I’ve also experienced the Qobuz song stalling issue and it seems like the last update with Roon fixed that. That was maddening. I’m also in the Roon QNAP update group. So after researching and worrying about if I’ll be able to continue using ROON after April 20 I bit the bullet and ordered a Nucleus One. I’m hoping that will not only solve the problem but improve my overall experience with ROON albeit it worked pretty good running the server on the qnap nas. I just hate that qnap let us down like this but I’ll continue to use the nas to store my music.
Roon Issues - Not able to play certain tracks
I have been running into this issue when Roon is in the radio mode where spontaneously it runs into a track it can’t play. It just sits there trying to play it.
When I go to that album and attempt to manually play that same track on Qobuz the result is the same - it won’t play. Plays other tracks from the albums just fine.
If I go back to Roon radio and skip that track the next song is played no issues.
No such problems with Tidal.
I have rebooted the Roon Nucleus One, rebooted my network, rebooted my DAC.
Even signed out of streaming services and signed back in. No bueno. This is in addition to it being sluggish and requiring an almost daily reboot to maintain sound quality and proper operating speed. Now this…
Anyone else with this problem?

I was not able to get a trial again, but no problem because Tidal said "welcome back" and my login and playlists were still accessible after exactly 3 years, which was nice! I have zero issues with Tidal, at least it has worked where Qobuz did not. But going back and forth on Sophie Zelmati -Free Now, with Jplay: Qobuz has more air, and grabs a little more high frequency information, whereas Tidal seems a little denser, has more body, or is more saturated. Her extra breathe seems a little better resolved with Qobuz to my ears on this track , but I can see where Tidal may be better on other brighter tracks. I don’t want to pay for both, especially since I am spinning many CD’s all of a sudden, so I’ll probably give it another month and once Qobuz is confirmed to be back on track I will cancel the Tidal.

@mclinnguy I will compare qobuz and tidal on that track. Will let you know. From my experience using both, Tidal sounds more open in my system. It could very well be the streamer. I’m using the network card in the Meitner dac. But I will compare and post my findings with both jplay and roon. |
