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:

Hello!

Deezer stopped working on Windows 10 desktops (both App and Web) beginning from last Friday (21.10.2022). For some reason all the traffic is denied from our office external IP address.

 

WEB

 

APP

Looks, like you’re offline

 

But mobile App works fine on mobile network.

Also, Web app works from browser, when VPN is activated (was tested in Opera).

 

Could you suggest what could be the reason for blocking the IP address and/or service?  Or this could be the problem on ISP side?

 

Thanks,

Yaroslav

I’m gobsmacked that some of the answers to these questions are 2 years old!

I’m new to Deezer and am finding using it on my tablet, which is most of the time, horrible.

Tracks from an album in a playlist have horrible gaps. Listening to Van Morrison It’s too late to stop now is suddenly a miserable experience. It’s a live album where do the pauses come from?

The app also closes all the time for no reason. If I pause a track it does it, if I’m searching it does it, if I’m leaving well alone and letting it play it does it. It’s just done it now as I type.

Frankly I’m starting to feel the premium price isn’t worth the hassle.

On HP laptop with Win 10 Enterprise, Deezer 5.30.320 crashes/quits when I am moving the Deezer app window with the mouse.

Not just minimises, it diappears from Task Manager.

It happened several times.

Actions taken: restarted computer, checked and no pending Deezer app or Windows updates.

I have this as well.   I dop have a 3440x1440 resolution screen.  If I change the resolution down to 1920x1200 or below  it stops doing it though.  2560x1080 and above crshes on move.

I have a screen recording if you want me to send it to you.

When I play a playlist there is often a short interuption at the start  each new song. Happens both in Android app and desktop app.

Web player Windows desktop notification for now playing song doesn’t work properly. It appears 2 times, firstly with right artist name plus cover and track title from the previous song, the second time with all info correct.

Example on gif, songs played: Rainbow “The Temple of the King” → Rush “Tom Sawyer”

“Your computer seems to be offline. We'll keep trying to reconnect.”

Web browser on linux.

Message clearly inaccurate as music still playing!

Probably occurring as I block trackers/email and marketing.

Deezer you really need to stop the tracking!

Hi, I am using windows app version 5.30.510. The close and report buttons are not clickable when lyrics shown.

I keep getting these error messages multiple times each day, they seem random.
It’s in both the windows app as in the webplayer in chrome.
If I restart the app or refresh the browser everything works again.

Another bug: when I open any playlist in the desktop app, the app turns black (not in chrome player).
I’m not sure but it seems more errors happen when I remove songs froms playlists.
Also some songs in playlists won’t download and the app crashes when trying to play those songs.

I can’t close the lyrics view, that X button on the upper left corner does nothing. Win 11, app version 5.30.520. The only thing that helps in this situation is clicking on Queue button.
