System architecture comments: a tale of 3 systems

@Francois_De_Heel, you’ve done a disingenuous thing here – I clicked on your link and just looked at them.

This one was solved by removing a powerline network adapter that was causing the network to be flakey.

This one and the one split off it have zero feedback. Probably a network issue.

This one is about the playback stopping in the middle of the track and then moving on to the next track (most likely a network issue). The logs would show why the tracks were skipped.

This one is complaining that when the user manually skips the track by hitting the “next track” button, they want the Roon Radio questions to not pop up.

etc… etc… none of this has to do with @jim_hamilton’s question.

Even in your thread, the log posted shows the system getting I/O errors, most likely a failing drive or network that lost connection. You also refer to someone having TIDAL tracks being skipped, but the problem goes away when they use a VPN from their native Brazil to the US. That would make TIDAL deliver content to them via their US servers, and not their Brazilian servers. Sounds like the TIDAL servers in Brazil are having issues getting content to listeners (their network probably).

Most of the issues users have with “skips” in Roon has to do with either networking (LAN and/or WAN) not being able to keep up, or under-spec’d hardware.
