question about upnp

[lifeform]

hello @Tim Curtis
i have some question about upnp
i found that the config is in /etc/upmpdcli.conf, and looks like you have parser to change this config with this page www/upp-config.php
the question is. 
1. i not found any device config for upnp. that you configure to connect. is there another config ?
2. there is tidal option there. why it is not implemented in moode? any reason?

[Tim Curtis]

The UPnP tidal option apparently doesn't work anymore so there is no point to having a UI for it. For a status on this and other upmpdcli components visit the maintainers repo https://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/

UPnP is based on auto discovery. If you turn on the UPnP Client for MPD in Renderer Config then "Moode UPNP" should show up at some point in a UPnP Control Point for example Linn Kazoo, Lumin, Bubble, mConnect, etc.

Tidal has made life difficult for third-party devs. 

I'm away from my desk so will just say there has been recent work on the upmpdcei-tidal plugin (most recent release was just yesterday). I haven't successfully built and tested it yet but even if it checks out we have to deal with the complicated authentication process. Qobuz was a piece of cake by comparison.

Yes. The UPnP renderer uses MPD for playback.

Hello @TheOldPresbyope, unless something changed in the last few days, the tidal plugin should work. I have been using it last week.
Admittedly the login process is convoluted, but should be working. I successfully installed an upmpdcli media server for Tidal using docker at my father-in-law's a few weeks ago.
If it isn't working for you, please open a ticket on the repository.
Thank you.

<tl;dr> I don't doubt it works.

I've been ignoring Tidal for the past several months (time management issues!) but noticed it mentioned recently in the upmpdcli release notes and thought I'd try again. I'm sure I just did something stupid trying to paste upmpdcli-1.8.13 and its media-server plugins over the existing 1.8.12 installation in moOde. Your get-credentials.py code now works a treat, thanks. Dealing with PKCE-mode authentication is downright gnarly

I'll keep at it as I get time.
