Hi,

I have latest updated tidal-wave release 2024.1.9. But when I try to download this album. It gives this error message.

Hi Dev,

I am trying to install tidal-wave program on windows 10 based PC using this command python -m pip install tidal-wave. But facing below error.

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tidal-wave (from versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for tidal-wave

Instead of the correct fLaC file metadata tags

• TRACKNUMBER
• TRACKTOTAL
• DISC
• DISCTOTAL

, the lower-case version of the above are currently being written. These incorrect values are not picked up by Jellyfin, and probably won't be picked up automatically by other music server software, either.

Hi Dev,

As right now I have installed latest release of tidal-wave on windows based PC & using it. I use windows device access token to download hi-res lossless audio.

What I have experienced is slow download speeds which I never crossing 1.5 MB/s where as I have internet connection of bandwidth 80 MB/s.

Just a suggestion if it is possible to increase download speeds will be very helpful.

Thanks

Issue 1: Cryptographically Signing Release Artifacts

It seems to be rather poor practice offering release artifacts, and, in 2024, not to sign them!

Options To Solve the Issue

• PGP
• age
• minisign

Consideration

I already use GnuPG to sign all of my commits, so it would be natural to use that same signing key for this project's release artifacts...

Issue 2: Providing Checksums of Release Artifacts

There must be a GitHub action that automatically creates checksums of artifacts! (The most popular one only has 8 stars!?)

Options to Solve the Issue

At the very least

• MD5
• SHA256, for legacy and the fact that 2 to the 256 power is mind-bogglingly large
• BLAKE3 is the future (?)

Consideration

How difficult would it be to roll my own GitHub actions workflow that checksums and signs release artifacts, then adds new release artifacts containing the signatures of the binaries as well as a CHECKSUMS text file?

Hi,

Thanks for your app. I get an error when I try to use it.

Hi,
i tried to setup the completion in PowerShell 7.4.1, but I didn't manage to make it work. I'm using the tidal-wave_py311_pyapp.exe, I don't have Python installed on my system.
As it is, the code cannot work, of course, as the command called in scriptblock to extract the information is python -m tidal-wave.
I suppose that the environment variables there are just for debugging purpose. But there is a typo in one of them, as it has two spaces in it's name: $Env:_PYTHON _M TIDAL_WAVE_COMPLETE.
Is it possible to have this working with tidal-wave_py311_pyapp.exe, or it has to be used only on systems with installed Python?

When i tried to download a song, it refused to download cause no album cover is found:

Hi Dev,

I have installed tidal-wave latest binary by using this command python -m pip install tidal-wave[all] on windows 10 based PC. I tried to download this album https://tidal.com/browse/album/323681

Album totally has 21 tracks out of which 19 tracks got successfully downloaded. But when it program tries to download the tracks no - 20 & 21. A very long program crash error log comes in terminal.

So, I have uninstalled the tidal-wave & installed using below command python.exe -m pip install https://github.com/ebb-earl-co/tidal-wave/archive/trunk.zip. But issue remain same.

Have attached error in text file for ready ref.

Tidal_Error_Log.txt

Thanks

am I doing something wrong? How do I get the 8 or 12 channels?

cannot login with a hifi plus account. when i copy and paste the activation link into a browser i get the following message : FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified. please help

Up until this point, the only ARM64/aarch64 (TODO: figure out which is the "correct" term) offering for tidal-wave is an OCI (read: Docker) image built for both x86 64-bit and ARM 64-bit. It would be nice to "complete the set" insofar as having QEMU or similar in the GitHub Actions workflow to compile FFmpeg, use pyinstaller to create a release artifact.

Candidates:

• ARM Runner
• Run-On-Arch
• Self-hosted runner on Oracle

Not sure if this is an limitation of the API or this app, but if you try to download a playlist it will only grab the first 100 items.

Where do I enter it?

Hi,

I used this command tidal-wave https://tidal.com/browse/track/330931239 --audio-format hires to download the tracks in hi-res, as the track is availabe from tidal in 24bit / 96 khz. And it got download fine.

But when I check the downloaded file in spectrum analyzer it shows nothing above 20 khz

& when I check it with tool from this website https://losslessaudiochecker.com/ it shows the file is upsampled

Any views on this

I have logged in TIDAL desktop app & using FIDDLER EVERYWHERE to capture HTTPS traffic. And I am able to get my ACCESS TOKEN mentioned from https://login.tidal.com/oauth2/me

But I am getting error in program execution. Have attached text file with all errors. Or can you tell how to get ACCESS TOKEN

Thanks

After that I was experimenting only with that track. The command used to download the track was:

It also fails with the same error whne I use the absolute path, like c:\1
I'm not sure how to capture the stderr, so I don't kow what is FFmpeg complaining about.

