HI,
It's really good to see this version of the Qobuz Desktop.

One problem. I've tried building my own with npm, and installing the deb. In neither version can I see the download option. This is one of the main reasons for installing the Desktop.

I don't know iof this is relevant, but when building my own I got these warnings:

npm WARN optional Skipping failed optional dependency /7zip-bin/7zip-bin-mac:
npm WARN notsup Not compatible with your operating system or architecture: [email protected]
npm WARN optional Skipping failed optional dependency /7zip-bin/7zip-bin-win:
npm WARN notsup Not compatible with your operating system or architecture: [email protected]

@nlarche, as far I know wrapping a web app into an Electron app is pretty trivial/easy, can you update this to work again? I don't know how do it and I really need this.

Note: I understand if you don't have time for this; this is just a request and if you don't have time I hope you can tell it.

I have not been using the app for about 2 months.
Now when I want to launch it, the app just shows a window that is completely white.
I tried a clean install on a different system, same there.

Did maybe some change on Qobuz side break the app?
Or am I the only one with this issue?

Edit: the .deb package seems to work fine, but when I download the source from the same release and run

npm install
npm start

I have this issue.

When buffering a new track, the progress bar for a track starts filling up, leading the user to believe that the track has started but no sound is coming out.

On the official web player, the play button transforms into a revolving on/off logo.

I think I installed qobuz-desktop-player:

It shows in the GUI menu, but nothing visible happens when I try it, and it coredumps instantly.

--> Maybe strace fails because there is no terminal version?

Here's one of the coredumps:

I'm afraid I'm beyond my depth here, and most of the things I see on the web to try don't seem to work with /opt/ instead of /usr/bin/... I'm happy to do any tests you need to understand this.

Sometimes when playing an album, a track will stay silent, then when the next track gets played sound starts again.

(kudos by the way for the desktop player!)
