Qobuz.com streaming plugin

[Darkseed]

If you install Squeezelite or Squeezelite-X (recommended) on the PC then you will be able to control it with iPeng or similar. Is that what you mean? You can’t use the Qobuz app itself though.
Edit. This will do Hi-Res if you set up the Qobuz plugin to do so.

I will clarify the question whether it is possible to control the playback of Qobuz on the computer from the iPhone as well as it is done through the Spotify Connect function?

No.
Qobuz does not have the equivalent of Spotify Connect.
You would have to control Squeezelite playing Qobuz using iPeng or Material etc

Hi,

Didn't there used to be an "add to favorites" link button directly on the album cover art in search results, or am I misremembering?

Which skin?

Possibly "Additional Playlist Buttons".

Thanks, but this is about Qobuz specifically (ie in Qobuz search results - to add to Qobuz favourites, which results in the album being added to the SBS database)

It can be done by clicking into the album first - then there is an add to favourites option, but not from the top level search results. I may be getting confused with the BBC Sounds plugin, and this was never there for the Qobuz plugin.

I am having a problem with Qobuz playback lately.
Some albums give white noise.
It seems to be random and mainly in the genres/classical, jazz.. etc/best sellers, in the press..etc.
My already favorite albums seem to work OK.
In my favorite artists again randomly I get noise
I had Roon (I’m just testing it afte) running in the same network and everything played ok at the same end point (Roon/RAAT, LMS/Squeezelite)
Any ideas?
Thank you very much!

Do you know whether Qobuz music files have replay gain tags embedded or whether there is any normalization applied, and whether this is detectable. I am testing my DSP plugin for clipping having applied -9 volume adjustment for streaming services and this seems to correct most tracks but I am seeing quite a lot of Qobuz tracks going into clipping when I run through DSP whereas normalised tracks do not.

Unfortunately I don't have any Qobuz subscription... but is it reproducible for a given track? What kind of player are you using?

Support for replay gain was introduced in 2.7.0.

Hi Michael,

We've emaild about this last december.
I then thought it worked, and emaild this,
but then when I listenend and looked again, it didn't
and apparently you missed that mail.

After that you had the transfer of the forum and I figured you had a lot of more important things to do, and then I forgot about it.

But there is the replay gain data, but the player doesn't seem to know about this.

maybe you could look at it again?

cheers
Dennis

Thank you for replying!!!
yes it is reproducible
I'm using gentooplayer on rpi4
with roon on the same end point even with roon running to squeezelite output i do not have this issue

[mherger]

Ah, ok. I'll have to double check...

[DomieMic65]

You mean with a whole setup piCore: LMS/Squeezelite or just Squeezelite?

[mherger]

pCP. Your system already is using some version of squeezelite. But in order to better understand whether it’s the stream or your system you should try with a setup which is known to work well.

BTW: what DAC are you using? Might be a problem with its configuration, too.
