I have noticed a lot of inconsistancy/strange behavior about displaying file format information in ROON 1.8 when enabled “show album format” under Setting\General\Customize Album display - , please fix.
Under Browse \ Home:
Recent Activity: Added/Played (Blue Purple screen) - only some albums are showing file format info like AIFF 24/192, MQA 44kHz etc. but others doesn’t show at all, also the TIDAL album badge is showing 2 different styled of badges. However when you click “more” to expand the page - no albums are able to display file format information at all whether it is recently Added or recently Played.
New Releases for you - expanded (by clicking More) : no album file format information is displayed at all.
however if you goto Browse \ Genres \ under each Genres \ New Releases for you - expanded (by clicking More) : Album file format information is now displayed.
Under Browse \ TIDAL:
no Album file format information is displayed anywhere , unable to tell album format when browsing (ie Tidal Masters (MQA) or Flac or AAC etc… )
Under My Library \ Album:
Album file format information is displayed normally, including TIDAL MQA albums
Same here. I have I can’t distinguish MQA and non-MQA albums from looking at the covers as before. Not even the file type or bitrate. Please add this back!
I agree, not being able to see the format on any albums that are not on your library has been a major setback. The metadata exists, so I hope it’s matter of time to add it back. The New releases for you section has become useless. I now have to go directly to Tidal and Qobuz to actually see the format.

Description Of Issue
In the previous version 1.7, I had activated a setting that showed the file format on the cover image (24/96, DSD64, etc.). I do not see where/how to do that in the new 1.8 version. Sscreenshot attached. Can someone point me in the right direction pls?
Ok this is weird. I got the blue rectangle pop-op ‘an update is required’, after which Roon came back very quickly (meaning no DB rebuild like with the larger updates) and now look at the info when you click ‘more’:
Same problem here. iOS remote (iPhone) as well as iPad cycle between showing bitrate beneath album thumbnails and not showing bitrate beneath album thumbnails. Extremely annoying.
Has anyone seen this file format before? FLAC 44,1 khz 24bit 2ch MQA DSD 64x48? No authentication or upsampling in the signal path (upsampling set to DSD256) and no MQA-rendering on my Mytek Brooklyn DAC+. My Lumin U1 mini is just showing PCM 44,1khz/24bit. Thx!
Can you please let us know the track/artist you saw this with? We have a ticket tracking this behavior and I can add this as an additional example, thanks!
It’s this track from Jon Hopkins: Emerald Rush on the album Singularity (Qobuz). It’s the only track on the album having this odd format. Rest is 44,1/24. Cheers!