Hi Dev,

I use this script to download ALAC, ATMOS, PLAYLIST from apple music https://github.com/zhaarey/apple-music-alac-atmos-downloader

But the script does not download selective track from album. Let assume if we have a album which has 10 tracks & I want to get only track no - 04. Here is the url from which I want to download track no - 04 https://music.apple.com/in/album/bajenge/1736449575?i=1736450031

So, I hope u can help on this if possible.

Thanks

In order to avoid writing audio or video files to disk with illegal characters (especially on Windows), a number of characters are replaced. This should only affect the file name on disk, not the metadata tag (TITLE for FLAC; \xa9nam for M4A), however this seems not to be the case.

For example, the song/album with the title "02:07" (as in, a time of day) is incorrectly specifying the track's title metadata:

Input #0, flac, from '01 - 02:07 [CD].flac':
  Metadata:

Notice that the ALBUM metadata value is unaffected; it's the TITLE value that is incorrect.

When adding the --no-extra-files flag in version 2024.2.1, it was overlooked that, in artist.py, the artist.Artist.get_albums() method failed to pass the no_extra_flags variable into album.Album.get_album() that is called inside.

Hi,

As earlier this bug was fixed due to ALBUM ID length. But now on latest release 2024.1.8

Again this error came

tidal-wave https://tidal.com/browse/track/42298 --audio-format atmos
2024-01-11:18:12:22,451 CRITICAL [main.py:70] Cannot parse 'https://tidal.com/browse/track/42298' as a TIDAL album, artist, mix, playlist, track, or video URL

The windows filesystem does not support certain characters like quotes. If songs contain these characters then the program stops and throws error OSError[Errno 22]. In some instances the quotes are removed but other times they are not.

Here's one song example which causes this error
https://tidal.com/track/233202975?u

On Windows 10 I have had issues recently with inputting the token when requesting a HiRes track.

Quick fix I found to work is replacing line 195 in login.py to access_token: Optional[str] = None if _token is None else _token.get("access_token").

This, as far as I'm aware, will fix the issue of 'AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get''.

Fixing this leads to issue #88. Sadly haven't found a fix for this yet.

I am using latest binary of tidal-wave. Have downloaded many hi-res FLAC tracks / albums using access token from android device. There was no issue faced.

But when I try to download this album error comes. I have used below command to download the album & included --loglevel option to debug. Log shows that URL is invalid but when I open the same URL in browser they are opening.

tidal-wave https://tidal.com/browse/album/66390838 --audio-format hires --loglevel debug

tidal-wave https://tidal.com/browse/album/67006305 --audio-format hires --loglevel debug

Error log is attached for further details.

Thanks

A good number of playlists on TIDAL from the TIDAL staff or similar "official" playlists contain a colon ":" in the playlist name. Windows does not accept these as valid file names, so make sure to swap out colons for " - " in file names.

I have tried to download an album in Atmos format using Windows pyapp container. But after getting the first audio file is sucessfully written, it exits with the following:

Thanks

As it stands, all TIDAL API requests that involve a limit parameter are capped at 100. This is because I am loath to attack the complexity that is pagination; i.e. requesting for the same resource if there are more than limit elements in either a playlist's track list, or a mix's track list, or even an album's track list.

Hi,

i got my token using the Windows Desktop App and Fiddler Everywhere.
Since the token is accepted, and some metadata files are downloaded I suspect this being a bug.
I use the docker-container and created the windows-token file and enter the token I got from fiddler.
Trying to download any music, i get this error:

Now that I have figured out how to compile FFmpeg on Windows, PyInstaller will be the tool used to create release objects. To this end,

1. Deprecate (only include in the next release) the PyApp binaries
2. Revamp .github/workflows/pyinstaller-*.yaml to cache compiled FFmpeg, version of Python3 (after 2024.4.1, Python 3.12 and FFmpeg 7)
3. Rewrite README.md and BUILDME.md with the new instructions and references

Hi Dev,

Hi,

As latest update is 2024.1.4. But when give pip install tidal-wave==2024.1.4 command on terminal. It gives below mentioned error.

pip install tidal-wave==2024.1.4

Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable

As videos are most likely always going to be H.264 + AAC stereo .mp4 files from TIDAL, the metadata around this is pretty well established. I am using as my guide:

• Tag Mapping table from Hydrogen Audio
• MusicBrainz Picard
• Kodi video file tagging

There is the mp4v2 tool, but mutagen handles all the tags so far, and adding another binary would be silly. So, read the above guides and implement as many of the tags as possible from the (limited) TIDAL API endpoints for music videos.

The Dockerfile in the repository root builds FFmpeg from source using its latest snapshot. The documentation is clear that this means that the Docker image should be licensed with the LGPL, and that documentation about it should be included in the release notes/documentation of the source code, as well as a copy of the source code.

How do I go about doing this correctly? Create a Git submodule for the project tracking FFmpeg? Any guidance here would be much appreciated.
