Does anyone know whether you can transfer offline content stored on an SD card to a different device?

Nope - the files dowloaded onto the SD card on one phone are locked to the phone on which tidal is installed - won't work anywhere else. You can have 3 offline devices at any one time I believe.

Did anybody notice sometimes there are albums with songs greyed out? It's weird, I would have thought if Tidal has the album they have the whole album. But no, sometimes you see albums where all the songs are listed but some songs are greyed out and can't be played.

it seems that it depends on regional restrictions stuff

I have seen this also, and sometime it is temporary almost like they pull a file and replace it (just speculation)

Thanks guys. Incredible what the world has come to.

It depends on the copyright of the album in your country.
Another strange issue: I enjoyed very much Ryan Adams' Live at Carnegie Hall album which was a Master album for a while, but later it was downgraded to HIFI.
I do not think it is a copyright issue.

^ This greying thing can be seen in soundtracks quite often. sometimes there are just a few songs that can be played...

Hello from Czech Republic

I didn't see for the music I listened to yet, but I did read comments that sometimes albums come and go on Tidal. Maybe other services too. I don't know why they do this. I guess maybe their marketing licensing blah blah blah changes. For us it's annoying and unacceptable.

We have to start taping off the air so we will have the albums when they disappear

check "Jackie Brown"-soundtrack:

Tidal are citing MQA support for iOS 'soon' - I wonder how this is going to work with things like the lightning -> 3.5mm dongle and my iSine's with the cipher cable?
Questions like this push the concept of 'soon' to 'God knows' in my book.

Hi nixternal-I have the iDSD Nano BL. If you also have the Nano (wasn't sure if you had that one or one of the other BL's) and you want the full MQA rendering, you should have Passthrough MQA set to OFF in the Tidal desktop app.

The Nano BL needs the software in the Tidal desktop app to do the first unfold of the MQA stream and the Nano will do the second unfold and render the full MQA stream. Assuming you have the 5.3 or 5.3C firmware installed on your Nano BL, you'll get the magenta light when it's fully rendering the MQA stream. That's not to say that you may not be getting better sound quality just giving the Nano the full undecoded MQA stream without the first unfold, as everyone's systems and ears are different!

I have the iFi Micro DSD BL, the Meridian Explorer2 plus dacs in my Naim Uniti, Marantz Streamer and Cambridge Audio CD Player and use Audirvana. Sound preference iFi Micro / Meridian Explorer2 via Audirvana / Explorer2 via Tidal / Naim Uniti via Audirvana / Cambridge SACD / Naim Uniti via Tidal / Marantz via Audirvana. The iFi Micro BL is significantly better than the others for Tidal and marginally better as outboard DAC for Cambridge SACD player. Crisper, tighter base and generally more insightful.

Greeting all:

Curious how many of you are using Tidal via its native interface vs Roon or some 3rd party integrator. My interest is solely sound quality: I'm using my laptop, which is feeding Tidal to my CD player (which can also be used as a separate DAC), over to my amp and speakers.

I have a love hate relationship with ROON, enough to question all the praise heaped upon it by others. 9 months until my subscription expires, personally my worst purchase.

But these are my experiences, I therefore use Tidal and Qobuz via their native apps on Win 10/MacBook via either my iFI Nano BL or Chord Mojo.
If mobile I tend to use UAPP with the iFI Nano or mConnect via Chord Mojo/Poly. My preference is the Mojo/Poly implementation.
