Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

[deaste]

In the Play Store in Italy there is not yet the updated version for Android.

I'm in Italy and got Qobuz beta 9.0.0.0 two days ago. Works perfectly with my Pro Plus.

Might be regional or phone play store differences - my Motorola Edge 30 updated to v9.0.0 in the UK on Sunday evening. Guess it'll appear soon globally.

Maybe try a delete and re-install - although that may remove any downloads/purchases

Only 8.6.1.1 available for me today. Do phones have different play stores?

Qoboz Android app update not yet available in UK. OK on Windows desktop.

Waited this long a few more days won't hurt.

Qobuz Android app update not available in Australia yet either. It's also OK in Windows Desktop.
It tends to take 3 day lag to hit Australia, judging from previous updates of Wiim Home or qobuz or any other app. So I expect we will get Qobuz version 9 out around Friday evening

It is now working perfectly on all of my devices.

I had both, the iOS version and the Mac version installed on my Mac. I was accidentally testing with the iOS version there; I uninstalled it and ran the Mac version that I installed the other day instead and it is working now. Also tested fine on Android tablet, Android DAP, iPhone, and iPad. Yippee!!!

Just a couple of weird things happening on my Android 15 phone:
a) randomly Qobuz goes on an apparent "freeze mode"where it seems the music is paused but its actually still playing (closing and relaunching the app fixes it so no big deal)
b) if for any reason i decide to stop the listening before the end of the playlist (erasing the queue changes nothing) my dac keeps playing the next songs because my wiim pro is still playing the playlist. This is quite annoying.. I'm forced to launch WHA and pause the music (i can't erase the queue on WHA) before shutting down the amp.
Anyone else?!

In the Qobuz app go to play queue, use the three dot menu on the top right, current list, clear play queue.

Even if you see All apps up to date, did you try See recent updates, updates available, check for updates?

Even if I'm not Maurizio. I'm doing this every hour. No success yet.

Im going to test the Connect funtion today..looking forward to it.
So great the connect function is there..

Thanks for your help but sorry if i wasn't clear: yep i select "clear play queue" on Qobuz but the problem is that if, after doing that, i try to launch wiim home the queue is still there (it has not been deleted and it's still playing through my external dac to the amp)

Re. (b), if the pause/stop button on the Qobuz app doesn't stop playback, I think it means the controller and renderer linkage has been broken, and so far I haven't found a way to restore it cleanly (as one can do on Tidal Connect, for instance). Stopping the stream on WHA works, as does rebooting the WiiM from WHA, which should also zap the queue. Or you can try connecting to the WiiM from another Qobuz controller (e.g., the desktop app on a PC or Mac, or another mobile device), which may or may not work in my experience. Be sure you report the problem to Qobuz whenever it occurs. I suspect it's already on their radar, but the squeakier the wheel...

Works perfectly.. wonderful
I'm using the qobuz app to connect can one still see the bitrate in the WHA?

So glad with this..

Yes; you can still confirm the bitrate by opening up WHA to look at currently playing.

Why should there be any difference? Streaming via QC is the same as streaming via WHA.

I'm wondering about that. When I do multiroom streaming through the WHA it's always limited to CD quality. When I stream via QC to grouped speakers, both the Qobuz app and the WHA are reporting HD resolutions. This is very nice if true, but I'm not sure why there is a difference.
