the_bat Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Why, oh why, oh why have they put the "Popular" section above the "Albums in my Library" section in Overview? I now have to scroll down to get to play something that I liked enough to buy rather than something that other people liked. There's lots go good and clever stuff in there but some of the sign decisions make the simple job of playing your music harder. The Computer Audiophile 1 Link to comment

Popular Post The Computer Audiophile Posted February 10, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2021 The more I use Roon 1.8, the more I think the future of applications is modularity. Roon is really powerful, but for one team to decide how thousands of people experience their music collections is a recipe for disaster. There's no way a single interface can please everyone. The best way I see is to allow consumers the ability to enable/disable modules within the app and rearrange where the modules are displayed. In a way, it's like a digital audio workstation. I can customize Logic Pro and its windows endlessly to my liking. It would be great to enable this for Roon. k6davis, goodsource, asiufy and 3 others 3 1 2 Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

As more features are added it can be a bash to the ego when people want new bits bits hidden / removed! I respect an "all in" version. The "can I hide xyz" involves some Dev time.

That's the one, I have it set to yes and on my desktop it works well, if I make the window large enough it appears, if the window is smaller, it is under the same menu button it was before.

cjf Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Ill throw in my gripes as well. First is that the update was forced on me. I specifically leave the option to not update automatically turned off on both the Core and my mobile phone App. Earlier today I picked up my phone to change the Playlist and I noticed the new Roon Icon staring at me. 🤬 Then once I opened the App on my phone it wouldn't connect to the Core anymore until I updated the Core also.🤬 OK..so I update the Core and it starts working....for about an hour. Then as I sit here typing this I see another update showing up on the phone saying the Core needs another update. OK I click update because what choice do I have at this point. NOW after that last update a few mins ago the remote can't find the Core at all anymore. Its been that way for 15mins now. 🤬🤬 MotherF$#=er! Guess I'll be watching TV tonight instead. This is exactly the kind of shit that rubs me raw every time with these damn ham fisted forced updates. These guys don't even give the customer a chance to wait a few days to sit back and watch any potential carnage occur from the sidelines before diving right in. Were all just Beta testers apparently. k6davis 1 My Audio System -Last Updated May 20 2021 Link to comment
cjf Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Update, After blowing off the dust and hooking up a monitor keyboard/mouse to the Core 🤬 I was greeted with an OpenGL Error and a crashed Roon Core App. I had to clear the error and then proceeded to drop kick the Core (ie..reboot) and now it all seems to be working again.

One and a half Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 22 hours ago, firedog said: 2. Search/Library: EXTREMELY slow for me. Did a search for "Abbey Road" and it took 70 seconds. Literally. Same thing when I open the program and have to wait for all of the main page to appear. Edit: From what I read at the Roon forum, this may be due to severe overload on their servers b/c everyone is downloading and using the new program. So maybe it will clear up on it's own. The slowness of search cleared up a few hours after conversion to 1.8. Now the next day, search is back to 'normal for Roon' speed. AS Profile Equipment List Say NO to MQA Link to comment
