· The Windows Roon app crashes when certain characters are pasted into its search bar. I often use AI to find certain tracks, and when I copy paste directly without filtering out certain characters/icons, instead of the search ignoring them it actually crashes.
eg if you copy/paste this into the roon search the app just dies.

Hopefully the search can be made to at least not crash when it sees characters, I assume one being this headphone icon.
Thank you. I have uploaded the recording now to the media storage, however in my windows event viewer i see no associated events at this time of the crash. But for me at least reproducing is as easy as in the recording, copy paste directly from my post above, and those special characters causes the app to hard crash it seems.
Thank you for the update. I was able to replicate the issue on my end, and we’ve discussed this with our senior QA and development teams. The team is investigating some possibilities here and, as soon as that investigation is complete, we’ll be sure to follow up ASAP.
You have our apologies for the trouble here, and we’ve greatly appreciated your patience as we continue investigating this tricky issue. We’ll be in touch as soon as we can.
I wanted to touch base with some good news, which is that our technical team has been able to reproduce this behavior and we’ve opened up a bug report with our developers.
While I can’t say for certain when this bug will be fixed, getting things reproduced in-house is a critical first step, and I will keep this thread up to date as the team passes along feedback and work begins to get this resolved.
