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

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:

Same Issue with The Windows Desktop app crashes when moving the window like @razorsoup

My setup is a laptop with full HD and 2x 27” WQHD screens.

When i move app to another screen, no matter which, app is crashing in 80% of tries.

Only maximize of APP and Win+Shift+arrow keys works

Happen on Win10 and Win11.

 

Second Issue, no notification that new update is available of desktop app.

checked the settings in app, but could not find where to switch on this indication

Hi @razorsoup, sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue.

I've already shared your information with our developers.

They couldn't reproduce the issue on Windows 10, but they're currently trying to replicate it on Windows 11.

Once I receive feedback from their side, I'll update you.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Any updates yet? My month is about to expire and I’m not planning on resubscribing again until this app is actually usable.

Hi @razorsoup, currently, we're actively working on a solution.

An upgrade is planned for later this year, which we believe will address this issue.

However, I must note that we don't have an exact timeframe for when this upgrade will be implemented.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Hi everyone,

 

Just took up Deezer to benefit from the streaming experience in my Marantz Cinema 50 receiver using HEOS. I searched answers with “album art” keyword but I couldn’t find a topic other than one from Android6 times which is old and irrelevant.

My problem is that I cannot see any album art nor reach the full functionality of Deezer from within Heos stresmer. I was fed up with having to move out of Heos go Ağple Music App and Airplay music that is why I moved to Deezer to be able to stream directly from within Heos app.(although Hi-res streaming is not allowed unlüke Tidal). But not seeing the album art nor being able to find music from Heos is also as bad of an experience as the Airplay. Is it a Deezer isssue or Heos and who can fix the problem, I can’t say. I’ll appreciate if anyone has more info on this. Cheers.

Hello @Arhan I went through several threads and I couldn’t a similar complaint, so I would say in first instance that this might be on Heos side. 

Have you tried some troubleshooting on the Denon app: 

  • clear cache
  • check if you have the latest version of Denon Heos app
  • reboot phone
  • unlink Deezer service and link again
  • Delete the app and install it again
  • if you have a second mobile device try from that device

Unfortunately there isn’t a desktop app Denon Heos to test from the PC. If nothing works, try to open a ticket in Denon Support. If the issue is related to Deezer api integration, they can open a ticket directly with Deezer. Please let us know if anything helped.

Regarding the Flac quality indeed, only stream in 320 Kbps is available. You could get the Hi resolution quality casting to our Denon device or using Airplay, which is not ideally.

Hi Deezer team,

This is a super minor observation and the smallest of issues, so not a priority at all  🙂

I noticed that the dimensions of the Deezer app icon on MacOS seem to be different to every other app on my Mac. I guess it doesn’t conform to Apple’s standard app dimensions..? For reference, I’m on version 6.0.150.258 of the MacOS app.

Here’s what it looks like when in the dock at the moment:

The Deezer icon (4th from the right) is larger and more square than all other app icons.

But here’s what it would ideally look like:

The Deezer icon (4th from right) but resized to match the standard dimensions for MacOS app icons.

I had a go at resizing the icon myself using Apple’s offical app template and have attached a .png version. I couldn’t attach the proper .icns version directly here, so have zipped it and attached that too.

Of course, this is an unimportant issue, but figured it could be a nice minor fix for those of us who notice these things (and some easy points for the dev team).

Otherwise, the app is working really well for me!

Thanks :)

In the Desktop App, when we want to add a title to a playlist, the window is so little ! Why ?! Not fun to scroll when we have many playlists. (see image)

Really, your App is globally much less user-friendly than the Spotify one, please do better beta testing or something else...please. I would like to use french solution…

Hello! Just wanted to notice some annoying bug on Windows 11 at this moment:

  When you delete a track in your own playlist, and select another track to listen in the same playlist, it plays another track. It happens always. I will explain it again, I have my own playlist with three tracks A, B and C. I delete track A. I press to play track B, but it starts to play track C. To fix this I need to open Deezer App again.
