sorry going south in my background means not going well. yeah we are aligned on the potential (and probably likely) flaw.

thank you @rutherford i am listening.  My worry is once i get roon ripping running the music lookup goes south with some of the odd listening tastes i have and i go back to manual apps... (but anyhow i learnt more about docker on the journey so far, with roon playing in the background) so i tend to think you are onto something.

whats the problem with the Roon CD Ripping extension? do you have experience of it or followed threads on it, i thought id give it a drive and find for myself, but glad to hear reviews. (dbpoweramp is what im replacing)

thank you @rutherford i have been backing up my CDs with other means for years. now im bought into Roon i want to rip direct into the Roon collection/db which its CD ripper tool will do just fine, thats if my Unraid capability permits it.

You can go directly to the correct support thread for your docker by clicking on its icon in your Unraid webUI and selecting Support

thank you for the tip. I have previously done this and went through the whole thing, no-one has touched this topic so far.  I will reply on that thread with a link to this post.

Im trying to get the Roon CD Ripper extension but struggling to find the optical drive on my Unraid host machine where the Roon-Server docker is running well. (the roon extension manger is on a Unriad hosted VM (same host))

 

My research has indicated i need to use the --device docker run option in the Extra Parameters section of the Unraid roon-server docker configuration. So virtually connecting the drive to the Roon Server direct.

 

The options I tried that take and still let the roon-server docker run are:

--device '/dev/sr0':'/dev/dvd':'r'

--device '/dev/sr0':'/dev/cdrom':'r'

--device /dev/sr0

--device /dev/sr0 --device /dev/sg3

--device /dev/sr0 --device /dev/cdrom

you will get the jist, i have tried a few others that fail too.

 

The CD Ripper extension stalls at the setup stage of configuring the drive asking for a CD to be inserted.

 

ever hopeful for some ideas and direction.
