Following from this morning: for lossy formats I could report "32 bit", because that's what the decoder is working in then. While technically correct, I think it would only confuse users.

Agree. Best to leave it at 16

I see we have to set login password in the config.
Does that means that only the user with the right account can connect to? With Spotify, anybody with a premium/family suscription can play on a shared connector.

Correct. The Deezer Connect protocol does not have that feature - not a shortcoming of pleezer.

I just released v0.15.0 with a new command-line option that I think is very interesting to Raspberry Pi users: "--max-ram <MB>".
Quote:--max-ram: Maximum RAM (in MB) to use for storing audio files in memory. If not specified or if a track exceeds this limit, temporary files will be used. Example:
pleezer --max-ram 64 # Store tracks in RAM if under 64MB
As a guide for sizing:
- For 320 kbps MP3: ~15MB for a typical 5-minute track
- For FLAC: ~30-50MB for a typical 5-minute track
Consider allowing at least double these amounts to accommodate both current and preloaded tracks. For example, --max-ram 100 should comfortably handle most MP3 tracks, while --max-ram 200 would handle most FLAC tracks.
Before, tracks were always stored in temporary files. Storing in RAM should greatly improve SD card lifetime.

Cool.

Nice :-)
Where is the default on-disk location for tracks?

Default system temporary directory, so /tmp.
This is also the case for librespot, although I remember I made it a command-line option to choose another temporary directory. RAM storage I did not implement in librespot.

The /tmp dir at least on PiOS is mounted by systemd as type tmpfs which AFAIK is a RAM based file system.

On my moOde install it seems mounted on the SD card:
Code:
roderick@headphones:~ $ findmnt -T /tmp
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/ /dev/mmcblk0p2 ext4 rw,noatimeIf it were tmpfs, then yes that would also work well to save the SD card.
