[SOLVED] TIDAL

[serverbaboon]

For your Notes Kent:
I am no longer on the version UPMPDCLI that is default with Moode but I think the log entries actually end up in syslog, perhaps a bug. I think think this is fixed in the latest source code but it is not available as a package.

From what I understand from the developer UPMPDCLI serves up a url (as above) but this url actually does a redirect to the tidal url which is why the Tidal URL errors appear in the MPD logs I think.

I twigged to the syslog entries only a couple of days ago  Thanks for getting the information into this thread.

I recently built upmpdcli 1.3.0 to try out its Radio Paradise FLAC capability. The basic UPnP functionality is working on my moOde player but I haven't sorted out the plugins yet. TIDAL/gmusic are generating "Service login of communication failure" messages in BubbleUPnP and I haven't sorted how to present the radio list in BubbleUPnP for either this version of upmpdcli or the 1.2.16 version distributed with recent moOde releases. This weekend I've been doing community volunteer work so won't get back to the problem for a couple of days yet.

Yes, the URL is redirected within upmpdcli. MPD remains blissfully unaware of TIDAL.

Regards,
Kent

To get the Radio feature to work unfortunately you need to use BubbleDS which tends to be a little bit behind Bubble standard and is not free (but cheap).

Bubbleupnp only supports the Renderer controlled playlist part of ohome, it doesn't support ohradio and I also do not think it supports ohcredentials that the dev has implemented in 1.3x.

You can also use Lumin and Linn Kazoo.

Of the three Linn Kazoo has the best support (obvious I suppose) but is (IMHO) sometimes obtuse, bubbleds is the best user interface.

I have not talked about v1.3 as there is a funny with Lumin that is causing issues so its not ready for main stream Moode.

How ever if you you do not use use Lumin you can use the ohcredentials feature in Linn Kazoo and BubbleDS to access Tidal and Qobuz which will allow you add albums and artists and albums to your favourites.

Also I see in 1.31 he is working on Spotify support.

The Radio Paradise Flac support is nice, complete with album artwork support, I was surprised when he did it as he did say it was a bit to much work for one radio station as Radio Paradise's FLAC feed is not a stream as such but rather multiple flac files that you play one after the other.

I have been absent for a sometime due to lots of commitments but hopefully I can be a bit more active now, give me a shout if you still have issues.

Regarding Tidal and Bubble I wonder if there is some confusion with ohcredentials.
With 1.3 I have removed the passwords from the upmpdcli.conf file and have entered them into Kazoo, there is a special flag below that you can put in the conf file to turn off ohcredentials for BubbleUPNP. If you have any further questions might be worth starting another thread or just pm me rather than take this thread too far off topic.
