Deezer HiFi support for Android TV devices

Extremely need it too...

Hopefully you didn't forget to get back with news. 😊 Do you have any? 

Not yet @udy 

But it's on the plans, TVs are something we're due to improving to our users for quite some time and we're discussing our plans at the moment 

I'm tracking some ideas, and nothing is happening for years.

Made Android TV + DAC + Loudspeakers setup today. Installed Deezer... No Hi-Fi available. It is not even a surprising thing for Deezer. It's ok. Just deal with it.

I've found a workaround and now have Hi-Fi quality on Android TV.

1. Go to Android TV apps 

2. Delete Deezer cache and data 

3. Then delete an app itself 

 4. Go to Play Market and install Tidal to get HiFi and even Master quality on Android TV

@Andrew.Snejovski that’s a really great idea! Especially if you don’t care about price, proper Google Assistant integration, or a library that’s versatile in all genres.

Fitting those same criteria, I think I’ve got an even better idea: Unplug your NVidia Shield, throw it in the garbage, go buy a nice turntable (I recommend the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo: https://www.amazon.ca/Project-Debut-Carbon-EVO-White/dp/B08G864TK3/) , also buy a Ortofon 2M Black replacement cartridge (https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B002SDY2OC), and buy all the music you want to listen to on 180-gram vinyl. You’ll never have to worry about software updates/compatibility or making sarcastic comments online again!

STILL no ability to stream Atmos or HiFi from an Nvidia Shield/Android TV?  Decided to trial Deezer alongside Tidal but this would be an immediate loss for Deezer.  No ability to stream quality audio on quality equipment is a baffling product designchoice.

Rafael from Deezer replied a year ago saying by 2020 it should work. Any update on that yet?

An AndroidTV user in the German Deezer community recently reported that he could stream in HiFi quality when using the built-in Chromecast feature of the TV setand on his Android smartphone. The HiFi icon is showing on the TV screen then.

Hard to believe that Deezer hi-fi is still not available via the Android TV app. I was with Tidal, moved over to Deezer, but this might get me to move back, or to somewhere where such a basic requirement is catered for.
