Tunefind Tidal previews don't work

Plex Server: 1.18.2.2041
Plex Web: 4.14.2
OS: Linux Mint 19.2

I do not have a Tidal account, but the Tunefind blog post says I should be able to play 30-second previews. Previews do play on the Tidal website.

Tidal albums are appearing under my movies, as expected, but when I try to play anything, I get the following error:

previews worked for me on IOS, so its not all clients

also I just checked plex web, and previews work for me there.

if you search for error h4, it was a common error when tidal was first added. I had it myself for awhile.

Wouldn’t you know, I saw this problem at work, and resolved to reproduce it at home, and report it. I got home, reproduced it, and wrote this post. Now it’s working. No idea what changed.

HATE it when that happens…
