BluOS Controller App does not find many albums on TIDAL
I have been using my Bluesound Node 2i with the Android BluOS Controller App and TIDAL since November 2018 and I am generally very happy with it. Sound quality of the player with a German T+A amplifier is great, the app works well, especially with TIDAL. I just have two (small) issues with the app:
There seem to be many albums on TIDAL which the BluOS app simply cannot find. The TIDAL app lists, for example, many Lana del Rey albums as MQA versions, and when I mark them in the TIDAL app as "added" to my music list, the BluOS app neither lists the album nor can it find the album at all within TIDAL when I search via the BlueOS app. Is there a way to solve this? I could stream the album over the TIDAL app via bluetooth, but since I want to use the MQA version, that is no solution.
I have a similar problem with Amazon Music. Amazon Germany broadcasts live football games. But since about one month, the BlueOS app cannot play the broadcast anymore, it says "stream URL lapsed (or expired"). It finds the broadcasting programm and lists it in the app, but it does not play. I have to go over the Amazon Music app and stream via bluetooth to my Node 2i (which is ok, but not so good). Before, say, July 2019, this worked perfectly well, so this must be a newer issue (perhaps an issue with an update?).
Can you help?
Thank you!

Hi Jens
Please try resetting your connections to both these services;
In the Music Services meu, please select the services and logout. Select Help, Diagnostics, Reboot. Once the player is in Ready mode again with a blue LED, reselect Music Services and log back in.
If problems persist, please select Help, Send Support Request so we may take a closer look.

Under Music Services > TIDAL make sure that you have checked "include explicit content". I think the fun police might cut out a whole album if one song contains a single instance of some naughty word or other.

Thank you, Stelvio, that worked! I have changed the setting in TIDAL (via the BluOS App), as you said, to now include explicit content, and now all albums appear. There were really no "explicit" album titles among them ...

I can only play "CD" in Bluesound even though it exists as HiFi at TIDAL which I have a subscription with. How is this happening?

This is listed on the bluOS page, but not working after 4.0 this is why I have little to no access to comtent im paying for. BLUEOS--> "To restore the complete TIDAL catalog, select Include explicit content in the TIDAL Authorization screen. <--- THIS IS NOT WORKING. THANKS.

I can confirm that Including explicit content for Tidal no longer works in Bluos Controller. If user marks to include the explicit content, nothing happens and after returning back to the Tidal management screen the explicit content is marked as exluded.

I am having the same issue. The setting for explicit content doesn't stick.

When 50% of content your paying for isn't allowed, it's what's the point of a Node? My frustration is about to land this box on ebay...

I am having the same issue. The setting for explicit content doesn't stick since bluos 4, when playing directly from Tidal ("Tidal Connect") it does work, but it renders the bluos app useless

Hi Oscar
Look for an update on this very soon. Meanwhile the workaround is posted here;
https://support1.bluesound.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/18941075803671/comments/19483701539351
1. Log out of Tidal in the BlueOS app.
2. Before logging in, make sure you select “No explicit content”.
3. Log in to Tidal again. Now it should automatically switch to “Include explicit content”.0
