No, Roon on ROCK using a NUC that has a Roon Core database dating from 2015.
Last time I had to start from a fresh database was after Build 30
Hello I have exactly the same issue. Have you found a resolution?
Youâve got to wonder if Team Roon is considering lowering the number of supported platforms. Are there too many to support vs spending that time on stability and features?
If you ran on a device that was going to become unsupported and were told that you had one year to switch to a supported platform, would you? Or would you move on?
Has there been any reports of Nucleus or Roon specified ROCK on NUC?
Iâm running Roon Rock on a series 4 Nuc.
Upgrade went smoothly.
No issues. Although I can see many have, hopefully these can be sorted.

This is the question. Forced obsolescence isnât a good look.
I get that Roon will always run best on Roon-designed/engineered components. But to be forced to go that direction because their update bricked my perfectly good alternative, well, that makes a guy pretty salty.
But what is a reasonable time frame for backward compatibility? Should Roon run on a Commodore 64 or Windows 3.0?

hmnmm, not saying that.
Just that it would be good to know if an update will kill the app on my mac.

I agree, thatâs why I picked a yearâs notice. Maybe it could be longer, but it may be necessary. Would you spend the $500 - $600 or so to have a super stable core that upgraded without issue if given enough notice?
Win7 is end of life/end of support. It had a good run. Shouldnât Team Roon do the same? Less distraction would serve well the entire community.
Not to mention the high blood pressure these failed upgrades incur.
Or, maybe they should just sell Roon pre-installed on a Nucleus.

Wonderful. If i read correctly: yesterday I had an almost corrupted but working database with no warning and today I have a unusable corrupted database and 10 unusable backup of this same unusable database. And no tool allowing to rebuild it or at least a part of it.
Congrats. Very nice work.

Thanks for the steer Simon - I got lucky and found a backup from a 6 weeks or so ago that now seems to be running smoothly and Iâve added little in that time that isnât in my watch folder, so I am more or less where I left off. I hope the rest of you have some luck and can find a stable backup that doesnât crush your soul!

âPlaylists by Roonâ? I love you, Roon. But I canât overstate how much I do not and will not care about your playlists or your expertsâ playlists as long as I cannot edit my own Tidal playlists in Roon. I spent years creating playlists in iTunes, and Iâve spent years recreating and expanding them in Tidal. Nobody creates playlists for me better than I do. Roon is a great way to discover new music and rediscover old music, except that I canât add any of those discoveries directly to my existing playlists. Iâm starting to think you just donât care about us old Gen X mix tape makers.

But I donât see an update for the Pkg that gets installed on my NAS
Seems like great new features. I noticed that when I tried to add a Qobuz album to my library, it just kept on spinning. When I navigated away and back to the album, I get a plus sign to add to library. When I reboot Roon, the album page shows up as a library album, but the album icon does not show up in ârecently addedâ on my home page. All this is from a Roon Remote on my iMac Pro; my Roon core is a Nucleus.
Count me in as one of the chumps with a corrupt database. This sucks.
Iâm sorry but no.
Thanks, Simon. I checked out the linked thread and will monitor it. What a loss.

Web display - I see the port number for web display changed to 9330 with 880 so got that sorted.
However, Iâm now not getting full art - just the lower left thumbnail and the upper defocussed background. Iâve tried on a number of devices with the same result.
Anyone else?
(btw - otherwise all good with the 880 upgrade so far)

Not getting many answers from Roon, but Iâll try again. As an example, the thumbnail image for Duran Duran is a logo. I looked in Valence and there are 24 accepted Avatar images, some pictures and some logos. What is the logic behind using a logo instead of a picture. And am I correct in assuming that these images are no longer under my control but what is displayed is whatever the community decides?
