Roon 1.8 (Build 943) Feedback

Don’t have anything of that, Roon Remote running on a Win7 i7 machine with 8GB RAM

I’m between 4-5% for roon (idle). On my M1 MacBook. But I believe that’s for 1 core.

Like the update so far.

Hi Bert. In relation to Point 2, I have experienced the same on IMac at various times over the past 4-5 releases.
Obviously pressing the space bar, starts the music again as I’m sure you are already aware of, however the trick seems to be (for me at least) to ensure that my cursor is actually flashing in the search entry box before I type the words for my search request.
Only happens very rarely now.
Hope that helps.

Thanks, and for the collection stats: yours is about twice the size of mine, so that doesn’t seem to be the issue, though it does unfortunately now seem to be my issue.

Another Mac/iPhone user here. iPhone has to connect to core every time I use it. Mac application is incredibly slow and right now is telling me I have no tags. Devialet Phantoms are unusable due to constant drop outs. And now the Expert Pro just stopped in the middle of a track. Also I had TIDAL authentication failures until I restarted the server application.

Another MAc/iphone user as well - Core seems to lose connection to the audio zones and the iPhone app is crashing constantly. Restarts of apps, core, computer and iPhone don’t seem to improve things. Previous build did not have these issues.

Andorid phone is also having to reconnect more than previous versions it’s always had this issue but does seem to be more prevalent, perhaps a memory leak?. It must be using more resources and the os is killing it. It does seem to affect lower memory device, my phone has 6gb which isn’t that low a and has always had this issue to sown degree if it’s left in BG for any length of time. The app in general is too resource hungry, other server client apps I have don’t have the same issue.

It’s loose connection or this, made so many tickets about the same thing, happened on my OnePlus as well before the pixel, excuse is its always the device memory. Funny how it’s only Roon that’s affected though.

Anyone get this issue on Tracks on Android, using scroll bar is awful and looses images badly. Put a ticket in

Simon it doesn’t seem like it is publicly shared

Try now. Bloody Google.

Thankfully not that’s about as bad as it can be.
If you throw the app out of memory does it come back smoother?

This was fresh after reboot nothing else running. It’s getting worse on Android 12 every release. I might ditch Andorid entirely for my next phone and go back to the dark side been nearly 6 years and see if it works any better.

Possibly still starting background tasks?
But I assume it’s the same 5 minutes later

Swore off Google’s own phones several year’s ago, but three of my colleagues have them now, so always tempted again, but always issues with them more than anything else I look at

Killed it and it’s the same.

I have an iPad Pro. I don’t have a problem with point 1, but in respect of point 2 the space bar does pause the music in the search box. Not an issue with previous releases. There’s no such problem with Roon remote on Windows 10 so it must have something to do with Roon remote for Macintosh products.

try re booting the PC and Network system ?

Thanks for this update. Great to be able to use the iPad Pro Keyboard, makes listening much easier!

Hello, thanks for the tip. Of course I have already tried that but nothing worked
Anyway I have just tried to access and I could access Roon
I really don’t know what happened, maybe they fixed the bug… :face_with_raised_eyebrow: :laughing:

Very happy with the support added for the Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad. But just now I found one issue with the implementation: On an iPad with the Magic Keyboard, if you try to change position of a track in the play queue, it doesn’t quite behave as expected.

The picked track “gets loose”, but when you try to hold and drag it away from its original position with the trackpad, you simply scroll the whole play queue up and down, while the picked track stays in its original position.

Peculiar. :slight_smile:

When I choose a bookmark with a focus result in Album view and then go somewhere else, the Album view shows all albums (not the bookmark) when I return to Albums. Is this new in 943? I could have sworn that previously it kept showing the bookmark, and I found that more convenient. Am I going mad?
