albums. Roon sees 90+ albums between Tidal and Qobuz
January 1 listening marathon, I searched “Bob Dylan” and hit “play artist”
69 songs later, I’m thinking… there’s a lot of repeats happening here. So I selected and downloaded the queue and here it is.
Huh?
I’m sure I can press a few focus and other buttons to avoid this, but why is the default to only play a certain tiny subset of songs and then repeat them? And why are they all from Qobuz?
Looking over Bob Dylan’s discography page, it looks like there are more albums of his on Qobuz than discovery, so seeing a majority of Qobuz albums is not too unexpected.
I tried to reproduce the behavior on my end and out of 100 tracks, there were no repeats as far as I could tell, here is the tracklist I saw:

Do you by any chance have Limit Roon Radio to Library turned on?
I did notice about 90% of the queue on my end was from Qobuz as well, with the occasional TIDAL track, this is most likely because Qobuz has a larger Bob Dylan collection.
If you fast-forwarded enough, you may have seen one or two TIDAL tracks later in. If you notice any more strange track repeats, please do let us know!
