Qobuz gapless playback gone [Improvements released with Roon build 1202]

I concur, earlier today I had a couple of tracks of a live album go Gapless. Now I’m listening to same album and it’s screwed up again. Definitely intermittent to some degree.

Same here. Gapless playback not working on some classical lps where orchestral play IS continuous but broken up into different tracks based on tempo markings etc…gaps are REALLY annoying here.

Same problem. Gapless playback disappeared on Qobuz.
As I’m listening many progressive rock albums, it’s a huge issue….
Thanks for fixing it as soon as possible …

I’m having the same problem in the UK. Wasn’t sure whether Qobuz or Roon to blame. From the postings here it sounds like Roon, but I haven’t her tried listening to Qobuz direct to see if it recurs. It’s quite a serious issue for someone like me who listens primarily to classical.

Description of Issue

Qobuz no longer plays gapless on any Roon endpoints.
It used to be gapless and I’ve not changed anything.
Suspect build 1169 caused this but not positive.
Using same endpoints with DLNA and Qobuz via mConnect is gapless.
Using Qobuz app on MacBook with USB/Optical to DACs mentioned above is gapless.

Yes. Forgot to mention local files are still gapless

Definitely not gapless on Qobuz opening track of this album is gapless to the next but not via Roon.

Also not gapless via ARC.

Still gapless for me, in the UK.

I doubt that very much unless you didn’t update.

I’ve experienced that it can be intermittent in its nature of operation

I’m on the latest versions. It’s not a universal issue.

I’m fully up to date and have gapless playback on Qobuz.

I am mostly getting a very inconsistent gapless experience across a range of genres in Qobuz. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. But with some albums I am consistently not getting gapless. I am curious. Is anyone getting gapless for this one (track 1 to track 2)?

IT’s intermittent and random. HTH.

Yes. That’s exactly the issue. It’s universal.

A 4 second delay is not a problem for me. It’s usually a second.

It’s a live album. The gap between tracks should be 0 seconds, aka “gapless”.

OK (10 char).

I’m in the UK and all the Qobuz versions (3) had no gap between tracks 1 and 2. As it’s late here, I am not playing through amps, etc, just direct from Roon to my Windows 11 laptop.
I have experienced this issue over the last few days with other albums and it does seem to be a wee bit random.

Yes, I’m getting gapless playback on that. Now that I know what you mean by “gapless,” the music stops, the crowd cheers, next song starts with no silence, no delay.

But, there is a delay on some other tracks.
