[Official Release] ROSE ONE Global Launch

@fotoklasika

We have confirmed the details regarding your DLNA playback inquiry. The fix has been applied and will be included in the next version release.

Additionally, regarding the white noise issue, does it occur only when playing Tidal tracks? Does it happen when playing via RoseTube or your local music files as well?

Still waiting your response to my two previous posts…

i found the problem. Its not about the ā€œTidalā€ā€¦Everything with 16bit audio has white noise on background. From 24bit audio is perfect:)

@Rose_love @ROSEHAN @ROSELOA

First of all, I’m very pleased that the >10,000-track issue was resolved in v1.0.34.3.

However after several weeks I had expected to see some more progress on the remaining local search and library issues that I have reported.

Several of these issues are still reproducible, including:

  • Exact track-title matches are not always prioritised correctly.
  • Equivalent search terms such as ā€œDark & Longā€ and ā€œDark And Longā€ can produce very different results.
  • Track Artist , Album Artist and Various Artists metadata still appear to be handled inconsistently.

I have now found another very clear example of the metadata issue.

When I search for Steely Dan , Rose One correctly finds Steely Dan tracks and the artist Steely Dan. However, when I select the artist Steely Dan , the resulting artist page contains many tracks from compilation albums where Album Artist = Various Artists .

The actual Steely Dan albums are also present, but they are mixed with tracks from Various Artists compilations.

I would expect an artist page to primarily represent albums where Album Artist = Steely Dan , while compilation appearances could be shown separately.

This seems to reinforce my earlier observation that Rose One does not always make the correct distinction between Track Artist and Album Artist when constructing the library and artist views.

I fully understand that some of these issues may require more fundamental changes than the >10,000-track problem and therefore may take longer to resolve. What I am missing at the moment, however, is some indication of their development status.

Could ROSE please provide an update on the remaining search and metadata issues?

In particular, it would be very helpful to know:

  • Which of these issues have been reproduced by the development team?
  • Which have been confirmed as bugs?
  • Which are currently being worked on?
  • Are improvements to search ranking and metadata handling planned for an upcoming Rose One release?

I am continuing to test Rose One because I think it has a lot of potential. Search and library navigation, however, are core functions of a music server, especially for users with large local libraries. I therefore hope these remaining issues will receive appropriate priority.

Thanks in advance.

I would like to provide answers to your questions.

  1. Search Result Accuracy

Regarding the issue where similar search terms such as ā€œDark & Longā€ and ā€œDark And Longā€ produce significantly different search results, our development team is aware that this is an area that needs improvement.

We have reviewed possible solutions, but since this issue is related to the search logic, it is not something that can be resolved with a simple modification. Further development and improvements are required, so we expect that it may take some time to address.

  1. Track Artist / Album Artist Issue

Regarding the inconsistent handling of Track Artist, Album Artist, and Various Artists metadata, our development team is currently working on improvements.

  1. Bug Confirmation and Development Status

Rather than providing individual updates on whether each reported issue has been reproduced or confirmed as a bug, we provide information about fixes and improvements through the release notes when a new update is released.

Therefore, when future Rose One updates are released, please refer to the release notes for details regarding the issues that have been fixed or improved.

Thank you for continuing to provide us with detailed test results and feedback. We will continue working to improve the search and library functions in Rose One.

Thanks @ROSEHAN for your feedback.

With fewer than 10,000 tracks on my hard drive, I’m not a heavy data user, and waiting 10 to 15 minutes for the album to appear isn’t the end of the world—even if it is a bit of a nuisance.

But I know a lot of people—since I’m the administrator of forum-hifi.fr, the largest hi-fi forum in France—who have 10 or even 100 times as many music files, and if we follow the same logic, their drives shouldn’t appear for 30 minutes or an hour.

Thank you.
