Official Qobuz Issues Thread

[Peter Hyatt]

Hi

 

40% to 50% is my early guess. I’ve only purchased one so far but as I price, most are near 1/2 off the general sellers of hi res that I frequent. 

 

Keep in mind the comparison at the same resolution.

delete app and reinstall worked for me.

It would be nice to replace or retract the obviously upsampled HiRes albums in your catalog as well.😉

 

 

What makes them obvious?

[Peter Hyatt]

I’ve purchased a dozen downloads thus far. 

 

Is musicscope difficuct to use?

 

i almost don’t want to ask but...

 

the genre of upsampled  wasn’t classical, was it!

[Peter Hyatt]

update:  Download purchased music issues today...

 

most are cutting out before download complete.  No wifi issues.

Go here https://www.qobuz.com/account on the desktop and you’ll have access to download everything you’ve purchased. 

 

 

Thank you.  It was not coming up on this page most of yesterday.  Late last night it did.  I appreciate the response. 

 

Perhaps it will slow me down from my rage to purchase?   

 

I am smitten with Qobuz.  The sound quality, choice, interface, recommendations, articles... wow.  I hope it is profitable in the US.

With a UK Sublime+ account, I’ve never found the remastered versions of the Dire Straits albums.

 

 

 

I have it in mine.

Do you have Peter a UK Sublime account or a US Beta?

 

 

The puzzling part is it only happens (to me at least) withing ROON not within the APP

 

 

 

 

I applogize for delay.  

 

Sublime. 

 

I did delete and reinstall app for iOS. 

 

I hope this helps.

My biggest issue is not enough hours in a day to enjoy this marvelous hi res streaming service. 

 

Well, that and buying too many downloads. 

[Peter Hyatt]

The search filters at the Download store are the best filters I have encountered for any online purchasing.  They are actually "smart" filters that anticipate the customers' needs.  

 

Qobuz continues to impress.  

 

Now if I could only stop purchasing downloads... 

 

Is there a Qobuz Rehab one can enter?

Given that virtually every classical album recorded for at least the last decade has been at high res, and Gramophone magazine reviews well over a hundred a month, this figure of under 2000 is self-evidently, as we in the UK like to say, bollocks.

 

Agreed. 

 

I’ve been adding new albums daily; almost all classical and almost all hi res. 

 

I’m over 3k and adding daily.  Perhaps 90% classical.  

 

Jud, my wife gave me two tix to see Mark Knopfler in August. I think he is meticulous in his recording...great attention to detail.

I don't have the album from HDtracks, so I cannot compare. Perhaps you should let judge your ear by comparing the HDtracks version with the CD. Back in 2015, I hadn't heard a difference between the 24/196 album available on Qobuz and my old ripped CD version. For this reason, I purchased the analysis tool Xivero MusicScope to verify my suspicion. The charts of the tracks showed that I can trust my ears; at least, sometimes 😉.

 

 

The more I pay for the download, the better my ears say the recording is. 

[Peter Hyatt]

I cannot download this album on MacBook Pro , though it is on my iPhone now and available for downloads elsewhere.  I pre paid it last month.

 

new Khatia release --

[Peter Hyatt]

Above Link goes generic 

 

it’s new album release from Khatia.  

 

Its on iphone and off line.  

 

It won’t download thru store.  

[Peter Hyatt]

Qobuz through Audirvana has been magical.        (Mac) 

[Peter Hyatt]

is website down?

 

After purchasing 3 releases, the download link is dead and "my account" reverts to "Beta version" main page 

[Peter Hyatt]

Question to those using Qobuz via new Aurdivana -- the new beta...

 

how do I get Qobuz to show up??

Have you clicked the Settings gear wheel toward the upper right and scrolled down the prefs page to find streaming services?

 

 

Yes; to no avail.  

 

I’ve  reverted to the older version —waiting for Beta to be worked out.  I’m a fan of Audirvana so I’m certain it’ll be fine.

Peter, am listening to QOBUZ (US) via Audirvana + ver 3.4.99.18 just fine. Try to delete the Beta and download the beta again. Perhaps a bad D/L. Has happened to me many times with various software downloads.

Good Luck.

 

Thanks.  I have done it now.  

 

When I hit the "Gear" icon and scroll down to streaming, it shows my Qobuz account properly.   It gives me the option to "Disconnect", so it is connected. 

 

Yet, where do I visibly see this on the main page of "Tracks, Albums Artists"? 

 

I know its got to be something seriously easy to spot!

Peter, click on the gear symbol next to the Audirvana banner. Then select Streaming. That is where the Qobuz sign in  is located. THEN Qobuz will appear on the left side panel below Library, favorites.

Have fun.

 

 

I have that.  

 

Where do I find the actual selections (visibly) of my favorites?

 

in the old version, it was on the left after scrolling down from my library list. 

 

Thanhs for your patience.

Thanks.  It was there all the time; I just had to move the left boundary in, to reveal it.  Hence, my gratitude towards the patient advisors. 

 

Is it advisable to delete the original Audirvana ?

[Peter Hyatt]

Thanks, Jud. 

 

How do you manage the filters? I checked "SoX" on the old version, but do not find it under preferences in the new. 

 

Also...for anyone--- if you use a good DAC (I am using Hugo 2), do you still use the forced upsampling or let the DAC do its magic?

 

 

[Peter Hyatt]

5.0.5 ?

 

I'd like to try!

[Peter Hyatt]

On my download list, it’s next to the .tar file. 

 

I hit .tar first and while waiting, download the artwork.
