So as you can see, the file is fully tagged with an APE 2.0 tag. Media Jukebox: Custom 2=Earnest, Stylish, Quirky, Restrained, Amiable/Good-NaturĮd, Refined/Mannered, Playful, Reverent, Reflective, Searching Media Jukebox: Custom 3=Pop/Rock, New Wave, Synth Pop Here is the same tag data as seen by TAG.exe (included with FLAC)ĭetails: 44100 Hz Stereo, 910 kbps, playtime 03:39 Media Jukebox: Custom 2: Earnest, Stylish, Quirky, Restrained, Amiable/Good-Natured, Refined/Mannered, Playful, Reverent, Reflective, Searching Media Jukebox: Custom 3: Pop/Rock, New Wave, Synth Pop Here is the tag as defined by Media Center: The Monkey's Audio app is limited to viewing ID3 tags only. It is recommended to tag APE files with APE20 tags and not ID3. Checked in Monkey's Audio 3.97 and it shows no tag. I picked a song in Media Center that was fully tagged. APE 2.0 doesn't appear be supported completely by this popup window. I believe the tag popup only supports ID3 tags. The popup window shows file information but not tag data. The files, as tagged by JRiver's Media Center, do not show tags with the popup window. Thanks, I'm familiar with the popup info. ![]() Vendor string: reference libFLAC 1.1.0 20030126 Here's the metaflac output for one of the FLAC files converted from APE using DBPoweramp:Ĭ:\Program Files\FLAC>metaflac -list test3.flac Nothing is coming across from the APE tag to the FLAC tags. The APE files I'm using are tagged with Media Center and have most fields populated with data. I've tried both ON and OFF for "Preserve ID Tags". I'm not even getting basic tag info (title, artist, album, year. May not be as slick a solution but its reliable.It doesn't appear to be working however. Good news is if you do switch over, you still have your jriver license to fall back on. Not much different than a crude apple (roon) vs microsoft (jriver) comparison.īest of luck in getting a solution. The upside of roon, is the ui and experience. Documentation? Uh… no.įor the most part, jriver can do everything that roon can for a fraction of the price. Roon, you just have the good folks in this forum that step up. Jriver’s support is just as atrocious (maybe worse when you consider the attitude of their leader) but at least they have a bunch of unorganized written documentation from which to start. Hopefully that wait doesnt impact your listening (as it didnt in my case) Mine wasnt a deal breaker as yours is but i learned that if you need support help, unless you scream really loud or have an easy problem, be willing to wait. I had an open answer for almost 4 months with them and never got an answer and why, i left back for jriver. Dont hold your breath hearing from support, though. You will need someone with a lot more indepth knowledge of roon or someone from support to answer this question. But, in your case, they would be good only on the day they were imported since it is searching via time (which will change as soon as you hit play) which i dont know if that can be done in roon. I created my playlists in jriver, exported them and put them in the upper folder of my music and roon would find them. I, too, came over from jriver but had my music sorted not by time but by type. I get what you want to do but I am not sure you can do it with roon. How does one achieve the type of playback I want? This is a deal-breaker for me. That defeats the purpose all the work I did categorizing the music. If I focus on the genre “jazz” it seems to include any album that has a track with the genre “jazz”. I’ve looked into the focus feature but it appears to be album centric. We’d do the same with other genres as well with the time based stuff based on how often we’d play that list and how much we had. This might be everything in the 3 month playlist and the new stuff playlist with the genre “jazz” and not the genre “vocal”. I would then create, for example, a Jazz non-vocal play list. There was also a playlist of music added in the last two weeks that hadn’t been played in the last two days. ![]() These playlists were global in nature in that the only criteria was when it was last played. For example, I have multiple time based playlists like the following: We like to listen to everything so we were building smart playlists in Media Center to do that. Our library is 950 albums with nearly 11,000 tracks. Most of my questions are around doing playback the way we like. Been hearing so much about Roon that I thought I think about switching over. Pretty much have everything the way we like it. We’ve been using JRiver Media Center for years. Not so much a problem but more of a “How do I?”
