Hi,
Im having an issue where I play a spotify playlist from my phone, but every time, it stops after one song finishes. If I hit play again, it will play the next song on my phone. So each song I have to reconnect to my squeezebox room. This happens on both my raspberry pis running max2play. One has LMS and the other doesnt.
Also if I try to fast forward or rewind during a song, it disconnects from spotty and starts playing on my phone. I noticed the progress bar is not in sync with the actual place of the song. The time keeps ticking past the time the song was supposed to end. So its also out of sync.
Here is the log from today, you can see the last lines show invalid dataIm running latest spotty plugin.
//pastebin.com/rQsrRVWhI saw this thread, but the fix was to turn off squeezelite, which I dont see anything like that running anywhere.

grimmt premium11. Juli 2020 at 19:54 #49281I had a similar problem with spotty. Sometimes it would only play one song, other times it would play a few seconds of a song and skip to the next song.
Squeezebox Server Spotty seems to have issues using the Ogg Vorbis codec which is Spotifys codec.I fixed my issue by going to the Squeezebox Server WebAdmin settings/File Types section. Then look for the Spotty File Format entry and disable the Ogg Voris decoder. Remember to hit Save Settings. This will force the Squeezebox Server to convert the stream to flac.
I am using max2play 2.52 and Squeezebox Server 8.

Songs now play one after another and I can skip around the track w/o issue.
This needs to be in the spotty plugin, no reason we should have to disable this for the entire server.
grimmt premium13. Juli 2020 at 7:35 #49289Correct, this should only impact the Spotty plugin, if you just disabled Ogg Vorbis in the Spotty File Type.
djvj premium14. Juli 2020 at 5:05 #49290Oh, I didnt notice there was a Spotty only section. Ok thats even better then. Weird to have that option there if it causes issues. But I guess that makes it more transparent to the end user.
