Samsung Multiroom App Feedback: login and other issues

Sorry to hear that @Raun - I've been just relaying the progress that has been communicated to me. And doing the same from here to them, the doors are wide open and I read all of your comments. I'm genuinely sorry for the upset.

This situation has been escalated to a higher level here as well, quite some time ago, so we're just waiting to hear more the same way that you do.

In the meantime and separate to this issue, we're working on improving our own API for existing and future integrations.

Well still no fix, so Deezer cancelled and switched to Spotify

Hi Rudi,

when can we expect progress? right now we need two things:

1. A confirmation that a fix will be implemented
2. A commitment to an acceptable  timeline for the fix

given that neither product has significantly changed, this should be an easy fix - I.e. reverse the code change that broke this.

Thanks, @Ripperoo and all for your patience and feedback. We're working on getting this clarified with Samsung. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused 

Deezer is there any solution on the Samsung Multiroom app or should we give up and go to Spotify?

It could be the Samsung Tech has it all wrong and was just fobbing off “JaneD” as they had no clue what she was on about.

That’s why it would be nice for the Deezer representative here to either confirm or deny this is the case.

I’ve no doubt “JaneD” explained the issue clearly to Samsung but some so called “Tech Support” are utterly clueless.

Some of them know less about the issues than the user sometimes because the user has spent a lot of time doing their own research, before contacting first line “Tech Support”, who, having no first hand experience with the tech in question, read from a script and default to just telling the user to reboot everything!

I just don’t think tech support realise that some people are clever enough to figure most things out and only get in touch with them as a last resort after everything else has failed and rebooted everything five times already.

Ripperoo, can you give us the link to the Samsung Community about this issue?

For me it gives no meaning if Samsung “only” shuts down Deezer within the Multiroom app….. Still Deezer is the only Music streamer there is supported in the Samsung newer speakers with the Smartthings app?

Jag kan inte logga in på Samsung Multiroom appen den säger att min mejladress eller lösenord är fel. Jag har inte skrivit fel och jag har gjort det ni rekommenderar med byta lösenord och avinstallera. Detta fel har varit i över en månad, jag har varit i kontakt med både Deezer och Samsung utan någon förklaring.

Ska jag kasta mina högtalare och gå till Spotify? Vill inte det.

Yes I tried accessing via the Soundbar and it worked. It would great if between Deezer and Samsung if they could fix this - if it works with the Soundbar then it can’t be “unfixable”.

Thanks for figuring this out anyway! It’s a work around but does mean we can’t use the Soundbar for the TV while blasting out S Club Seven, Slipknot etc  on the Multiroom system.

I imagine there are a number of people who don’t have a Samsung Soundbar and can’t use this approach.

Finally I see that there is people who have a lot of money invested in Samsung Multiroom and Deezer…. This is the same here dkr. 25000,- (3000£)

We must not give up. - Like you Ripperoo. - I have the same thoughts about Samsung is about to shut the Multiroom app down…. And only developed on the Smartthings for the future and their new soundsystems…

If anyone have the opportunity to speak with a lawyer or a person who have the skills to this kind of case. Please take this case further…… I really think we only have a chance, if we stick together and make a lawsuit against Samsung...

OMG, Stuart!

I thought I’d written that in my sleep, seriously!

I too ended up with over £2000 worth of paperweights after being coaxed by the Deezer promotion which worked OK until May 2018

For almost two years, I and many others had the dreaded “INTERNAL SERVER ERROR” and “SELECTED ITEM IS OUT OF RANGE”  error messages when trying to launch personal playlists created after May 2018, following the last firmware update by Samsung.

There is a long thread on the Deezer forums, dedicated to the issue and all the things good people who had spent a lot of their time doing the developer’s work, but ultimately without any result.

I’m a stubborn as a mule and have stuck with Deezer right up until last month, hoping they would sort this issue out, but even stubborn mules have a limit!

When I read about the log-in issue, I was still logged in to Deezer (in Multiroom) , but only one playlist created prior to May 2018 still worked and also FLOW (for all the good that is).

As an experiment, I logged out and guess what?  Log In error.

Now the reason I replied to your post was firstly because you are in a very similar position as myself after spending a shed load of money on something for the same reason (I’d never heard of Deezer before either, but it looked good), which is basically worthless without working streaming services.

Secondly, it was to tell my new tale of woe!

When I decided to quit Deezer altogether, I took out a trial of “Tidal HiFi” and IMHO, it is very good, despite being quite expensive @ £20 per month.

Everything was working fine and reminded me of a time when Deezer worked like that.

Then today arrived!  This morning started playing one of my discography playlists and it played fine and as normal.

Later today after working outside for a few hours, went to play another playlist and got an “Invalid Token” error message.

Logged out and tried logging back in “Invalid ID” error message.

So I changed the “Tidal” password via their website and tried logging in via Multiroom and the same error message again.

I have got a sneaky suspicion this may be a Samsung issue and maybe they are trying to slowly wind down the Multiroom app in favour of “Smart Things”, which is a big pile of bloated garbage in my opinion and does not work with Samsung R360 speakers.

Samsung Suck!
