Hi,

 

Since a month i've got troubles with Deezer and MusicCast via the Yamaha RX-A4A over and over again. The problem is that after a song or 2 or 3 Deezer stops playing music, also searching in my favorites does not work. Besides that a lot of times "no music" or that i'm not logged in anymore. This is becoming very annoying. I've read several forum topics but none of them gives me an solution. The weird part is sometimes it works again for serval hours, but it is not a specific time or day you can pin point.

 

What i've tried:

- Removing the MusicCast app from my Android (version 14) phone and reinstall the app (tested multiple phones) (version 5.70)

- Resetting the Deezer password

- Factory reset Yamaha RX-A4A

- Restarting network modem and router

- Setup a static IP address in the router for the Yamaha

- Turning off battery management in the MusicCast app 

- Updating the Yamaha receiver with the latest firmware (2.03/3.14)

 

None of them did the trick.

 

Hope someone from support has an solution!

 

Thanks in advance for your time,

 

Regards, Jeroen

Having the same issue. Did all the same things you did! Contacted tech support. This happens every few weeks. This happens on both android and iPhone. Deezer plays fine in my car so it is definitely a musiccast deezer sync issue. I may have to switch streaming services If this doesn't get resolved soon. Its very frustrating to have to keep opening support tickets. As im typing this, it just stopped again.


Same here. How many times...:(

 


And here we are, again not working. I've contacted also Yamaha support and they told me to go to an service center 100km away from where I live to look at the issue. I've told them this isn't a hardware issue but something between Deezer and MusicCast in my opinion. After that silence from support.


Just got off the phone with Yamaha. According to them Deezer, Tidal and Amazon were having issues since Monday. They say they opened up a ticket for me and will notify me when it is resolved. Very frustrating. I can play one song then i have to reboot app to play another.


Hello @Faethor_Ferenczy @Michal2000 @JeroenK thanks for your posts and sorry to hear that there is this ups and downs when using Deezer via Musiccast.

Indeed, as I just mentioned in another thread here seems to exist some latency in the integration, resulting on longer periods of loading, error messages.

I was about to ask if the issue was happening on iOS and Android devices, but according to @Faethor_Ferenczy it occurs in both OS. 

So maybe I am not correct, but sounds like not device related but more on Musiccast or Deezer integration.

Shared all these inputs to our developers to see if we can investigate on our side or alternatively if we can raise an incident near Yamaha.

When I get some relevant updates, I will update you all.

Hi Leonídia,

Thank you for the response, I hope this will be fixed very soon. Today I've updated the MusicCast app to version 5.8 but didn't try it yet. Wil check this evening and let you know my findings.

And now, 3pm in Poland....everything works! ;))

Hope it stays like this long time.

Problem still need to be solved


Here in the Netherlands, no worky. I'm getting an 'access error'.


Hi @JeroenK @Michal2000 @Faethor_Ferenczy as mentioned in my previous message, I’ve shared all your feedback with our developers, and they are still investigating the issue.

I’ll keep you updated as soon as I receive any feedback from our technical team.

Thank you for your patience, and I sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.


Hi @Leonídia.Deezer , thanks for the feedback. It looks a lot more stable these last days besides some suddenly logged out sessions. Hope that the technical team will fix everything so we can enjoy careless nice music 😀

 

Can you keep us posted when issue has been solved by the technical team. Also it would be nice to share some information about what they have done to solve this issue. Would be highly appreciated!

 

Thanks!


Hello all,

A few days has passed, nothing wrong till now :)

I would also want to know what had to be done to solve this. It would help for the future problems;)

Greetz!


same here - 10-30 seconds of play, then stops.
did not change anything in my set up. remember the issue from a couple of years back. definitely Musicast/Yamaha and Deezer issue.
also thinking of switching to something that works - tired.
