Roon 2.0 <-> 1.8 migration

Database compatibility between Roon 2.0 and 1.8 Legacy ended with Roon 2.0 Build 1148 in November 2022:

Hello Everyone,

This week’s Roon 2.0 release includes a few significant changes to Roon and ARC.

As of this build it will no longer be possible to perform an in-place downgrade from Roon 2.0 to Roon 1.8 Legacy. Users currently running 1.8 Legacy will continue to receive support and updates, but we are at a point that we need to break compatibility in order to deliver future enhancements in Roon 2.0.

If you have only a backup of a current 2.0 database, you cannot restore the backup with 1.8 Legacy. So you will need to start fresh with 1.8.

If you have kept an older backup, made before this 2.0 build 1148, then you probably can restore that
