Roon

Thanks....but I’ve tried saving every available version of certain albums, one after another, and none of them is saved--even though a Roon message says they are. The funny thing is that some albums are saved with no problems and others just won’t save. As I mentioned, others have reported the same issue if you look at the Roon forum.

very odd, might double check your networking integrity... computers like the roon core aren’t that smart... if it says it has done something, it has... wouldn’t send a false confirmation... i was getting alot of glitchy nonsense like this, and then i moved the core machine into the same room as the endpoint, did not run it over a distant set of house wired network lan nodes, and it all sorted out ....

@brownsf

if you didn’t realize it already, roon will show you all available ’versions’ of any album where they may come from different streamed or stored sources, and different resolutions available...

so take album x - let's say steely dan's ’aja’... if you have tidal and qobuz, and a ripped file in flac, if you pull up the album on roon there will be a ’versions’ button, click that, and it will show you at least 6-7 versions of 'aja' you have available to you:

aja - flac ripped on local drive/nas

aja - tidal redbook 44/16

aja - tidal h-r 192/24 mqa

aja - qobuz redbook 44/16

aja - qubuz hi res 96/24

and so on... i just made up this example above to illustrate the point

key is -- when you ask roon to ’save’ the album, it saves the specific version you are playing... so you need to specify which one you want... then -- other versions are NOT saved... follow?

hope that helps and clarifies...

i held out for a long time but bit the bullet paid for the lifetime... (xmas gift from s.o. LOL)... it was a pain to set up, core machine switches end points and all, but it is really excellent, and makes the overall experience and sound nicer...
