Dear community,
this afternoon we have been contacted by QOBUZ reporting they will temporarily disable QOBUZ access for Volumio until monday.
This is due to a particular search string causing disruption on their service. So they decided to disable Volumio access to avoid disruption on their service until monday.
We apologize for the inconvenience and we already put in place the fix they required, but there is nothing more we can do at the moment.
We will keep you posted.
UPDATE 23/09/2019
After a 4 days long exchange with QOBUZ technical team there is finally a solution, although not the one we were hoping for.
They decided to revoke the API key and issue a new one, in order to allow only updated Volumio clients to access their service.
For our users it means that to access QOBUZ again, it is required to update to latest Volumio version. We are rebuilding all Volumio versions (for all officially supported hardwares), and the new version will be available tomorrow (24/09/2019).
We are sorry for those days without your favourite music, but it was not under our control and we worked as hard as possible to minimize any disruption. We will update as soon as the updates will be available.
UPDATE 24/09/2019
QOBUZ is re-enabled on release 2.619, to use it again, please update to the latest version. Then (IMPORTANT) log-out and log-in again from QOBUZ.
Thanks Michelangelo. Perhaps it made sense to post this more prominently, since many people may be hit by that issue.
The issue brings me to another idea like allowing MyVolumio users to receive notifications about such issues. Perhaps an option to show such messages in the Volumio UI, of cause only from you?
I stumbled onto this notice just now - after my Qobuz suddenly disappeared on Friday I spent the last 2 days updating Volumio, reinstalling Volumio, installing new Volumio image, searching Internet - glad I finally found the reason
FYI - If you have Bubble-UPnP app on your Android device you can access Qobuz with it, select Volumio renderer until Qobuz native returns. Awkward but works.
Same here. No Qobuz yet. When I type in my username and password, nothing happens. I did update Volumio just yet,as it states it should fix the connection string.

Hello
Thank you for the new update!
Qobuz works fine for me again.
I have several volumio players. For one player, I had to log out of Qobuz and then log in again to make it work. But that’s no problem - a hint for other users.
Hi Michelangelo, what do you think of a “push” message functionality to volumio users on the gui? Or at least an email?
I lost a couple of hours last weekend to re-flash again volumio image thinking of some big probems…
