Roon 2.0.38 and ARC 1.0.55 are live!

Hello Everyone,

The Roon Team is excited to release two new features today – Roon’s new Playlist Improver, and ARC’s Folder Browser!

Playlist Improver

The first change in today’s release is our new Playlist Improver! :rocket:

Our Playlist Improver earns its name by instantly remedying unavailable and duplicate tracks in your lists or upgrading songs with higher-quality selections or the primary version in your library. You can approve and save changes to playlists of all sizes with just a few clicks or review and savor each suggestion individually. Like all things Roon, the choice is yours.

The Playlist Improver is available in Roon on desktop and tablet platforms. For more details about the Playlist Improver, check out our blog and watch the how-to video.

Folder Browser in ARC

This release also includes the debut of Roon’s folder browsing functionality in ARC!

This has been a popular request since folder browsing went live in Roon, and we’re excited to deliver the same functionality to Roon users on the go! For more Folder Browsing details, click here to read our blog!

Note that you will need to be online and connected to your Roon Server to use ARC’s folder browser.

Thanks everyone!

The Team at Roon Labs
