does anyone know a way to manually update Roon album list as when I add albums via Qobuz/Tidal it can take days for Roon’s app to show new additions?

Don’t use Roon, but can’t you do a rescan of your library?

I can see how to scan a local library but not how to quickly update the streaming services’ lists

If you go into the relevant service via Settings/Services there is a sync option - that might speed it up

Sorted :grinning:

For some reason Tidal had logged out, i mostly use Qobuz and hadn’t realised!

Roon search is a joke at the moment. What a decision to move it to cloud providers only.

Reinstalled LMS with the Material Skin and a plugin I hadn’t come across before - called ‘Music and Artist Information’

It’s making Roon look like a scat orgy in a clown abattoir

Forum strapline etc etc

At the risk of opening a can of worms, reinstalled on what, please?

Just in a Docker on my NAS. It’s been on doing not much at all - just serving an SBR for internet radio duties but I had it rescan my full music library with plugins:
Qobuz
online music integration
Music and Artist Information
Material skin (browsing from a laptop mainly)

Wow, what a bunch of cunts

Having issues with Roon crashing/not connecting so emailed them (as the forum account associated with my subscription is banned) got a response they don’t provide email support with a link to the online support form

Complete the online form which now just creates a post on the forum. Get an email that it is denied because my account is banned. So I sign up to the community using different email and do the form again using my subscription account in the details.

Thread gets posted in the support section and shortly after deleted and my new account banned.

roon - banned users are not allowed to access the forum
me - ok can I log the ticket by email
roon - no we only provide support via the forum
me - how do I get support for my problem then
roon - as a banned user you cannot access the forum
me - ok can you cancel my subscription and refund the outstanding as Roon doesn’t currently work
roon - no we don’t offer refunds

Another “feature” of their utterly shit support model.

Just create an account with a vpn.

don’t think that would make a difference, the guy couldn’t find my roon server to enable diagnostics as it wasn’t associated with my forum account and asked me to dump the logs and upload them manually

Told him it is running under my original roon account, shortly after that it was deleted and banned

The same thing will just happen again the moment they ask for logs

Tell the fucking pricks you’re paying for a service and you expect them to deliver it.

suspect they’ll be ignoring my emails from now on

I’m sure they feel great for pwning you, but yes, hi fi nerds talk amongst themselves and it’s really not a good advert.

At the very least they owe you a pro rata refund.
