No high quality, just 128kb

Hi,
Thanks for your effort on this script but it seems the PyDeezer you used in your project doesn't able to provide high quality output for any music.
so any Idea?

I do think you'd need to input a Deezer ARL with premium on the account for higher quality music

[suntification]

provided arl is for a premium account

What is the KBPS of the downloaded song?

[suntification]

128 kbps, no matter what you pass , I tried my arl with other packages like deemix or streamrip and they work fine.

[G3VV]

I'll have a look into this and see what I can do

I am experiencing the same issue.

I think this issue is caused by pydeezer, maybe you should try changing another library, because I tried pydeezer with arl premium also the result is 128kbps. acgonzales/pydeezer#30

[suntification]

Yes it's because of pydeezer itself, I moved to deemix and everything works smoothly

Not Deezer related but I noticed that Spotify songs are also only ever 128 kbps as far as I can tell, at least via the demo site. Are they higher quality running locally and providing your own developer token

Yes, it can reach up to 320 kbps with a premium account. You can use OnTheSpot if you want to run it locally: https://github.com/justin025/onthespot

That's great, thanks.

Yeah the demo site is only 128kbps, but I know the library to download songs (pydeezer) is an issue and is not maintained anymore.
I'm planning on either finding a new library to fix this or coding one myself, either will happen eventually.
