Yes I'm using an Intel NUC7i3BNH for the core. I'm using Linux Mint, rather than ROCK because with ROCK that is all you can do on the NUC. I'm moving away from using Vortexbox on an old Dell server machine, mainly because the NUC uses far less energy than the big Dell server.

I am going to run both Roon Core and Plex media server on the NUC, as I do on the Vortexbox, so to maintain the same functionality as the Vortexbox server I installed Linux Mint 20 with the xfce desktop. I have also installed nomachine remote desktop on the NUC so I can run the NUC headless and carry out backups over the network.

Ah right. I do similar but with windows10. Run various apps including Plex and virtual machines.

Well, what can I say...... well done Roon. Must have listened to the 1000’s of complaints, including my gripes to the support team.

Let’s see if it’s actually improved.... now everything has been updated.

Thanks for the heads up, the update is installing as we speak so hopefully will resolve this issue.

Well, I thought I would give you a bit of an early update, after using Roon for most of day since the 1.8 Patch download this morning.

All appears to be back to normal regarding finding various endpoints and zones. (Not one single hitch).

Additionally, I like they have reinstated some of the earlier functions of the previous version, which makes the whole affair much more enjoyable to use.

I have a selection of different Dacs/endpoints (switchable) and instantly connects to the chosen device without issue. Even NAS files appear to load faster.

So, there you have it. Happier than I was yesterday. The tech boys at Roon must have worked hard to get this fixed.

Yesterday I was going to give up my lifetime subscription...but perhaps now I will persevere

How does one 'give up' a lifetime subscription?

Yer chuck $400 down the plughole and don't use Roon anymore

And maybe use Jriver!!!!!!

It was said in jest
