Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] TIDAL comp. to Spotify - Online Music Library integration

2020-06-04 Thread NielsSch


Hi Michael

Thanks for your reply. You ask for information in the server.log - but
nothing is logged related to pause and return play of a song. When you
pause in a "favorit TIDAL song", start playback and look at the web
interface you will see: The clock showing the amount of time the song
have been playing starts but no music can be heard. After some seconds
the time play clock return back to when the music was paused and start
counting again - still no music. This sequence seems to be repeated
forever.

Best Regards
Niels

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] TIDAL comp. to Spotify - Online Music Library integration

2020-06-03 Thread Michael Herger

I have tried both Spotify and TIDAL with the Online Music Library
Integration. It seams as the integration with Spotify have more features
(or I might have done something wrong with the TIDAL integration). From
the Spotify app on my iPhone I can chose music from Spotify library and
(also in the app) select which Squeezebox client I will use to play on.
Also I can control the volume of the Squeezebox. On the TIDAL app on the
iPhone this is not possible. It seems as I can't use the TIDAL app to
stream to Squeezebox.


What you're referring to is Spotify Connect. It's a protocol Spotify 
defined and that found some acceptance on the market. TIDAL and all the 
others don't have that feature. Therefore we can't implement TIDAL 
playback from within TIDAL's app.



Both Spotify and TIDAL have the feature to mark a favorite album, artist
or song and after a while it will be available as part of the (local)
music library found in Squeezebox. Great - but of some reasons when you
play (here controlled by iPeng or from the web interface) a favorite
mark from TIDAL, there seems to be an issue when you try to pause
playing or skip to another point in the song. In both cases playing
can't be continued from where you paused or skipped too. In this case
you have to continue play by starting from the beginning of a song.


Seeking within a track should just work. Pause I'm not sure, as LMS 
would usually top playback of remote streams after some time.


When you used logging for player.source and you tried to seek, what 
would you see in server.log?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] TIDAL comp. to Spotify - Online Music Library integration

Hi all

Michael and others: Thanks for the great work you do to keep Squeezebox
as a great product.

I don't know if this difference has something to do with the changes
TIDAL force you to do regarding login to TIDAL - or it is just as it
is.
