Tidal Asset is not ready for playback (401) (4005) for some tracks
-
I get this error when i try to play some tracks. for example the "Alan Parsons Eye 2 Eye Live in Madrid" album. Most tracks work without a problem. I have the problem both on the windows as well as on the ubuntu and raspbian os version. 4 weeks ago it worked without a problem. Did Tidal change something?

@zapf2000
It usually occurs when the agreement between Tidal and the artist has expired, and they have not renewed it. -
I don't think so. The web player is doing it without problems.

@zapf2000 I'm having the same issue, with a lot of different tracks, and I can play them on the browser without any problem.
By the way, I'm using Strawberry on Arch Linux. -
error dissapeared for me after switching Stream URL method from streamurl to playbackinfopostpaywall in the tidal settings tab
-
@fruity Changing to playbackinfopostpaywall worked for me on Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic) after I installed gstreamer-plugins-bad e.g.
sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
