Wonder what's in Release 175?

Nothing really of importance. We are always tweaking it here and there.

An example of performance improvement:

WINS/NetBIOS queries resolve after DNS queries now. The result is a tiny speed up for DNS lookups. Nothing anybody will notice, but given that you rarely resolve local SMB mounts and you usually do resolve Roon/TIDAL/Qobuz DNS addresses, this is the right thing to do for a slightly snappier experience. VERY VERY slightly snappier.

An example of a bug fix:

On a machine that was all properly set up and booted properly,

  1. if you removed link power from the end of an ethernet cable plugged into a switch,
  2. but left it plugged into the Roon OS machine,
  3. in some not easily predictable circumstances,

the console failed to update its text to show that there was no network plugged in

Once again, not worthy of note.
