Tidal now on Squeezebox, no need for Ickstream


I just discovered that the Tidal app has been added to Squeezebox. I have been accessing Tidal HiFi through the Ickstream "helper" app on my Squeezebox Touch, but, after streaming direct through the Tidal app, I have noticeably better resolution than streaming Tidal through Ickstream.

Anybody else added the Tidal app to your Squeezebox player after using Ickstream? Did you experience the same improvement in the quality of resolution?

When I first started Tidal about a year ago, I had problems with tracks skipping to the next track in the middle of a song. Tidal was very cooperative and resolved the problem.

Now, both before and after using the Tidal app, it is doing that again. Tidal told me to change the DNS. I don't know why this would matter, but don't know on which device to change it, the PC or the router, or the iPad that I use as a contoller with the SB app.
