Show music file information when searching

Function RoseConnect
#1

Hello. When searching songs on RoseConnect Premium on iPad, it only shows {song name, artist, album, MQA tag}.
It would be very useful to add columns to show other file information, for example: duration, type, file size, bit rate, sample rate, path (if it’s local music on SSD).
That would make music browsing much more useful and allow to pick specific recordings more easily, instead of opening every version and manually checking one by one.
Thank you

Thanks, yeah I was considering using Roon for that purpose (I was using Audirvana before, which had similar functionality), but I moved the music to my Rose SSD => can Roon see it and include the music on the SSD in its database? That said, I REALLY like the Rose app and this improvement would make it that much better imho.

@ROSEHAN could you please let us know if this something being worked on?
Thanks!

@ROSEHAN sorry to bother again with this, would really be great to know if this is on your list or not. If not I might just switch back to Roon for library management, which would be a shame considering how well made your app is (and has improved over the past months!).
Thank you

When you play a song stored in your SSD on RoseConnect Premium on iPad, you can see the file information under Related content on the right.
Then, the song type, file size, bit rate, sample rate, and path are displayed.

Thank you

@ROSEHAN Hello! I was referring to the ability to see these info when doing the search itself, not when reading a specific song. All major music library providers provide these, and it allows to chose which version to play.
For example, when doing a Search, then selecting Tracks, this is what I’d like to see: new columns, with sort possibility by clicking on the headers

@bsauvage

It is difficult to add the sorting function as per your request.

Thank you

:frowning: oh no… thank you for having looked into it, very sad to see this… I hope that can be changed at some point when easier!
At the very least, even if no sorting, would adding the information in the table be possible? That would already make a big difference.

Thanks for your great suggestion - very good workaround when not using Roon.
Can Roon handle the part of the library that sits on the Rose’s SSD ?

@aswiss great, thank you for this. I’m definitely moving to Roon!

Thank you
