this may not be the right place and I may have to ask Qobuz instead but I would like to ask this community first to find out if it is worth spending more time on it.
I am trying Qobuz with the 30-day trial using MyVolumio. I can play music from the Volumio UI using the Qobuz My Albums (and other buttons).
However, I am trying to use the Qobuz (Windows) Desktop app to select and start the music in the same way I use Spotify Connect.
Below “Audio output” I can see Volumio in the DLNA / UPnP section (see screenshot below). But whenever I select this audio device it does not play any music.
Does anyone know if this is a known issue (it is still in beta) or should this work?
I stopped using qobuz and myvolumio because this didn’t work, and I didn’t like the myvolumio UI to search qobuz. Maybe things have improved now, but I don’t know.
Instead I went back to using the free volumio with my local flac files and occasionally buy new music from the qobuz shop or hdtracks.
Ok, I took some time to analyze this error: the QOBUZ app is sending a malformed URI via UPNP (they say it’s still in beta and it might not work).
So I tried fixing the malformed URI, but this seems really messed up and I could not find a reliable way to parse & fix the malformed URI that the QOBUZ app is sending.
We’re exploring a way to make it work by getting out the song id (this is easy) and then using myvolumio to retrieve the streaming URI. This will require to have myvolumio subscription but it will work
LOL – this is how I discovered Volumio in the first place. I had no way to stream hi res music too my stereo system from Qobuz even with their beta DLNA. Of course their DLNA has been in beta for years and I wouldn’t keep my fingers crossed. Volumio solved the issue for me and I am quite pleased, just wish they would make the HDMI output prettier.
