Roon ARC Not Playing KKBOX Songs Despite having a Subscription

The title says it all really, Roon ARC will not play any songs or albums with a K logo, Indicating KKBOX songs will not play despite having a subscription. I have Roon ARC working with tailscale & it plays Qobuz & Tidal songs fine but not KKBOX, it will play remotely at place of employment & familys home but will not play kkbox, it just says poor connection. I have tried using Urban VPN with a Taiwan connection but the songs still will not play.

Does anyone have the solution?

Are you sure Roon is compatible with KKBOX? It’s not available in my country.

Yeah, its compatible with Roon in New Zealand as in I can see & browse all the KKBOX Albums, but they will not play

I came looking for an easy fix & possibly a VPN Fix, but I do not know if there will be one

Featuring over 100 million legal tracks, KKBOX is currently available in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore, and continues to cultivate the music industry chain as a major Taiwan brand.

Which is exactly why im looking for a VPN, Router or Proxy workaround, i already know most of this information

Well, you said it’s compatible with Roon in NZ but it’s not, so it wasn’t clear that you know. You are trying to pretend with a VPN that you are in a different country, and that’s just not the same thing

I mean its pretty aggravating I can pay for a KKBOX subscription but not access all the content.

I have made some progress playing one Tool album linked to KKBOX with the K symbol but this Tool album also had a Qobuz alternative with the Q symbol. Both play.

But there must be some proxy alternative to play KKBOX content

Not really my bag of tricks but couldn’t you run a vpn on your router?

Yeah, thanks for the suggestion dude, best advice so far, this is what i will try next

I have struggled to get on to the router here but will try IP adresses for a Huawei Router later on
