tidal-media-downloader's Issues

TMP files not being removed.

When downloading an album, all the temp files are remaining, leading to a double up of songs.

Crash When Downloading A Compilation

Trying to download https://tidal.com/album/79131560 which consists of two volumes and a total of 60 tracks

Album Art For Individual Tracks/Playlists

Currently songs downloaded, either individually or in a playlist do not have any artwork associated with them.
Does the API provide you with artwork for individual tracks?
If so, could you add it?

Get StreamUrl Err! ?

ffmpeg.exe is in windows/system32 + root of AlbumDL.exe (i.e. C:\Tidal\TIDALDL-CMD\bin\Debug)

How to solve?

Song Metadata doesn't include Year or Track #

The metadata for a song doesn't include its release date or track #, even if it is available in the AlbumInfo.txt

Error Downloading Playlist - File Not Found

Hello,
There is an error with downloading playlist ID: c5d550f5-4c5b-454f-8ab0-16a045ba7149

Not sure how to describe this bug.

Hello,
I got this with the latest version.
It automatically looped, displaying Title, Song Num and asked me if I want to redownload.
When I said no, I was returned to the main menu after it performed the checks.

File 0 byte after download album finished

when i was finished download album, why file songs empty and i look this all size file tracks was 0 byte
I'm running on kubuntu 18.04 with python 3, cause when i run in python 2 still error no request module.

Song is overwritten

On the cli version (GUI not tested) when downloading an album and the album contains 2 songs with the same title the first downloaded song is overwritten by the second. Example: https://tidal.com/album/58767670. The first 2 songs in the album are overwritten because there are 2 songs later in the album with the same title. I tried to fix that and make a pull request but I am not there yet, its new ground for me. So its probably easier for you to fix it. I would suggest just adding a number to the end.

Gui download

Hi, it's work super!, but sometime don't download one song from album, when I try download again, them don't download the same song..
I can't download only specific song..
But, maybe when you add feature, alow download only one file at the moment maybe solve this problem.

Videos Downloading At Extremely Low Quality (Gui)

When downloading videos from gui they download at extremely 320 x 180. I've attempted to download 3 videos so far (Yeezy Season 3,4, and THat Part) and they've all downloaded at the same resolution.

Default extension should be FLAC instead of M4A

Hi!
Shouldn't the default extension be ".flac" instead of ".m4a"?
MediaInfo shows invalid ext. and displays what it should be... FLAC.

When I edit the extension to ".flac" it plays aswell.

Crashes when trying to download videos

TIDAL-GUI. Crashes when trying to download videos

Little errors and features requests

Thank you for this great app!
It works great, but got sometimes errors when I download an entire album.
The concurrent downloads are 3: with this setting, several tracks gots errors and are not downloaded completly.
If I set the concurrent download do 1 track at time, the same tracks are downloaded correctly.
I suggest to set the "ThreadNum" to 1 by default.
In the last GUI i found that "Cancel" button got the wrong name (is "Cancle"!).

Suggestions.

1. Could you introduce the download of both albums and tracks from Tidal's URL?

2. In settings could you introduce a Path format for albums? Something like this:
   {AlbumArtistOrArtist} - {Album.Title}/{DiscNumber}{TrackNumber:00} {Title}
   (I copied this string from Athame settings...)
   Even if it is too "expensive" to introduce this string so that it can be modified by the user, it would already be a good result if the format of the saved files has at least the track number at the beginning, otherwise the files will not be correctly sorted in the folder.

Thank you!

ffmpeg merger error

Hi, so when I was trying to download one video in particular, it downloads 100% of the video then it appears with an error saying ffmpeg merger error and on another song it has had an error of Decrypt-SetMetaData failed. Is there any fix for this?

Can't Download Video Playlist

Hello,
I get an error when downloading a playlist of videos

Partial video download

Hi, I tried downloading "Bastille - Quarter past midnight Live at the Albert Theatre" video, but when I play it, it is missing the last 30 seconds of video

Individual Songs Downloading Extremely Slow (Gui)

I'm not sure if this is a actual issue or something that's simply part of tidal and the gui (or something that's just wrong with my computer/ connection), But when downloading individual songs it can take upwards of 5-10 minutes on a connection with around 30 mbps. I've downloaded multiple songs and they all seem to have this issue.

