Hi there, Roon keeps crashing when I try and open certain Artist pages. The problem is linked to Tidal, if I log out of Tidal the problem goes away. Using a Nucleus as a Roon Core. The problem is with the windows app on my desktop PC (have not tried iphone or ipad). I am currently logged out of Tidal now and Roon is working perfectly. Roon almost unusable if logged into Tidal.

Hi, @Richard_Lane, thank you for the report. Could you, please, tell which artists are affected by that issue? Is this happening on your Core machine or one of your remotes?
Thanks!

Hi Ivan. Thanks for getting back to me. I have a nucleus as my core machine. And the crashes happen on my windows laptop which acts as a remote. I have had Tidal turned off since this started to happen to me. I just turned it back on now and will let you know what artists it crashes for when it happens.
Hi @ivan it is now crashing on the roon home screen when I use the windows roon app on my laptop. iphone and ipad apps absolutly fine.

Hi, @Richard_Lane, thank you for the reply. Could you, please, share logs from your windows machine?
@michael_o, could you, please, tell if that crash with George Michael is consistent for your?
Thanks!

Hi. Yes I will try and do that. Is there a guide for how to share logs from windows machines? I reviewed the FAQs but could not see any instructions. thanks.
The steps to share logs are listed here in the Overview section, and the article also shows the location for the logs on Windows machines…
Hello Ivan: The crash with George Michael is consistent with my Mac and intermittent with iOS. I reinstalled Roon on my Mac, but that didn’t help. I followed Richard’s advice, and disabled the Tidal connection, and the Mac app stopped crashing. I can successfully see the George Michael page with Tidal disabled.

Hi @Geoff_Coupe that is useful and will help me creat logs from my Nucleus core. However, I think @ivan asked for logs from my windows machine. Any idea how to do that? thanks!
Follow the instructions for the Windows Core location - it is the same location in the Windows Roon client.
Sorry for a late reply, @Richard_Lane. The logs, which I asked for, are Roon logs, you can find an article how find them if you follow [this article](https://Logs as @Geoff_Coupe suggested.
@michael_o, could you, please, follow the instruction and sent me logs form your macOS machine too?
Thanks!

HI @ivan . sorry for the delay with this. Roon on windows still crashes for me when logged into Tidal. It last crashed on 18:52 on 10th Feb. I have found the log files on my windows pc and the link is shared below:
I’m having the same but i use Qobuz (Using the Windows Player, linux core running as a docker in unraid), it started sporadically and is now happening more and more on seemingly random artists, artists that have recently worked .
This is all that’s in the log before the crash occurs.

This particular instance was for an artist that I didn’t have in my library, purely remote qobuz browsing but I have had this issue with artists that I have in my local library that I went back to browse and app would randomly crash.
Still occurring for me after updating to Build 903
yes. me too. crashed on the home page for me, everytime. no problem with iphone or ipad. only crashes on windows laptop
Ok I managed to resolve this by following an answer from an older thread that had a similar issue.
- Navigate to the Roon installation folder
- Rename the folder to Roon-old
- Reinstall client
It seems to me like some local files get corrupted over time and cause this behaviour with the desktop clients.
any idea how to do this on a Mac? I have same issue with the artist loading (Roon with Qobuz in my case). Redicoulous to see why we need to have to raise these issues. It seems a lot of us are dealing with an unresponsive Roon client stopped just before the weekend…
My guess is this will be in the user library folder somewhere
Found a workaround. On my iPhone Roon works. So on my iPhone I logged out from Qobuz and now Roon continues on MacOS. Feels a little clumsy if you ask me. This is not a $9,95 app. Its a $9,95 subscribed app which we may expect more of. I’m also surprised there is no community announcement of issues with the infra.
