Tidal Login Failed

[PeterSt]

I was using Tidal before RAM-OS, this is the first time I`m trying with RAM-OS

Maybe your password is wrong. I recall that happened before ...

Music PC is in another room, W10, Build 10240 

XX 2.04 is installed, activated with my old code (i got the message "Done")

Impossible that it is activated. And when not, that is at least a reason to not being able to login to the Tidal service. But notice that you initially don't complain about that Music Server PC.
Additionally, if that PC is coincidentally 32 bits (OS) then it requires 2.04c.

Notice that you wrote this too, yesterday :

Music PC:  W10, no problem to login to Tidal with XX 2.04

But today you write this :

when i do that i get error messages:

1.Error opening SettingPreset file
2.Something wrong at initializing Sound Device

So our communication is a total drag today.

Do this, and don't do anything else or else I again won't understand :

1. Go to you other room with the Music Server PC;
2. Prepare an album from Tidal on that PC.
3. Tell me what happened.

(next steps will follow after your response)

Nothing happens when i search for a artist in Tidal

It looks like XX is not activated.

When i try to use PayPal i get this mesage:  couldn't find any proof of you using any of the playback features on this PC.

[PeterSt]

Good.

We will get there now ! just step by step (if that's OK with you). Now :

That motherboard will have an audio device too. Select it (if not already) and try whether it works with 2x upsampling and a random album. Don't forget to switch off "Is NOS1". No need to get real sound from it, as long as the time cursor starts running. Just Attended (well, like how you do it always).

If you keep on receiving error messages it will be about your MoBo supporting 48KHz "base" only. You may then want to switch on "96 Khz or192 KHz Only" (in DAC Settings).
Or find a 24/96 album (and maybe not upsample now).

Play a bit as usual.
Go to PayPal, as usual.

When i came to PayPal i got this message: it appear that your PC is not configured tor htpp:usage

Windows 10 Tutorials - Make Internet Explorer available ...

Remember ?
You spend a nice larger topic on this. No need to find it I guess because you will know now.

[PeterSt]

Btw, by now that Tutorial has changed for 10586.0 but possibly for 10240 counts the same - I just don't know. Try it.

[Tore]

OK Peter, now XX is activated and i can search in Tidal

[PeterSt]

Very well done.

Now you "Prepare" that album from Tidal and of course you will know where you put it. Thus now the last step :

On the Audio PC find it, like you do with your normal Albums.
And then press Play ...

Thanks Peter, it is working

But my Music PC is in 2.floor, Tidal will not be much  used this way

Tore,

What you forgot in that case, is remote control the Music Server PC which in itself remote controls the Audio PC.

Tablet -> Music Server PC -> Audio PC.

To keep in mind : what you were heading for is making the Audio PC completely lean. I mean, this is why you set up the Music Server PC in the first place and the reason you are using the RAM-OS (don't forget to remove the disk after booting).

Of course I am not telling (ordering) you to do it like this but this is the way we talk about it all the time. But possibly this is also how the confusion started yesterday, because your way seems to be to do it (Tidal) directly from the Audio PC, which of course is possible (once you can login there ) but which then requires Internet Connection, the firewall stuff, maybe anti-virus and what not. This is all against good sound.

Notice that if the tablet is too inconvenient at times (and I can imagine that) then you can perhaps use a laptop (with WiFi) to the Music Server PC. Or, run cables for monitor and mouse and keyboard from the PC from the 2nd floor to your listening room (they can all be 15 meters long and it will still work).

Summarized :
For example I myself never have a keyboard and mouse and monitor attached to the Audio PC. So that is the base. I think your base is a bit upside down from that.
Another thing could be that the idea that the Music Server PC can be way out of sight, is only about that but not about its Monitor and such. You *use* that PC quite explicitly, for Tidal. I do the same. And my case : the Music Server PC indeed is on another floor and I indeed use those 15 meter long cables to it. As a matter of fact, right now I am typing at that one. And when music starts later today, I bring the task forward with the remote connection (see scheenshot below) and next I go to the tablet which controls this very PC I am typing at, thus controlling the same screen but which now shows the Audio PC.

Regards,
Peter

The disk is removed from my Audio PC.

But i still use a monitor and bluetooth keyboard/mouse

I have tried many times to get  remote control working but gave up.

I will try again another day


Tore

[PeterSt]

Ok. Then that other day open a topic for it;
We will work it out together, step by step and after that I will make a tutorial of it.
Why not right away ? because in my view all is fairly straight forward and besides that in tutorials already. So I must first learn where you get stuck. Ok ?
And it is allowed to be stuck right from the very first step. No problem !
