Description of Issue

Folks - I am getting what I assume is the same issue as a number of folks on this forum where Roon is randomly skipping tracks mid way through a song.

This has been working fine for a couple of years and thus assume there is something in a new Roon update that has caused the change ??

This seems to be happening on both Tidal and Qobuz streamed music.

I have tried lowering the streaming quality to no avail.

I have also tried logging off services, power cycling the machine and logging back on to no avail.

Welcome any other guidance please as else this is becoming pretty unusable

Thanks
Ankur

I have the same issue, also on 1.8 (898), running on Intel NUC5i5RYH 1.6Ghz i5 8GB RAM - 120GB SSD.

Streaming via Tidal into Primare NP5 over wireless. Wireless network is UniFi.

Never noticed this before.

Me too, I’m having similar problem, only started today, very annoying

I’d be looking at your wi-fi setup as a first port of call. Roon doesn’t recommend connecting the core via wi-fi and for good reason.

Noted and appreciate the input however given its been working great for the last 2+ years with all the same HW I am going to assume something is amiss with recent SW updates …

Sure, you can wait and see if the next update improves things, or you can try running a cable (even temporarily) and ascertain whether it’s a network bandwidth issue…

Yeah - need to go figure out a USB doc as this laptop does not have an ethernet port :man_facepalming:

You could try an inexpensive USB → ethernet adapter.
