Deezer LMS plugin for Squeezebox suddenly not working

A lot of Squeezebox users are reporting in the LMS forum that the new local Deezer plugin for LMS stopped working properly a couple of days ago. “My Collection” is showing up as “Empty” in all categories (Songs, Albums, Playlists, etc.). I can listen to my Flow and Smart Radio, but song titles and artwork are not displayed, and users who log out are unable to log back in. I hope Deezer will be able to help resolve this situation.

What I can gather from the LMS Forum that this is beginning to sound like Deezer may have pulled the plug on the API, but at this stage I will give Deezer the benefit of the doubt. It could well be some technical glitch at their end.

I hope they read the posts on this forum so they can get all the info on this very annoying situation.

Everything was working so well until a few days ago…..maybe it was a matter of time before it all went t**s up.

Deezer have to remember that we are paying subscribers and we want to be able to access Deezer through Lyrion Media Server, and if we can’t we will not be happy ‘bunnies’!!

Speaking as someone who joined Deezer specifically because it was supported on Logitech / Squeezebox devices via LMS, I'd really appreciate any effort Deezer can put into getting the API working again. 

The alternative, for me at least, would be to move to one of the platforms that does still support my devices. That would be a shame as I've had my family plan with Deezer for many years.

Agreeing with the earlier posters here. Definitely a dealbreaker if API is not fixed soon!

Hi

I’m about to choose between distribution on my Raspberry and streaming provider. I Think i will choose LMS for free local Flac files playing and streaming possibilities.

I use Deezer actually. I understand i had to replace it by Qobuz for a no-brainer solution.

Hi famhaget,

Good choice, I have been using LMS with PiCore Player and it works great on my Raspberry pi 5.

Once you have set it up you can go to the apps on LMS and install the Deezer app, it works well with LMS.

If you access the LMS (now known as Lyrion Music Server) forum you can get plenty of help setting up your Raspberry pi.

Not sure why you had to replace Deezer with Qobuz.

Cheers

My Deezer family subscription is not working correctly with LMS / deezer plugin on Picoreplayer?


Cannot find my playlists or albums… It only shows 12 playlists?
Any idea if this will be fixed in future?
