Still getting exactly the same problem in that Roon Radio will not work on the Classical Catalogue/Library but is fine on Rock etc. At the end of a classical album after searching for 20 seconds or so I get Unexpected Error: Limiting Roon Radio to Library and if I play an album using Roon Radio I get Roon Radio; Nothing Similar to Play!. As I said before it is almost as if something is blocking the classical catalogue. I have tried rebooting the Core and signing in and out of Qobuz but the problem remains. Everything else is absolutely fine. I have never previously experienced this issue.
Can you provide some examples (including screenshots) of albums that you’re experiencing this with? Is this occurring with every classical album or only certain ones?
I will try later but it is every single classical album I have tested including very mainstream stuff which you would not expect difficulty with. Every other genre is working fine.
@dylan - I’ve just tried this using the Vivaldi: Teatro alla moda album as a seed. When the album finishes, I get a “Coming up in 0:00 seconds” pop-up (for a Violin Concerto), but the track never starts playing…
If you kickstart the popup (click the thumbs-up, and then click the Play button), does it then start Roon Radio, and does this then continue as expected? It seems to do that here (I’m now into my second multi-part concerto).
I’m having the same difficulties with Roon Radio today. I started my day like most, selecting some classical music while I work (Keith Jarrett Handel: Suites For Keyboard - local files), expecting the music to flow as usual. I noticed the queue was limited to local files and wasn’t automatically playing the next tracks. I rebooted, signed out/into Qobuz, toggled the Roon Radio options to no avail. I manually added a Qobuz track to the queue and it played as expected. The queue still says it is limited to local library though and isn’t selecting any Qobuz tracks on its own. I haven’t tried other genres yet.
I’m running Roon 1.6 (build 416) on a Windows 7 64-bit OS to a PS Audio Directstream DAC via their Bridge II.
Has this been addressed by the roon staff? I can no longer use radio for classical due to constant “nothing similar to play” or “limited to radio” messages. This is true for both qobuz and tidal.
Thanks Ged. I had posted my comment to a related thread that Dylan had not responded too. They moved my comment so now I see they are aware and working on it…thanks again
Same here the past few days. After playing Qobuz, I see “Roon Radio limited to library”. I logged in and out of all streaming services and restarted Roon. Still having issues. All “play Roon Radio” options are turned on.
@dylan, something odd - I went to the Qobuz/New Releases screen, and when I chose the Classical genre, then Roon flashed up the “limiting Roon Radio to Local” message. It’s done this a couple of times, but it’s not repeatable, just happens occasionally…
Trevor, I am having the same issue, and it’s not just at the end of a classical album. If I start Radio based on a classical artist (Academy of Ancient Music, e.g.) after about 20 seconds I get exactly the same behavior. And it’s happening with Tidal as well as Qobuz. Seems like the classical music selection algorithm might have gotten corrupted/broken somehow? It has alway worked just fine until a few days ago, and is only a problem with classical music (not rock or jazz).
