Open Beta Testing of new TIDAL and QOBUZ implementation, feedback wanted

[rost21A]

Hello together
I am very happy that Qobuz is integrated into Volumio. But it would certainly make sense to integrate the Qobuz-Connect. Some people like it better.
I myself prefer the integration in Volumio. I find it pleasant when everything is housed under a GUI. Access to your own flacs and internet radio stations, all the same.
I think both are justified.

Hello together
I have noticed that adding albums to my own favorites on the mobile phone and on the tablet in Qobuz sometimes does not work.
It does not work in the tile view.
It works in the list view.
See pictures.

On the PC, however, it seems to work in both views.

TIDAL Connect please!

[der.spe]

Agree, Tidal Connect would be a great feature.

[martinwtaylor]

Qobuz Connect would be excellent!

Regarding TIDAL Connect we’re already contacting our technical representative @TIDAL
See here:

Adding Tidal Connect

Hi, thanks for sharing your feature request. We are currently working on this topic so you’ll see updates on this for sure on the future. Keep in mind that part of the process is obtaining commercial authorization from Tidal itself so a valid timeline cannot be given at this time. What’s sure is that as soon as we get the paper work done we’ll start the implementation of Tidal Connect. Please take a look at the beta version of Tidal and give us your personal feedback while waiting for Tidal C…

If QOBUZ Connect is possible (from our documentation QOBUZ Connect is actually the OAUTH implementation, not the “spotify-connect-like-thingy”).

I also have the playlist content > 50 Qobuz problem. 2.834 makes no difference.

Another vote for Qobuz connect.

Hello guys,

We are currently testing an update with fixes for the Qobuz search limited to 50 items, MQA playback and others. Just a couple of days and we’ll release it.

Thanks for testing and reporting, we really appreciate that!

Hello
Thank you very much for your very good work!
I noticed that the HighRes icons are partially displayed in Volumio, but there are none.

Great to hear.

Will these changes be in a client side Volumio update in the dev channel, or server side (no update needed) or a bit of both ?

It’s not clear how much is done locally on the device and how much in the cloud back end with My Volumio…

[volumio]

A bit of both… Those udpates require both server side code and client side code…

[DBMandrake]

Is there a changelog somewhere for the development versions that goes into a bit more detail about what is changing in each version other than the built in changelog in the UI?

I just checked my system and it updated to V2.846 however the changelog in the UI was a very vague “Improvements to Tidal and Qobuz” or similar. Without knowing what issues those changes might be focusing on it’s hard to know where to concentrate testing and also not waste time testing issues that are not yet addressed.

Well, well, well…
2.846 MQA playback on 192kHz unfolding rate seems to be… Ok At least with next albums :
The Commodores - Machine Gun
Muddy Waters - Folk Singer

[totyc]

Eric Clapton - Slowhand MQA 96kHz okay

But:

1. Not available tracks still shown in TIDAL. And not playable tracks hangs up playback queue ( Chris Botti - Live in Boston)
2. Still missing some tracks from play lists ( It’s Party Time! - TIDAL Masters)

I updated to 2.846 and I have big troubles with Qobuz. The sound is distorted and jerky. No problem with the local music on my Nas

Genre selection in Qobuz

The feature I miss most in the Volumio integration of Qobuz is the genre selesction when I am browsing new releases or other curated selections. The genre selection works with the Qobus integrations in Audirvana or the mconnect.app.

Or am I just too blind or dumb to notice this feature in Volumio?

Hi,
I have installed 2.834, created the file with touch.
I am on latest qobuz imolementation or I need to do something else?
Until now I like it… When login in qobuz from sources an internet explorer window opened from qobuz. Com and logged in. Not like before directly from application… Is ok?
For ex when I open the qobuz sources I want to have the same layout as in qobuz app or at least to see the cover art… Near text…

I like when I Click aan album the old queqe is replaced with new album :).
Thanks

[Lintbf]

It will be great to hav ethe possibility to filter the qobuz Playlist like on qobuz app. When I click now the qobuz Playlist I see some Playlist in random order. Is there any posibikity to filter?

I have observed that the songs are stopped… In order to start the music again I need to press next song and play…
I am on latest 2.846… Also in 2.834 same behavior… Randomly the song is stopped… The song timer is continued… I use jack output… To an amplifier
Anyone observed this?
Thanks

[Lintbf]

Hmm, only me I have this behavior

[volumio]

Thanks for the feedback guys!
For the genre filter, it’s on our TODO list. We will do it after we have a 100% working version (which we are very close to have )
