BluOS app error message


Hi, All,

I am all of a sudden getting a constant error message and music stops playing on my Bluesound Icon. The error message reads: 

Player Notification

Error: unexpected EOF

Qobuz:19906020

Most often the music will not play I keep hitting ok and nothing. INCREDIBLY frustrating!!

I am going Ethernet from Icon to TP Link adapter. Never used to have this issue and now it is constant. UGGHHHHH

 

Any idea what’s going on here?

@macg19 Ill give that a shot-thank you so much! The funny part is Qobuz has never responded to me. Bluesound has and suggested a factory reset of the Icon. I was hesitant to try that. I have been using Amazon Music with no issues so I knew it had to be a Qobuz thing. So did not want to do a reset of the Icon...Wondering if/when Qobuz issues get sorted out can we go back to HD? Because switching to CD limits playback quality, right?

I’ll try switching it in the AM and report back…thank you again @macg19!

My pleasure, hope it works for you. I doubt a factory reset will solve the issue, so yeah don’t do it. 

Yes the fix limits playback quality - which is why we use these platforms right!

I have pushed back again and asked for a timeline. If I hear anything I’ll report back.

In their defense, I have had zero issues prior and think they offer excellent products for the money. I do use an external DAC though but in terms of a streaming box with a good UX, tough to beat for the money, IMHO.

 

@macg19 So far so good! Been playing for 2 hours straight with no stoppages! Switched to CD this morning. Thank you, my friend! Sucks have to sacrifice quality, because as you say “that’s why we stream”…I too am using an outboard DAC and DDC bypassing Icon internals…

 

Guess we’ll keep checking on this Qobuz thing so we can get back to HD quality

Not surprised that the OP never heard from Qobuz.  Their CS is terrible.  I haven’t owned Bluesound for many years.  My Customer Support experience with them was better, not perfect, but at least it’s nice to see that they communicated with the OP.

  I don’t use Amazon Streaming either, despite being a Prime Member, but this would seem like a good time for the OP to at least explore the service 

Thanks @mahler123  this is exactly why I did explore Amazon Music. Don’t love it, but at least it plays without issue…and yes Bluesound has been super supportive. Even if suggesting factory reset might help, many thanks to @macg19 I did not perform the reset. And since switching to CD no issues whatsoever so far-again many thanks to @macg19
 

Guess I’ll ride this out til Qobuz gets their heads out of their a$$es. Sure would have been nice to see a blast from Qobuz about this. DEFINITELY HUGELY disappointed in their CS. They don’t care and that’s a shame because there are choices now…
