Hello,

While trying to download 24bit/192khz songs from Tidal it seems like Tidal-dl new gen can only download up to 48khz I think it is MQA (same with Yaronzz's tidal-dl)

Here you can see the track is 24/192 image

after I've downloaded it using your GUI image

I put it into foobar2000 image

and it shows up as being 48000hz

It would be cool if you could fix up Tidal-dl new gen and support the downloading of Tidal hi-res lossless and not being directed to mqa instead.

If this is a user issue please let me know how to fix it, it'll be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your report. Do you have the tidal max plan? Can you post the link of the song so I can try to re-produce it?

Song is https://tidal.com/browse/track/68646787

The downloaded Song is indeed an MQA song, which gets upscaled from 24 bits/48kHz to 24 bits/192kHz. file file_mqa

I don't think there can be done much, as the download is handled by the tidalapi package and not this downloader itself.

The only way to get true 24 bits/192kHz FLACs is by grabbing a token from the official application itself. 3rd party applications via browser login (like this one) only get 24 bits/48kHz max. See this issue

I think I know why this happens. Only the following devices are allowed to download MAX: https://tidal.com/supported-devices?filter=hires-flac

Thus, I need a client_id and the client_secret of one of these devices to be able to enable this app to download MAX. This needs some serious reverse engineering. Let me see, what I can do.

I also do not have a TIDAL MAX plan, which makes it hard for me to test.

Does anybody know a TIDAL GitHub project, which is able to download with MAX resolution?

exislow commented 9 months ago

I think I have found the solution. But I need a temporary TIDAL MAX account to finish development. It would be really helpful, if anybody likes to donate something / create me a temporary family account with a TIDAL MAX subscription to be able to finish this issue.

Thanks a lot! I did, just waiting for you to confirm my friend request.

rgnet1 commented 9 months ago

Oh I don't think I got it. Put a dot in front: .rumz

I forgot discord does that
