The RPC settings are ok but RPC not working on Fedora with Discord from flatpack.

Uninstall it and reinstall the latest image - Then log back into Apple music when it prompts you, and It'll work then. Something amiss in the update process, at least in my case. Good luck!

And Cider folks; Thank you - This is an absolutely wonderful app well worth the costs. Takes away many of the official apps' pain points, and adds some nice features. The DSP effects are impressive, too!.

I look forward to your future updates.

Thank  you!!

🤔 doing this did not fix the playing issue (for me).

Sorry about this!! We’ve reuploaded macOS builds, and Linux builds.

The lastest version cannot play the music anymore, it pauses at the very beginning.

Try what @anthrobug just posted.

This is now fixed!! Sorry! Please redownload your respective dmg from Itch.io again.
