Prerequisites

• This is not a support issue or a question. For support, questions, or help, visit /r/uBlockOrigin.
• I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue.
• I am running the latest version of uBlock Origin (uBO).

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

• uBO is the only extension.
• uBO uses default lists and settings.
• using a new, unmodified browser profile.

Description

When I create new playlist on Tidal web player then I can not add new song. When I shutdown uBlock origin I can add new song to the playlist.

URL(s) where the issue occurs.

Screenshot(s)

No response

uBO version

Shut off uBlock filters - then playlist is O.K.

Notes

When I create new playlist on Tidal web player then I can not add new song. When I shutdown uBlock origin I can add new song to the playlist. When is uBlock on i gave message: "This playlist has been modified elsewhere"
This cause uBlock filters, when is shut down I have no problem with playlist but I have audio advetisement.

A subscription is required.

First of all, follow the all the indications bellow. If you still experience issues, we'll ask you if you are willing to send (privately) your account credentials in order to be able to further investigate your issue.

• clear cookies / localStorage/ cache for the tested page
• reset uBO, don't modify any uBO setting, update all the filter lists, don't add any other list (other than your regional list)
• disable any custom filter for that site
• disable any other extension / addon in your browser, disable builtin blockers /shields/ tracking protection in brave/ opera/ vivaldi/ edge/ firefox etc
• if Opera browser: open opera://extensions/ and check the "allow access to search page results" option
• disable (if any) the web shields in your antivirus / antimalware software / other blocking software
• are you using a DNS which features adblocking (like AdGuard DNS)?=> test using another DNS (google for example => IP addresses 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4)
• restart the system, reopen the browser, test again.

I tried everything but with no result. This cause problem:
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\d\?country/)
but when is shut off i have audio advertisement.

Test account here (with US IP): https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-discussions/discussions/465

The regex needs to be changed I think, but other regexes did not work last time I checked. I still don't know why.

@TommyDeCortez

could you test

listen.tidal.com#@#+js(no-fetch-if, /\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/tracks\/.*\d\?country/)

[TommyDeCortez]

@TommyDeCortez

could you test

listen.tidal.com#@#+js(no-fetch-if, /\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/tracks\/.*\d\?country/)

Add new song to the playlist work but I have audio advertisement.

[stephenhawk8054]

I think it might relate to service workers: unregister the workers at chrome://serviceworker-internals/ and about:serviceworkers

||tidal.com^$csp=worker-src 'none'

?

[stephenhawk8054]

@TommyDeCortez Do these work for you?

listen.tidal.com#@#+js(no-fetch-if, /\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/users\/.*\d\?country/)

[TommyDeCortez]

@TommyDeCortez Do these work for you?

listen.tidal.com#@#+js(no-fetch-if, /\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/users\/.*\d\?country/)

It does not work. Add to playlist works. The audio ad remains but the player disappears when it plays.

[stephenhawk8054]

Well, last effort, can you do these steps?

1. Go to chrome://serviceworker-internals/ for Chromium browsers (or about:serviceworkers for Firefox) and find TIDAL service worker -> Unregister it.
2. Add these filters:

listen.tidal.com#@#+js(no-fetch-if, /\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/tracks\/.*\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/users\/.*\d\?country/)
||pushkin-v2.tidal.com/public/token/*/ws$websocket,1p
||listen.tidal.com/*/rt/connect$xhr,1p
||tidal.com^$csp=worker-src 'none'

3. Clear cookies and cache of TIDAL, log in and test again.

If it doesn't work, we can only remove the filter to prevent breakage, as I cannot reproduce the ads anymore.

[TommyDeCortez]

listen.tidal.com#@#+js(no-fetch-if, /\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/tracks\/.*\d\?country/)
listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/users\/.*\d\?country/)
||pushkin-v2.tidal.com/public/token/*/ws$websocket,1p
||listen.tidal.com/*/rt/connect$xhr,1p
||tidal.com^$csp=worker-src 'none'

Looks like it's working.
Thank you very much

[stephenhawk8054]

Can you test without the last filter (the worker-src one)

[stephenhawk8054]

For me it works without the $csp filter. However the main thing is it still comes with a breakage:

The profile section at the top left cannot show and I cannot click on it due to listen.tidal.com##+js(no-fetch-if, /\/users\/.*\d\?country/) (this filter makes Tidal's server not being able to recognize user's ID to deliver the ads I think), and I'm not sure if there would be other breakages or not. At least it's a bit better than the current situation.

@mapx- I'm not sure if we should add the filters or not regarding this breakage. I think it would be more suitable for an Experimental/Extra list than main list.

We should remove that breaking filter and if the other filters cause other breakages, well, for now nothing to do
