What is the Playlist Improver? How can I access it, and what does it improve?
In short, when you open a Roon playlist, Roon will scan the contents of the playlist and tell you exactly how many tracks can be upgraded.
After scanning, the improver can instantly remedy unavailable and duplicate tracks, or upgrade songs with higher-quality selections or the primary version in your library. You can approve and save changes to playlists of all sizes with just a few clicks or review and savor each suggestion individually.
You can review all the upgrade options by clicking the improve button found at the top of your playlist, under the playlist name and duration:

Upgrade Quality - Locates higher quality versions of tracks in your playlists by matching across your library and streaming services

When you select an option, Roon will highlight suggestions in the playlist.
Click each suggestion to toggle between Roon’s proposed improvement and what’s currently in the playlist.
