That screen is from Material Skin, which implements its own sorting, making it UI specific.

Are you sure?

Here a picture of default skin.

...which does its own sorting, too. Two independent implementations.

Actually, Material just passes the sort-order onto LMS - its LMS that actually sorts the items. The only sorting Material will do is the 'reverse' sort.

Correct. But the discussion started around adding a new feature for a certain menu. All UIs (Default, Material, ...) would have to implement the UI part of that independently. The plugin can't drive this. That's why I said it's not going to happen. A user can still import the Qobuz library and use the feature from the main music navigation.

Hi

Is there a possibility of debugging this (and fix it)? How can I help?

https://play.qobuz.com/album/r84skwxh7zgga



Within the Qobuz player itself all tracks of this album can be played (see screenshot above)

In the Qobuz plugin however only 2 tracks. I've seen this (but rarely) before with other albums too.



Many thanks in advance.

Enable debug logging for plugin.qobuz (Settings/Advanced/Logging), navigate to that album again, send the server.log.zip file to https://www.dropbox.com/request/T3RctyzGgNg0oFDubq6a. And turn off logging again.

Hi Michael,

Thanks!

Server.log uploaded to your dropbox.

I believe that you have to scroll to the

entry. That's were I selected the album to play (add to the playlist).

Checked your log file. And what I'm seeing there is that according to the data we receive from Qobuz not all tracks are flagged "streamable". Why that would be I don't know. But the plugin relies on that flag to figure out whether a track can be played or not. Most likely this is a data problem on Qobuz' end. Maybe you can get in touch with them about this. Refer to the album ID "r84skwxh7zgga". It's a relatively new release (Feb 10). Sometimes there are data problems with new records.

Thanks Michael,

Last year I had contact with them, back then it was also happening in their player with a few albums, it took many mails back and forth before they understood that it was not due to licensing (each time I reported such error they responded initially like that). Helpdesk terror combined with ignorance.

I don't think I want to go down that rabbit hole again, especially as the album is in their player okay and this only happens with the API LMS uses (and no longer is the official API as I understand).

Sigh.

I am able to play all tracks from that album. Could it be related to the user's location? I'm in the US.

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

Hello Michael and sorry for the late answer!
Finally problem was solved after updating Squeezelite!
Thank you once more!!!

could be that one of the CDN servers they use is out of sinchronisation. Long time ago I had some other isue and snooped around and found they used Akamai as CDN.

I’m located in the Netherlands.

At least for some classical albums, Qobuz are subdividing into "works". This is rendered in the LMS interface as below. As you can see, on the left (the Qobuz album detail info) you can see the two works which make up the album, in this case "Cello Concerto in D minor" and "Cello Concerto in F major", each of which has 3 movements (tracks). In the Qobuz web player, they very usefully also show the composer in brackets. It would be great if the plug-in could do this.

I don't know how this is implemented, but it is possible in LMS to click on "play" for the individual work and only the tracks for that work are added to the playlist. This is an advance on the Qobuz web player/Android app, where you can only add either the whole album or individual tracks to the playlist.

It would be very excellent if those "work" lines could be added to the playlist as subtitles, so the playlist would look something like:

Cello Concerto in D minor (Édouard Lalo)

I. .........
II. ..........
III ...........

Cello Concerto in F major (Enric Casals)

I. .........
II. ..........
III ...........

Thanks,
Darrell

Thanks for the info! It's maybe an opportunity for our community to ask Qobuz again for some help and flexibility on the use of their API's or on the plugin certification (to get automatic generated playlist).
Will try to attend.
