Roon 2.71 hotfix (#1683) is Live!

Hey Everyone,

We’re rolling out a hotfix to address critical issues that surfaced in our latest production release. This update targets key bugs that were impacting the Roon experience for RoonOS and macOS users.

For RoonOS, we fixed the issue that caused RoonServer to appear as “Not Running” in the WebUI when the server was active.

For macOS users running macOS 12 or 13, we addressed a bug that prevented RoonServer from starting. The other macOS versions (14 and higher) were not affected, and there should be no change in the behaviour.

We also included a couple of minor fixes to the Daily Picks feature based on recent user feedback.

Thank you for your patience and continued support as we quickly resolve these issues.

The Team at Roon Labs
