ARC Build 222 Feedback

Hi @oleh

I have 1056 local albums and 808 in Tidal.

I had tried rebooting my core and restarting the ARC app on my phone several times but miraculously just as I had read your response I went into smart download and it downloaded an album in front of my eyes. It immediately seemed to start the next. This was just as I was going to bed last night.
This morning I noticed that the second album did not download:

But I just did another restart of the ARC app and as long as I keep the ARC app open on my phone it seems to download.

Actually it has now stopped at 9 albums and the smart download icon has now turned white again.

I briefly turned off the wifi on iOS and after turning it back on it says No Connectivity

It’s been a few days and I have to say FINALLY ARC is working really well on Android.

I did nothing and it realized on its own during the night that there is wifi, so I don’t know how long it takes, but it’s a possible source of confusion

We created a ticket for our dev team, @Piotr_Pekala, that’s a bug and I hope they are going to figure out how to fix it soon:

Thanks!

Not getting covers in Roon playlists when I look in ARC on 5G. Looking through the various playlists there are very few that show one, the vast majority doesn’t. 5G works well for everything else like YouTube

Already mentioned 5 days ago, never got a reaction from roon.

ARC wouldn’t show up.on my Android Auto so deinstalled and installed and it now shows up.
Impressively the reinstall found my server and was up.and downloading on smart.downloads despite not being on my home network.
The main blockers to.my use of ARC seem to have been removed, it goes on and offline seamlessly without screwing up.and downloads work very quickly.

I don’t know if any changes were made to this in build 225 but now on downloaded albums the cover is loaded in high resolution (even by putting ARC in offline mode immediately after download)

There was this in B223

I know, but I had problems with that and the 224 too.
Now with the 225 they seem solved. I will do further checks to be sure.

Unfortunately I have to correct what I had written. Behavior on downloaded covers It is still very fluctuating. Sometimes it downloads the high resolution image without having to enter the album, sometimes it download them in low resolution and sometimes it doesn’t download them leaving the “famous” gray cover

Hi, @Daniele_Piancastelli, could you, please, provide screenshots and examples of albums which still exhibit this behaviour and under which circumstances do they do it + provide timestamps if possible? Could you also elaborate on how they were downloaded, please?

Thanks!


Ivan

To be able to give you this information I have to make new downloads because I don’t have the timestamp of the ones downloaded (furthermore, those that were downloaded without covers are now all updated with the covers.
As soon as I have some cases, I will share them here

Got it, thank you for the reply, @Daniele_Piancastelli!

Last night SDL downloaded some albums and this morning I had this (I took it offline before going to the download page)

Still with ARC offline, if I go to the album page, however, the cover is loaded (initially here too there is the gray cover but then it loads almost immediately and in high resolution for these albums). Returning to the downloads page, it is updated here too.
I had to do these steps for all albums without covers
This on the Pixel 7a (android 14).

It seems like I’m having some more issues with an older Samsung S9+ that has an older version of android

I don’t think it’s Android or the version as I also still have the same with latest iOS, ARC B225 just now
