I‘d say every player is designed one way or another and I’d run it the way it’s intended
I would really prefer to read posts related to “Roon acquired by Harman International” in this thread.
The moderators are being very lenient with this thread in particular. It seems to me the thread has ran its course, it’s just a case of wait & see.
One observation is that updates seem to be coming through markedly less frequently.
They have been monthly all year and now it’s 1 week longer than usual. Granted it will take a little longer but clearly within normal variations.
I really hope they do release an update with fixes to 1353 pretty soon… it has been a month already, let’s see if they do before the holidays.
I suppose they will when they are confident of having a fix. This necessary bugfix aside, the constant “too many updates!” vs “too few updates!” complaints (not yours, generally) are also getting a bit old.
I personally hate frequent updates to push new version on schedule, including the yearly MacOS update. An update of version and new features should be pushed when ready and tested, not on a schedule. Unfortunatley with the modern agile development, that is what we get - unpolished and unfinished versions, with bugs… because it is developed in a rush, in a competing market.
But I like frequent bug fix updates, which should be handled with urgency.
Purely an observation not a criticism
The deviations are far more interesting and - mostly - factual than the ‘posts relating to’ …

Congrats Roon team!
It has been quite a while since I’ve been here. Just quietly enjoying this awesome contraption you’ve cooked up after it reached critical mass for me.
I took a leap, jumping on the bandwagon as a ‘lifer’ early. You’ve more than come through over the years. With unabated enthusiasm, quality drive and great new features.
Good to see you’re reaching the next maturity step! Well earned!
All the confidence we will see more improvements from this awesome team over the upcoming years, while continuity assurance has stepped up significantly.
Again, congrats from a very happy user. I know you will keep it up!

Since the announcement, has there been communication from the team? Is everybody still working there? I opened a topic for Support but never had answers. Also no update since the announcement or I missed one?
@jamie has been around , he may know
Maybe they are all busy musing / laughing over the fast approaching 1000 posts of utter speculation in this thread.
I admired it when it was an American company. I admired some of the brand they took over but we will see if they trash them.
Andy do you really think that. It hard enough to get it to work as it is. Maybe they will start with the documentation.
To bad Apple did or Sony did not Acquire Room.
I have three Roon servers, three lifetime subscriptions, three at home end-points including 2 RPi4’s and 1 Oppo 203, Meridian Prime, Bose system, Denon AVR-2805, Pioneer HPM-60 speakers, Focal Clear headphones, Sony headphones, 2 iPads, 2 iPhones,1 Dell laptop, one Mac Mini, and 1 Nucleus. Oh yes, Mojo2, FiiO KA1, and AQ Dragonfly Cobalt. Subscriptions to Tidal, Qobuz, Apple Music.
I’m not worried in the least.
