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:

I can't wait for it either @JoeBro1907 

I use the desktop app on a daily basis to be able to test these issues and also track issues. I also wear Bluetooth headphones and I miss using media buttons as the web player does.

Lastly, I'm very eager for when we get gapless playback too!

Besides, it'll make me really fulfilled once I can tell you all that these things are no longer a problem :thumbsup_tone2:

Yeah I noticed that too! Also it’d be nice if it didn’t take so much to load a song… But I can live with that, for now...

We're working on that too, our player, to improve performance @JoeBro1907 everyone here at Deezer is fed up with bugs :sweat_smile: but we're working on long-term improvements, that's why it takes longer.

Thanks for the feedback @Jure Simon we'll certainly pass it on to our devs.

Just wanted to let you know that I resolved this issue. The issue was with the older version of Sql server. After update, the issue is gone :) .

Hey,

 

I have my Deezer Desktop App (Windows Store as well as the one provided under https://www.deezer.com/desktop/download?platform=win32&architecture=x86) crash on me seconds after login.

Each time I uninstall, reinstall, it opens and after login it crashes.

I already reinstalled my whole machine (for another reason ;)) and this behaviour persists. I am running a really clean setup, no firewalls, no Adblocks etc.

Any tips?

I can’t listen to Music in Firefox eiter, because Deezer doesn’t support the browser. :(

 

Best regards,

Carl Philipp

Hi

My Windows Version is 202H

I installed Deezer Windows APP today from the Windows Store.

 

Deezer App starts - I was able to login over the Web - then back In the App I must select a user profile (it’s a family account). After selecting the profile the app closes herselve.

 

I start again the app, I see for a short moment the frame of the app. Then it’s gone again.

I unistalled the app and installed it again. It’s working again until the step with the selection of the profiles.

 

Any idea?

 

regards

I have re installed Deezer HiFi on My PC and 2 phones. O the phones everything works correctly. But, on my PC app I cannot get hifi quality playback. The  audio is set to high fidelity. I have done a re install. The PC is set to 48000 Hz. The album covers or icons don`t show hifi either. Any help would be appreciated. Signed Frustrated of Thailand

Did you check the album cover in the play queue view? The normal album page and the thumbnail in the playbar will not show you the HiFi or HQ sticker.
