Tidal login problem using Oppo Sonica

Two weeks ago I tried to log in to Tidal hi-fi using my Sonica streamer but couldn’t . Since Sonica has gone out of business and hasn’t changed their software I can no longer use the streamer in my Sonica. Anyone else have this problem? I emailed Tidal and got the run around that it’s an Oppo issue but Oppo hasn’t changed anything Tidal had to have changed software. Oppo suggested using Mconnect. I looked at it but don’t know which app to select. Any other solutions?

As Oppo has suggested, using a different app like Mconnect may be a possible solution. Mconnect is a third-party app that can be used to stream Tidal to your Sonica streamer. You will need to download the Mconnect app onto a mobile device and connect it to your Sonica streamer. From there, you should be able to access Tidal and stream music to your Sonica.

It maybe short sighted but I dislike subscriptions. The idea of paying $60 @yr for as long as I have the Oppo is distasteful. I might be short sighted and foolish but it maybe time to sell the Oppo.

Don't. The Oppo is a beautifully built machine. Mconnect allows me to stream Tidal right through the Oppo

I decided to sell the unit and took the hit. I’ll try a Geshelli with the new ak 4399 chip. Using a wiim to stream . Have  a couple of weeks before the dac arrives. I choose aquarium glass with white.
