Roon 2.0 Build 1354 Issues

Oh, I guess you need to load the Roon (Windows remote) manually from here: Roon Early Access Download Links

I didn’t realize that as I thought it would automatically update like the Roon Server does with EA using the Sonic Transporter.

All good and thanks for the comments.

It does, but your screenshot shows that your Roon Remote is on the Production stream, and it has already updated to the latest release (build 1353) of that stream.

See here:

This is linked twice when going to the Early Access area of the forum:

As noted, Early Access is not entirely without risks. If using it, I very much recommend that you read the information that is made available, the link above and the release notes for each respective build that you will find here:

I get it now. I’m on Early Access Roon Server with my Sonic Transporter. I just need to manually update for the Roon Remote on my Windows machines…

The only issue I’m seeing with Build 1354 is I have to clear the image cache multiple times per day to get album covers to display.

EDIT: This happens every time I shutdown the Roon GUI. This is on my Dell Windows 11 laptop server using Verizon cellular data. Since I’m out of town, I don’t know if this is an issue when using Nucleus or Mac Mini servers.

Still freezes. Jumping from one track to the next and to the next again on an album. Ios on iPad. Have to wipe the app and connect again. Then ok. Iritating.

Lots of this and iOS crashing.

I have reading lately the comments on the forum the last two build of Roon have been very problematic on iOS. But is not only on iOS, running my Roon on a synology ds3615xs I am suffering a lot of issues.

For example, long wait when changing tracks, search is slow to a point that stops Roon and music playback constantly, sometimes Roon restarts without a motive.

Streaming stops with multiple device brands, naim, Eversolo, if I zen stream, Sotm sms 200 ultra, bluesound, even streaming to iPad.

I not a network issue, because it was working perfectly two versions ago, after the 1310 update the issues started and the 1354 helped with sime but maintained the ones I described above.

I know we are on early access, but there are a lot of users on the oficial complaining about the same problems on build 1353.

Some of this issues make Roon sometimes almost frustrating to use and should be a priority on the bug listo to correct and give as a fast update to finish at least some of the issues, and make Roon fast and responsive again.

For some people and with unknown (I think) causes, definitely not fundamentally or for everyone

There are also several people on 1353 production who were raving what a great update that was and how much faster everything is.

Never had issues before the last e two builds of Roon. But there are a lot more posters with the same problems.

That may well be, but there are also others (most) without problems and some reporting overall improvements. What I mean is just that in software (or any technical field) it is important to name precisely how a problem presents itself because it gives hints at possible causes. Overstatement clouds the issues. Maybe the affected setups have something in common that triggers the issue(s) but it’s clearly not effecting all setups.

Maybe is a Linux issue, or synology related. I will try to dig into it and try running the server on another machines.

4 posts were split to a new topic: Anyone else get have this OpenGL issue?

FWIW I am on ROCK, Mac, iPhone, iPad (and a simple network) and not experiencing any issues

My iMac was in version 1297 early access, never updated and Roon was working fast as expected, no slowdowns, no network issues, simply was working as I remembered until I also updated today to the last 1354 on the imac, and now the same issues are present…

So is not Linux related.

Your screen grab indicates that your tablet updated to the latest early access version, but Roon Server still seems to be on build 1297.

Yes, you are right, the iMac was not on for months and had an old version of early access, and for an hour or two it worked as a champion, at least until I updated Roon to the latest 1354 version, then the same issues that I Am living on the synology Roon server lately appeared.
