Logitech is closing mysqueezebox servers

@coypu It's apparently an identified bug. But even if MP3 128k CBR is indicated it seems that FLAC is used (so just a problem of information displayed).

@coypu Thank you to have found the error.Unfortunately it's not possible to modify a message (unless I'm mistaken). I wish I could change the URL and indicate the correct one...

LMS 8.5.0 is the release that no longer includes links to mysqueezebox.com servers.

@coypu On the LMS tab of the piCorePlayer web interface, you need to select the development branch and then click on update and do the manual update.

I can also confirm that a solution has been found and works, thanks to Philippe44 and Michael Herger. It allows squeezebox and squeezelite users to access Deezer without the need of mysqueezebox.com servers. They developed a new Deezer Plugin for LMS, all this running without the mysqueezebox.com servers.Please note that a Deezer paid account is required.For the moment it seems that the easiest way to install the new LMS plugin is as follow:Install / Upgrade to LMS 8.5.0 Use the standard LMS web interface; go to the ‘Plugins’ section / tab (“Plugins” / “Manage Plugins”) At the very end of the plugin list, you will find an “Additional Repositories” section → add the following repository URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/philippe44/lms-deezer/main/repo/repo.xml Click on the “Save Settings” button located in the bottom left Refresh the page and you should see the new Deezer plugin listed at the very end of the plugin list Tick the box and Click on the “Save Settings” button located i

We’ll probably see more People here after the 19th of march (shutdown of the mysqueezebox.com).I'm sure that a number of concerned users don't express their opinion as long as everything's running smoothly.

For People using third party audio system (Squeezebox, Wiim, Sonos, Bluesound, Heos, MusicCast...), you have seen that fonctionalities are really limited compared to what you have with the smartphone/tablet Deezer App. To get the same level of functionalities, it implies that Deezer develops a larger set of API. This is also what I am asking for.

And mysqueezebox.com currently communicates with Deezer to allow the squeezebox  / Squeezelite users access to the Deezer service.Logitech decided to stop running the mysqueezebox.com servers…So the goal is to be able to access to the Deezer service via local LMS knowing that a community is maintaining the LMS software.I am not sure that this implies new Deeze API.It's perhaps a matter of authorizations from Deezer to access to the audio flows / the appropriated API from the local LMS. An expert would be able to confirm.What I have understood is that the Public API only allow to access to metadata within an Internet brosser.

I am precisely using a Raspberry with piCorePlayer.PiCorePlayer is based on a very small Linux Distribution which is piCore Linux. It includes Squeezelite, a software that emulates a Squeezebox (Logitech's historical music player last sold more than 10 years ago). Squeezelite also exists for other plateform (PC for ex.).Logitech Media Server (LMS) is the server software that powers networked audio players from Logitech (historical Squeezebox players) and also the emulated ones. You can install LMS on a NAS, a PC, a Raspberry at home. If you have for ex. a PC with music files and LMS installed on it (a local LMS) and squeezebox devices, you will be able to play the music files on your squeezebox and also access to on-line music services (configured on your local LMS). Logitech also runs on-line LMS (~ mysqueezebox.com), probably the only LMS available at the begining (you were buying Squeezebox devices and only using the on-line LMS), today used to access to on-line music services thar

Many thanks @Leonídia.Deezer I am not really sure that our wish implies new security questions / issues.Indeed, Deezer is used to communicate with different third party audio systems like Sonos, Bluesound…Moreover If we focus on Squeezebox/Squeezelite players, currently and still for a few days to come, Deezer ‘communicates’ with the LMS “mysqueezebox.com” servers. So not sure that it will be so different with the wished plugin. And not really sure that what is wanted from Deezer is a plugin because it seems that the “community” has talented people able to develop a plugin (Michael Herger, Philippe44 on the slimdevices forum). What is probably more a necessity is what I summarized in the thread I wrote and which you forwarded to your product team (i.e. exhaustives and accessibles API).Offering exhaustives and accessibles API will satisfy users :of third party audio systems (Sonos, Bluesound, Wiim, Heos, MusicCast...) because it will allow to benefit from the same level of functionaliti

Hello,Thank you for your idea!IMHO, It’s better to ask for public APIs that cover all the functionalities offered by Deezer or any kind of solution allowing to get the same result. Why? By doing that you offer a lot of possibilities to the communitie. Moreover It will probably touch more Deezer users as it will allow to solve several issues:Allow third party Hifi Devices (Sonos, Bluesound, Wiim, Denon, Octavio, Sonoro, Nuprime, Triangle, Zidoo...) to benefit from all the Deezer functionalities → This point touches quite a lot of people. Currently, on third party devices, the Deezer functionalities are really poor compared to what you have with the smartphone/tablet app. The use of Deezer via the existing Logitech Squeezebox The use of Deezer via Squeezelite → For devices like Raspberry Pi and all the devices on which you could use Squeezelite The use of Deezer on Raspberry Pi directly without Squeezelite and LMS or any other devices with the appropriated app (to be developped)You also

And if you add the recent design change (What an awful logo, It looks like the logo of a low cost dating site)...

I also have the same issue… If it’s not resolved, I will switch to Spotify. Spotify seems to support more devices and/or in a better way.I am also disappointed because of the lack of functionalities when using Deezer with a third party device. I also have a Sonos system but precisely looking for another solution, and It was the same thing. I also read posts of other users speaking about the same limitations on different third party devices (For ex. just the general/standard Flow, not all the different flows…). A lot of the things you find on the Deezer smartphone app, and mainly the value-added ones, are missing. It seems that the APIs are not taking into account all the Deezer functionalities.

Deezer x Sonos

I have used different Sonos devices during several years.I am disappointed by the lack of functionality offered when using deezer with the Sonos App compared to the functionalities you get when using the Deezer App (for ex., where are the different sorts of Flow...).It seems to be the same thing on any third party devices.Not a good point for me when you pay and do not benefit from all the value added functionalities. It’s furthermore the case when you like to discover new artists, titles…I also realized that always needing a smartphone, a tablet or a PC, is not as easy, as natural, as using an old hifi system, accessible to anyone directly (Friends, Children, Grand Parents). Why not including a nice 7” / 10” touch screen to make the devices totaly autonomous?Because of that I am really thinking about other solutions, streaming services…

API: Access to the "different Deezer Flows"

I spoke of my system based on Raspberry Pi but I also use Sonos and it's the same issue. I think that as soon as you use a third-party system, functionalities are limited... There's a lot of think that you do not have not just the different 'flavour' of 'Flow'.

Linux needs a native client for Deezer!Replied by Deezer

Well, I don’t belive there’ll Deezer for Linux. Deezer will not work on the Desktop App anymore. I guess some time will be maintained and then it’ll be discontiuned. In this case I will probably cancel my subscription and look for somerhing else (Spotify seems to be supported by a lot of different devices). My aim is to have a stand-alone player that doesn't require a wireless connection or the use of a smartphone. A Raspberry pi with a touch screen meets this need.
