Can you try to modify one of your playlists and see whether that would help?

I have tried to modify my playlists, clean up and delete many of my own and remove favorite hearts from other favorite playlists, create new playlists, but still the same problem and view as @viaca.

Except for only 2 of my own personally created playlists, I only se external/Tidal playlists marked as favorites, in both available views in the Squezebox Tidal plugin menu. I can see no obvious difference between the 2 personal playlists that I actually show in the menus and all the other ones that do not show.

I didn't have any playlists before creating a profile. I created one playlist since and it does appear in My Playlists in LMS Tidal.

I really don't know what's going on... but it seems TIDAL has broken a
thing or two. The developers portal is inaccessible, too :-(

Could you please try again?

[Vegz78]

I now see all my personally created playlists again under LMS Tidal plugin menu "My playlists",
and all my favorite/heart-marked playlist under LMS Tidal plugin menu "Favorites - Playlists"!


Great work and thank you very much, @mherger, for your quick support(once again!)! -Really appreciate it!

I'm not sure we're done yet. ... Hopefully the docs will come
back, updated.

I share your anticipation and hope, @mherger!

But if Tidal does not want to invest further in the best and most open music system with the best community anywhere and ever, there are hopefully other options going forward!

I choose optimism and really appreciate that you made it possible, apparently through some clever undocumented reverse engineering, for us to listen to our homemade playlists again, hopefully through Christmas, at least! ;-)

I can also confirm that most of my Tidal playlists were not visible but yesterday they all came back.

[Note: Problem has been solved, see replies! There is a network setting that caches entire streaming files to disk!]

Hello all, I recent started using piCore Player on a Raspberry Pi, but the issue I am about to describe also happens on normal squeezebox devices (Touch) as well. In short, songs that are longer than 15 minutes or so on Tidal end abruptly after 15 or so minutes and jump ahead to the next song. I ran with logging turned on and capture it happening twice, it follows the same sequence, shown below. This does NOT happen with files on my own squeezebox server. Note the arrow/annotation that shows where I see the problem starting:

etc etc etc... it's now playing the next song.

So I have to wonder if there is a way to, for instance, buffer ENTIRE songs to the device before streaming? Or is there another way around this? It's highly reproducible. I listen to a lot of ambient music and this is a real annoying problem (songs go for an hour or more). This only happens with Tidal streaming, and it's the only real problem I have with Tidal (other than the server occasionally forgetting and having to relearn my entire Tidal collection... but I can live with this).
