Description of Issue

After updating to newest Roon, it stopped working.
Couldn’t reinstall 831. Got the same loop.
This all after a restore of my backup.

Then i read something about scaling in Windows. Setting it back to 100% did the job. 183 did now install and restored the db.

I don’t care about your silly updates (each time you guys make Roon worse imho) but my iphone updated allready to 880. (thats the last time I do something like that)

Tried to install 880 with scaling back to 100% but that didn’t work. Got the loop again after restoring the db.

I’ve installed and reïnstalled Roon now 8 times. Bit tired of doing that.
I’ll kept the logs, so if someone can help I will send them to you.

Hey @PhiloMelos,

I’m so sorry to hear about what you’ve been going through… , especially after doing so much to get things working. I’m dismayed it’s not the only time either…

We’d love to help . You mentioned:

Got the loop again after restoring the db.

Could you please tell us more about that? Do you see an error message? Is Roon just not launching now?

Hi @rebeka

Thank you for your time.

With 80000 tracks I need to restore the backup of the database, otherwise it’s analyzing for a week again.
So after installing Roon I get the screen where you can choose restore backup.
After that the restore completes and ask me to relaunch. That’s when I get the beginscreen of Roon loading. And then nothing. The same screen for ever.

I started with just updating to 1880. It got stuck. That’s why I had to restore.
But installing 1830 again and restoring the backup didn’t work. Yeah, after I read about scaling screen back at 100%
Maybe it’s my 4K screen?

That’s when I finally got Roon 183 working again. (With restored backup)

But I have the logs for you.

Hi @PhiloMelos ,

Earlier today, we released a new build of Roon that may help with the issues you were experiencing. Please try to restore your previous database on the new release and let us know if it helps!

Roon 1.8 (Build 882) is Live!

Hi everyone! Our release earlier this week included changes big and small, ranging from large-scale improvements like our Art Director integration, to important infrastructure changes like improved monitoring of database health. Many of the changes were driven by feedback from the community, and we’re happy this release has been stable for most users. That said, we know there have been issues for some of you and our team has been working around the clock since Wednesday to understand these pro…

And it worked! Thanx.

But please test an update next time much more thouroughly.
This was very bad for my health!

ps: please stop with those silly emailallerts. Since I use a vpn get these mails everytime I log in.
Is there a way I can stop this? For now Roon goes straight into my spamfolder.
