Snakeoil Firmware - 1.1.3 (Blind Testing Update 3)

[alexkwok]

Hi, i try to use this url in M.A.L.P. without any success but i think there is a problem with the 1.1.3 update and MPD 0.21 because i cannot use MPD at all finally...
Actually, i reinstall snakeoil v1.1.1 with upmpdcli for using tidal with mconnect and bubbleupnp application (the last effective configuration in my case).

Are you saying, after adding in the Tidal configuration, MPD 0.21.5 is now broken for you? If yes, can you generate a diagnostic file and send it to me? Thanks.

Bubble UPNP have an interesting function for a better navigation with tidal, it is possible to use Tidal android application itself for searching/playlist management and share the stream through bubbleupnp (an icon appear in share menu).
It is possible to redirect the tidal stream to any upnp device recognized by bubble afterward (necessary to have a tidal account configured in bubbleupnp also). Maybe it can be an interesting way to have a tidal frontend and share the stream with MPD?
Apparently, the sound quality seems better directly with MPD. this is what i heard with my music files, i suspect it will be the same with tidal lossless stream.

Looking at how you're describing the workflow, the BubbleUPNP is the ideal configuration to go for Tidal <-> MPD integration. Bubble will create the Tidal URL and upmpdcli will send it to MPD. I'd double check upmpdcli later this weekend and see if I need to do anything extra to get this to work. 

Yes, that’s how I’m using Tidal through Upmpdcli and the reason why I asked how to choose the mpd version used by Upmpdcli. For Android, I’m using bubbleupnp, for IPad, I’m using Mconnect. Both works well for me.
