Show playlists containing individual tracks

Hello Roon team and fellow Early Access users,

I’m José Luis Llave, a musical curator and symbolic documentarian who uses Roon not only for listening, but for crafting a ritualized chronicle of everyday life through playlists and emotional tagging.

In Settings > Album Page Preferences, there is an option to “Show playlist links” that displays links to playlists containing the full album.

I’d like to suggest extending this functionality to individual tracks. That is, when viewing a track (or via its context menu), it would be very helpful to see a link to any playlists that include that specific track.

This would greatly improve playlist management, especially for users who build their collections track by track, as part of a more curated and symbolic listening experience.

Thank you for considering this enhancement and for continuing to improve such a wonderful platform.

@jluisllv,

You probably want to move this into Feature Suggestions - Roon Labs Community or get one of the mods to move it for you.

But if you click though to the album from the playlist.

You can already see the multiple playlists that track has been added to there?

Or are you saying you want an option to see other playlists on the playlist page itself? Under the track title for example?

It’s fair enough request, and I can see how it might be useful if you’re using Roon more as a cross referencing tool for research purposes, but I expect it’s a pretty niche one. I guess no harm moving this post to feature requests and voting for it yourself.

(as a side note I notice that when you click though from an album track to a playlist you aren’t taken to the actual track, just the playlist itself. It would be nice if Roon could scroll down to the track in question, especially for long playlists)


That’s what it does already when you add individual tracks to playlists.
