by the looks of the url you tried to download, you cannot get entire artist's discography using this program. nor you should, because it's not what you want trust me.

Nope,just happened yesterday,the program has the function of downloading whole albums by artist's link.Maybe just network error,occasionally.

Just to be clear: yes, downloading artist links is supported as documented in the wiki. The current implementation of downloading artist links simply gets all releases which the selected artist is involved in. This is the default set of results that the Qobuz API returns.

In the example given here, the problematic album is https://play.qobuz.com/album/x1l9ir9a5o0xc => Lyssa Coulter - Red (Swemo's Version). In this album, Taylor Swift is the composer:

As is shown in the image above, this album is not released yet at the time of this message. My guess is that when @jasonwilliam12580 encountered the error, the album link was already listed in the Qobuz catalogue, but the page itself wasn't live yet (hence the API error stating No result matching given argument).

At the current moment, however, the page is live and a 30 second preview of the album is online and this means the API can find the page just fine. However, I expect that there still is a error logged indicating that the track isn't available for streaming.

@jasonwilliam12580 When you encountered the API error, did the entire Artist download job end, or did it just log the error for that album and continued on? If the job stopped, that's a bug and I'll need to investigate further (although it will be hard to find an example to reproduce). If the job continued past the error, this is expected behavior and there isn't a bug, just an unreleased album where the Qobuz catalogue was "out of sync" for a period of time as the upcoming release was being added...