Crash - Album Name Contains Non-Ascii Character

Hello,
I was trying to download Avicii's Album AVĪCI (01).
I believe the Ī is causing the crash due to an encoding problem.

Not quite sure.
Great software btw, really saved me a lot of money and time.

BUG - Songs with different names interpreted as same song.

Here Song 3 and Song 17 have a different name

However, here in the .txt file, they have the same name

This results in an incomplete and buggy download:

As can be seen, metadata is missing for "Lights of Home" and track 3 is overwritten by track 17.
The album ID is : 81952604

No metadata

When I download a playlist, there is no metadata in the files.
Am I doing something wrong, or is it not implemented?

no hi-res on cli version

Why not introduce the hi-res quality mode in the cli version?
And why ther isn't the "Download ArtistAlbum" in the gui version?

EDIT:
I've noticed that adding 3 album in the download list in the gui, tidal-gui will crash

Nothing works from menu (CLI)

Hello,

today i tried a new version of CLI 2019.7.11.1 and found out erroneous behavior in selection within menu "Choice". Any choice does nothing and give you back to the default view. See attached screenshot. My OS is Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview Build 18932.rs_prelease.190628-1650. Thanks for check and possible repair.

Is there a way to have it ?
Thanks

Playlist capped at 100 tracks

D/ling a playlist is capped at 100 tracks.

To replicate: Try any playlist that's larger than 100.
Possible solution: Athame doesn't have this issue. If u want source to inspect, let me know.
Possible solution 2: Maybe a '&limit=999' will do the trick?
e.g.: https://listen.tidal.com/v1/search/playlists?query=bruce&limit=999&token=4zx46pyr9o8qZNRw&countryCode=US

Too much errors

Hi what i must make to my tidal or programm to stop have errors when i try to download a full album i receive from 14 songs 5 errors or more ... Can i choose to download them 1 by 1 or in lower speed or something else ? Thank you !

Error Recovery/Resume Download

Have had the program crash/exit midway and when I start it up again it starts redownloading from the beginning of an album. Could keep track of last successfully downloaded track for an album and either auto-resume or resume when same album ID is provided.

Album tag for artist

Albums downloaded using tidal-gui does not show all artist for tracks with more than one artist

Error Downloading 2 Tracks - NWA Straight Outta Compton (49820183)

Error downloading N.W.A Straight outta Compton 2 tracks:

Album ID: 49820183

Track 2: F*ck tha police 5:45
Track 8: Express yourself 4:25

The files play fine in the webplayer so they are on the server.

support download video from tidal with tidal media downloader UI

can you add support to the UI version?

tidal_dl: Re-tagging HI_RES files loses tags

I believe by using AudioSegment.from_file will remove existing tags from the file including "ORIGINALSAMPLERATE" and "ENCODER" tags from HI_RES file that is needed by a few MQA decoders to decode it properly. Is there anyway to retain the existing tags?

Playlist file overwrite

When downloading a playlist songs get overwritten due to file naming. (tidal-dl.exe)

For example when multiple remixes (versions) are in the same playlist.
Please add a option to use the metatag as file name. (i.e. Artist - Tracktitle Version.flac)

Also no cover art included when downloading playlist.

Unable to delete or restart downloads with errors (Gui)

The cancel button simply doesn't work, Restarting is the only fix.

Cannot go back after selecting Album

Hello,
the program interprets '0' as an album instead of going back

Can't download from CLI

I tried installing it with PIP and when I try to download an album it says:
[ERR]Get AlbumInfo Err! countryCode parameter missing. Get operation err!

The same happens when I use the normal exe version.
Where can I get this missing parameter from?

I noticed that when trying to download using the GUI some songs of the album say "ERR" and don't download, but then I changed the number of threads to one and it worked, not sure if it's because of some timeout. Also, I have a question. Is the "HI-RES" option the same as the "Master" quality?

Video doesn't save after download.

When downloading a video, the download will complete however the video isn't saved in the directory.

tidal gui does not detect ffmpeg and does not save the videos

the video is completely downloaded but when coding it to a single file it does not do it even if 64bits or 32bits ffmpeg is installed and the temp files that are .TS are deleted

Get AlbumInfo Err! ?

(Only sometimes) GetAlbumInfo Err! shows.
Any idea?
Region-block or metadata character issue?
