Ripping my CD's to new Nucleus. Problems with albums that have multiple discs

[Steve_Sennewald]

I’m a brand new Roon user. Purchased a Nucleus and ripping my CD collection. I am using an Apple Superdrive to rip the CDs.

When an album has multiple discs Roon has difficulty identifying the additional discs. If I use the “unidentified” procedure, Roon will usually identify the correct album and list all of the tracks on every disc of that album (on the leftt side of the screen).

If I save the disc information it will erroneously list the track titles of the first disc.

What am I doing wrong?

Full disclosure: as I said earlier in this thread, Roon sometimes needs help to identify the correct release, particularly with boxsets. Once I had used Roon to rip all four CDs in this set, it had matched one CD, but th…
