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:

Running Deezer Version 4.27.0 (4.27.0.137) on MacOS 11.0.1.

The menus on the app are covered by the default Mac buttons (Close, Minimise, Full Screen). Needs some tidying up.

Please keep me posted, yes @Dave.Farmer at the same time I'm in touch with the devs about your reports @aatac @Dave.Farmer :thumbsup_tone2:


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!

Just FYI, I’m downgrading to Deezer Family until this gets sorted (gapless playback would also be nice), so I won’t be available for debugging efforts. Apols and good luck!

Hey there @Dave.Farmer 

Sorry about that, was just going to ask you for that but I completely understand. I'll forward your comments and details to our devs.

Hi @aatac because I'm not an expert, I encourage you to contact them directly - maybe one of them can actually engage in fixing this with your logs without the need for an intermediate. You can reach out via here in Twitter :wink:

Hey @kitster thanks for reporting it. Have you tried reinstalling the app? I couldn't reproduce it.

Hi @Starks1991 will check this for you with our devs, buddy. Thanks for reaching out!

My laptop has Dolby Access app (it’s an equalizer)

So, Deezer stops playing and shows an error message every time I change profile in dolby access

All other apps have no issues with dolby.

Hmmm, thanks for reporting it @nyje!

Have you contacted Dolby about it? It could be something to do with our API but we haven't changed anything at the moment. Any updates due to the Access app, maybe?

Having issues with the Windows desktop app:

  1. App seems stuck at version 4.18.60.  Is there a way to trigger an update?
  2. App often does not refresh, leaving a completely black client area.  Seen most recently on the “Music” page, then scroll down to “Recommended Releases”, click one, black screen.  Sometimes it also displays “An error occurred, please try again later”.

Thanks for reaching out @deeluk 

Just make sure you uninstall it using the option from the control panel in your Windows. After that, you can install it again once downloaded from here: https://www.deezer.com/desktop/download?platform=win32&architecture=x86

or https://www.deezer.com/en/download 

Let us know how it goes :wink:

Hi @borut, I just asked a developer and that link is compatible to 64 bits :slight_smile:
