Ok, so I tried again, set my system language to English so that it is easier for everyone to understand what is going on with the data usage.DATA USAGE PRIOR TO STARTING DEEZER APPTHESE ARE THE SETTINGS FOR THE STREAMING VIA MOBILE DATAStarted the app with these settings. Then started to play a song:ALTHOUGH STREAMING QUALITY IS SET TO BASIC, THE SIGN HIFI IS VISIBLE IN LOWER LEFT CORNERData usage after playing several seconds of the song is as follows:I hope these screenshots help to clarify the situation with data usage.I believe that my mobile operator observed the same situation since it started including Deezer streaming via mobile data in my data plan, as it was not the case in previous months. This practice started ever since HiFi streaming quality was introduced into family subscription on Deezer.Hope this helps and I hope you can help me with this problem. Not really the problem, more an annoyance.All the best. Bodo
Hi @bizzysk! I have not yet tried setting different streaming quality on Wifi and Chromecast. I guess it affects playback quality over mobile data as well. Soon as I try different settings I will post my findings.
Hi Rick thank you for your help! This is a very good idea. Hope it works!
Hi Rick. No, I did not download the app using mobile data. My streaming quality setting using mobile data is set to basic, and streaming on WiFi is set to HQ. However when streaming using mobile data playback is still HQ. In fact playback is always HQ no matter what. What I did not try yet is setting everything to basic quality and than trying to see if data consumption is lowered. I'll try that and see if it works
Reinstalled the app turned off wifi played 2 sec of a song data usage after that:
Ok, so I turned data usage on Deezer app temporarily and played 15 seconds of a song via mobile data.Here are the screenshots:Data usage prior to using Deezer; streaming 15 seconds of a song: data usage after using Deezer on mobile data: Deezer settings screenshot: everything is set to HQ except mobile data screenshot of my version of Deezer app: screenshot of my Deezer subscription plan: screenshot of my phone’s android version: Hope this helps. If not I can set my system language to English later and do this all over with screenshots in English.
Hi guys, thank you for a quick reply. I am using the latest Android version on Xiaomi Redmi 8T mobile phone.Here is a screenshot of data usage, it being streaming two songs and a Songcatcher once. Since then I disabled mobile data until the bug gets fixed. As I wrote in a previous message, streaming on mobile data is set to standard, WIFI and Chromecast to HQ.
