Windows/Mac Deezer Desktop/Web App - Bugs/Issues/Workarounds

 

 Our Desktop/Web app can improve, and we need your help :desktop:

This is the topic dedicated to all problems you may face when using our desktop and web apps, big or small.

 What should I post here? :thinking:

  • if the app is acting in an unusual way, when you click on the menus and buttons, for example
  • if the player is displaying error messages, or if the playback is interrupted, let us know
  • if you're unable to login, or if the app kicks you out, we need to be aware too
  • if it simply crashes on you, when you connect or not to a device, it's better to leave a comment
  • if you have tips or workarounds to share, they'll be very welcome too

This topic is intended for version 4.20.0 and above, and for our browser version of Deezer :floppy_disk:

Thanks for reporting it @Dave.Farmer 4.27 is in the oven right now, please keep an eye for it and let us know how it performs too - it'll be good to compare :thumbsup_tone2:

Will do. Let me know if I can provide any additional info (logs etc.) to be of help.

I am 20 minutes in to my Monday Discovery playlist on Hifi-Quality using 4.27. 

Still windows 10 Home 2004 build 19041.572

No instances of buffering at the start of a track so far! I’ll keep you updated as the day goes on.

I am a subscriber to Deezer hifi.

I use the Deezer desktop app for Windows (Windows store).

 

# Annoyance 1

Why do I have to keep logging into this app? Please fix this. There arent any good reasons why I should have to keep logging in to a desktop app (or a web app for that matter).

 

  • Just fix it. A long lived access token shoud do the trick.
  • Tell your devs.

 

# Annoyance 2

When I as a paying subscriber is trying to log into Deezer, I dont want to solve your stupid captchas. I want to be listening to good music, not selecting pictures of bloody bicycles and buses.

 

  • Just fix it.
  • Tell your devs.

 

The reason I write this post is because I otherwise love the service and would like to keep using it, free of annoyances.

Hey folks :)

sorry, if that has already been addressed, but I can’t use the media buttons with the Deezer App on MacOS. 
Maybe there’s some compatibility issue because I’m on the Big Sur Beta or have I just missed some setting?

 

Thanks and greeting :)

Hey @Johnny Deformed 

Thanks for reaching out. Please see this topic here, it has a step-by-step guide that may help you get them working :wink:

Hi @johnsn 

Thanks for letting us know. I've personally noticed the same too, it shouldn't be like that. It might be a bug, so I reported to our devs straight away :thumbsup_tone2:

Hello. Sorry for my bad English. Until recently, there were 100 tracks in my listening history, now it is only 40. It became very uncomfortable. Is this a bug? If so, please fix it. Screenshot from Deezer 4.27.0 for Windows, but the same story in the web version.

Hi mate,

Unfortunately, after some more listening today, it is clear that the issue of buffering after a song has started persists in 4.27. Bah!

@Rudi Would personally like to debug with a dev if possible. I really like this app, and want to keep using it, but this bug is really frustrating. Faster they can collect data/logs on the playback error the faster this bug will be patched.
