xthursdayx Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) FYI: I just updated my Roon Core Docker container to 1.8 via the Roon app running on my MacBook with no problems at all. Everything looks great! Cheers! Edited February 10, 2021 by xthursdayx 2 Quote Link to comment

meep Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 So as someone who's just finishing up a trial, it looks like I missed all the pain. For me, it was a very straightforward initial setup ad the update was smoothness itself. The 1.8 UI, on first impressions, looks like a vast improvement on what went before which was somewhat clunky and tricky to navigate (on desktop). Now, my only decision is Qobuz or Tidal. (I'm leaning towards the former). 1 Quote Link to comment
garethsnaim Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 I did a new install of roon on unraid using this docker, getting major issues. It will run for a while then becomes unstable and seems to crash or at least cannot be seen on the network the docker is running. If I restart it, it comes back but the squeezebox devices on the network can no longer be found until I restart them, then it works again for a while before the cycle restarts. I see lots of this in the logs has mp3float: 1, aac_fixed: 0 Running Not responding Error Initializing Started Not responding aac_fixed decoder found, checking libavcodec version... has mp3float: 1, aac_fixed: 0 Running Not responding Error Not responding Initializing Started aac_fixed decoder found, checking libavcodec version... has mp3float: 1, aac_fixed: 0 Running Not responding [0;37;1m[0;0m00:00:00.002 [0;31mWarn: get lock file path: /tmp/.rnsgem0-[0;0m [0;37;1m[0;0m00:00:00.114 [0;36mTrace: [childprocess] using unix child process[0;0m Initializing Started aac_fixed decoder found, checking libavcodec version... has mp3float: 1, aac_fixed: 0 Running Not responding Error Quote Link to comment

My suggestion is to post a new issue on steefdebruijn's github repo: https://github.com/steefdebruijn/docker-roonserver Quote Link to comment

The template by default provides a single entry for your music directory. I went ahead and entered one of my music directories, and then later I tried to add another directory using the main Roon interface (i.e., in the settings, storage area of Roon Remote). Needless to say, it didn't work after numerous attempts. After searching a bit I learned that docker containers can't really see your host file system, unless you map (mount?) particular directories. This is done through the aforementioned template, by selecting "Add another Path, Port, Variable, Label or Device," and then you just follow the formatting example established for the first music directory you set up. Hey folks, I just tried to add a second music folder following this approach and got an error message indicating a duplicate mount directory. Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment

Here is what mine looks like just for reference: Quote Link to comment
xthursdayx Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Yeah, a pic of your settings would help. If you're getting an error message indicating a duplicate mount directory it's likely that you're using the same mount point aka container path for the two different host directories.

mikela Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Here are my settings without adding the additional path: I tried to add another path: /mnt/user/music (Blu-ray)/ to the Container Path: /music I just noticed that my share is actually "Music (Blu-ray) and now I can't remember if I used the lower case in my attempt.

rutherford Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 Mapping two locations to /music is probably the issues. Just map to another folder. For instance: 1. music 2/ > /music 2. music (Blu-ray)/ > /music2 Then, in Roon, simply point it at BOTH /music and /music2 1 1 Quote Link to comment

steve1977 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Does it work for you to automatically pick up newly added music? This doesn't seem to work for me without manually selecting "force rescan". Quote Link to comment
xrqp Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) I ran my core in Windows 10 for a year, then I created a backup lately. Now I installed this container and assigned it as the core, then tried to restore that backup (when it asked me to sign in, I click "restore backup"). But the restoration of the backup fails. Can I do this? Are there any tricks? Edited February 23, 2021 by xrqp Quote Link to comment

Can I do this? Are there any tricks? I haven't had any problems restoring backup using this image Docker image/template combo, but that was restoring from the same setup (this Docker container running Roon Core on my UNRAID server). I'm not sure if there are any issues restoring backups across operating systems, but that might be a question for the Roon forums. However, if you find that it's an issue with permissions or anything associated with either my UNRAID DockerMan template, or Steef's original Docker image, I'll be happy to try to help sort it out. In either case, you'll need to include any error logs you have from the container when you try to restore your backup (if any exist, that is).

xrqp Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) Subject: Updating I read most containers (BinHex or LinuxIO) say do not update thru the app, but instead update through the Docker tab in Unraid where at the bottom is a button to Update. But I think you all say, this container is different and I can update thru the app (in other words, when it nags to update, I can click "update all" on the Roon remote control app on ipad). Is this correct? I now have Roon Remote on my ipad (v1.8 build 756) and on my win10 (v1.8 build 763). And already it is nagging me to update every time I start the app, and I cannot figure out what build number it is trying to update to. I am scared to update generally, and even more so while it is building library. Edited February 25, 2021 by xrqp Quote Link to comment

Yes, you can update the Roon running in this container via the app. I think the fact that it is nagging you to update every time you start the app is just coincidental - Roon has released multiple builds over the last few days since 1.8 came out in order to fix issues that were identified after launch. Is it literally every time you restart you app, or is it just that you've had to update a few times over the last week? Edited February 25, 2021 by xthursdayx Quote Link to comment
Kendel Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 with latest Roon release (1.8 build 764), I tried letting Roon perform its auto-update. I then Stopped the Docker Container and restarted it. My computer app then gave me the "waiting for the Roon core" message and I had to go to select a different one (which was the updated version). When I selected it, it was like a fresh install with no library, missing settings, no audio devices configured etc. Last time for (1.8 build 763) just a few days ago I just tried the update from within the app but with the same results. Since build 763/764 were only a couple days apart I hadn't backed up my library to try to reload it, but I know from a previous update I lost my library anyways and the backup didn't work. It's really a hassle to redo settings, etc. everytime there's a patch to Roon. Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong that a patched Roon doesn't see the newly patched Roon core?? I haven't revised any of the docker settings so I'm confused. Thanks, Kendel Quote Link to comment

I haven't run into that problem with any of the recent updates, and no one else has mentioned it recently, so hopefully it's a simple configuration problem. Quote Link to comment

It was, but that was when I had the wrong paths (everything went to RAM only) and it locked up and crashed, never really doing a build. Now that I fixed it, I do not see the nags yet. After my library and analysis is done, I will do a backup, then try update, and report back here. Quote Link to comment
