Hi Guys - When searching for artist Kelly Clarkson from within Roon and searching for her from within the native TIDAL desktop application the results are different.
Example:
Within Roon - There is one version of her new album titled Piece By Piece
Within TIDAL app - There are two versions of the album Piece By Piece (one is the deluxe version).
Question:
Is there a reason some releases are excluded in Roon or is this just something the needs to be looked into or something else entirely?
This is still an issue. I just searched for Nicki Minaj albums from within Roon and within the TIDAL desktop app and the results are different by about 14 albums.
Today the Steep Canyon Rangers new CD titled āRadioā was released. I first did a Roon search and it found just 2 tracks from this album on Tidal. Next I went to the Tidal app on my Mac and it found the full album which is now playing. Then I went to Sonos where I also have Tidal and Spotify installed. A Sonos search found the full album on both Tidal and Spotify and it successfully played. So why the difference? Iāve noticed this many times before with new releases and have only found partial parts of new albums on Roon when the full album is on Tidalās app. Eventually the full album will appear in Roon.
@VidarDK, I noticed that too and a little bummed the new Motƶrhead is on TIDAL/Roon yet. I really hope this get addressed very soon by the Roon devs, if not already as a top priority.
I filed a similar issue and mike from Roon said they found the problem and should be fixed very soon. Like today or tomorrow.
At first I found one album that was missing from Roon but then I compared new releases on Tidal vs Roon and found over 10 missing albums from the last two weeks. So not sure how big this issue really is but hope their fix plugs all the holes.
Having the same problem with George Harrisonās Somewhere in England. Through Roon the songs are āunavailableā, but through Tidal on my IPad I can play them. It also has a different cover. How come?
I have problems with search results when I compare TIDAL and Roon. The results differ quite a bit. How come? I just tested it with the song āI Think Itās Going to Rain Todayā.
Please point me to the explanation of how Roon determines which titles of Tidal to display. This isnt about new releases. I get different search results -more albums/versions from Tidal but Roon seems to consolidate/condense the Tidal catalog.
Weāre a year later now, but the issue still exists. āA Moon Shaped Poolā is available in Tidal but doesnāt show up in Roon.
This is not a Tidal thing, because Iām also using another audio player that doesnāt have this problem.
The search results remain quite different. The workaround Iām using is to save the album song from Tidal on my Iphone and when I sync Tidal on Roon the album appears.
Hi - Iām experiencing the same issue as mentioned in the above thread but its now 9/4/17 and Iām hoping this issue has / can be resolved.
When looking in Roon under Lou Reed, I do not see all the albums that TIDAL has for Lou Reed. When I go to TIDAL I see more albums - such as āNew Yorkā , āTransformerā and āMagic and Lossā but they do not appear in Roon when looking at TIDAL.
Any help understanding how to display all albums in Roon for TIDAL would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
When Iām viewing the artist Lou Reed, i see the 3 albums that you are referencing. Do you currently have these albums ripped in your library? If so, the Tidal Versions wonāt show in the Tidal section, below the albums already in your library.
If you have New York already in the library, then select it and then click the 3 dots icon and select Go to Tidal Version, if you want it.
First Thank You so much for getting back with me. Yes it does help.
I think I did not fully understanding how TIDAL and Roon work together (Iām a new user to Roon) - I didnāt realize that Roon would hide the same TIDAL albums if Roon sees the same album in local Library. I thought it showed all version available in local library as well as all TIDAL albums on TIDAL library. So I understand now and will let you know if I donāt see all the albums in the way you described.
Background info - Iām still getting fully setup (just got Roon last week) and Iām in process of re-ripping my CDās into FLAC including those Lou Reed albums. Roon is currently seeing my old lossy library which was from iTunes and the one that I used for mobile - which I gave Roon access to when I installed it but never planed on using it - That is why I was trying to find / listen to the lossless version on TIDAL even though I had a lossy versions on another database. So I see lossy library differently than I do lossless library. Also my rip on some CDās have errors and not good to listen to but yet still showing in library so I need to clean those up too and delete those!
Thanks again for your help! Iāll keep you posted if I see anything strange.
