[Feat]: Support Tidal Masters about docker-lidarr-extended HOT 9 CLOSED

Just keep in mind, if you restart the docker, the scripts are overwritten. So either make a copy of the script and move its location to run manually. Or disable auto-run, edit and run manually for testing.

This is configured to use the "4" api key by default:

from docker-lidarr-extended.

I'll try that as a temporary experimentation. If that works, I'll create a PR for you!

from docker-lidarr-extended.

What your asking for I don't think is possible, due to client limitations and difficulty to authenticate. PR welcome if you know how to make it work.

from docker-lidarr-extended.

Honestly, I manage everyday to download with tidal-dl Master quality. I'm Using API Key number 4 (4 Android Auto-Normal/High/HiFi/Master) and AudioQuality set to AudioQuality.Master. The required subscription is the highest, though.

I don't really see the difficulty, and I'll try to make it work. But could you detail the issues encountered (or expected to encounter), so I can study and bypass them?

Edit:

Will try adding the following condition to Audio.sh. Keeping you update.

if [ "$audioBitrate" == "master" ]; then
			tidalQuality=Master
			deemixQuality=flac

Still seems like master doesn't work... ?

So you should be sure to check that it actually works...

This issue is a non-issue. That's not how MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) works.

Taking this as an example: https://tidal.com/browse/track/221531214
The result of MediaInfo after tidal-dl download in Master Quality is:

Format                                   : FLAC
Format/Info                              : Free Lossless Audio Codec
Duration                                 : 4 min 11 s
Bit rate mode                            : Variable
Bit rate                                 : 1 732 kb/s
Channel(s)                               : 2 channels
Channel layout                           : L R
Sampling rate                            : 48.0 kHz
Bit depth                                : 24 bits
Compression mode                         : Lossless
Stream size                              : 52.0 MiB (100%)
Writing library                          : Mutagen 1.45.1

However, once MQA is decoded, here is the real Sampling rate:

  #     Encoding        Name
  1     MQA 192K        Ornette Coleman - Invisible.flac

So, on my end, that works. I'm trying to do the mod right now!

from docker-lidarr-extended.

Give 1.0.298 a try, see if that works, I've not personally tested it...

from docker-lidarr-extended.

I'm closing this because it's implemented, but not actually sure its working in practice. Either way, nothing I can do about it...

from docker-lidarr-extended.

Hey @RandomNinjaAtk,

I tested by modifying the HiFi by Master, and it actually works! I have to check out that the regain step that you do doesn't break the MQA encoding with some releases. For now, it doesn't seem it did.

However, while downloading an album, it seems that sometimes the script selects other songs from oether releases that aren't available in MQA (a bit of Tidal's fault).
