Hi So this Easter I decided to try this Tidal feature. It was working at the start of the week, but over time some songs have started stopping with a DRM related error. This seems to follow the song itself as opposed to the platform, which is what I would expect if I had any DRM issues. I have trie…

I also listen to TIDAL tracks that have been added to my library and it works fine. So it’s happening on other clients such as Android or iOS? When it fails on those devices, does Plex through an error or does it just not play audio? Chrome should be using Widevine for the DRM. So, make sure you…

Widevine works and is detected per the logs. It complains about the license that’s undefined when things fail. When things works appropriately it says “Resolving DRM license /library/parts/3006318-LOSSLESS/license”. On the other devices I either get a similar DRM error as mentioned in earlier posts …

[image] Anderstn: Still with the problem occurring across all platforms I would guess resolving it one of them would resolve it across all of them. I’m starting to agree. [image] Anderstn: The question though is what is this DRM license and where is it stored or generated. Is it on the m…

No worries. I’m grateful for the help. If you come across something similar on the forums share it, but don’t spend any extra time on this. I have searched through them myself and I’m sure if something fairly obvious was there I would have found it already :wink:

This is still ■■■■■■■ however I have noticed that a lot of the time logging out and back in to plex.tv fixes the issue. That said how long the fix lasts depends. Sometimes it can go minutes and sometimes days. Seems to me like the license that suddenly goes missing , see earlier logs for context, is…

Is this at all similar to what you were experiencing? [image] Albums playable on Tidal.com, but not through Plex Online Media Sources I have a Plex Pass and a Tidal subscription through Plex. However, I’ve had this situation creep up a lot lately. Albums appear on Tidal…

Sadly from what I can tell it’s not the same issue. For one thing the errors I get are usually DRM related and when that doesn’t happen it usually just fails without any explanation. Also it does not seem tied to specific albums on Tidal and appears random although adding any track to my Plex librar…

I’m finding the same thing, random Tidal albums won’t play through Plex. For example I added the latest Menzingers album last week and all was fine, yesterday it wouldn’t play in any Plex app. I’ve tried picking random artists and some albums play other don’t. Another example is Red Hot Chilli Pe…

@Anderstn , I concur my issue in that other thread is probably not related. But I wanted to commend you & @Noah0504 for an excellent effort and persistence to find a solution. You’ve done more legwork & hypothesizing that most others. I can’t think of anything that you haven’t already tried. Seri…

Once again thanks to anyone trying to help me out here. As for the DRM errors they still pop up seemingly at random during playback. So to whomever is responsible for this integration at Plex HQ I would like to extend a middle finger for ignoring those of us who struggle with this “feature” of Plex. …
