5 years ago Been fighting my PC for the last couple of hours. Aggravated! Lol.
For some reason the JQBX WebApp in Google Chrome does not see my Spotify app on windows, and the Spotify App on windows doesn't see the browser player, so i can't sync the two. it just started that today. so annoying.
plus, i still have the issue where my tv's (despite having every interactive feature turned off) go crazy when i open the jqbx website. it's like the roku is trying to recommend something to me based on what i'm listening too, but it can't, so it just goes to noise on the monitor.
i restored my tv settings to factory and then turned everything off that would potentially popup while i'm using the computer, but every time i go to jqbx, it does this.
it's been one of those days, man. tech issues all day long. plus, my spaz cat, shadow, decided to spaz out and jump across my keyboard all crazy like and broke off my zero key from the number pad.
ahhhhh!!!! lol
i tried uninstalling and reinstalling both Google Chrome and Spotify many times now today, but they still refuse to be friends!

sup Jason, 2nd issue:
i still have some weird kind of conflict going on where the jqbx individual rooms on PC through Google Chrome (with or without* audio playing and i think even just the "rooms" page with no audio playing) makes my monitors go haywire. it's really strange. i think that it is something between jukebox, chrome, spotify and roku on my tv's.
(and don't say to get rid of roku because i have a lot of roku stock and love the format, lol)
some things i've tried:
went through every possible setting in Roku on both of my TV's (that i use as dual monitors), looking especially at ARC settings and anything that was interactive save the remote control. none of that helped, but prior to doing that, sometimes when it happened, a tv show suggestion bar would come up at the bottom of my screen from roku based on my pc use. however, i disabled that function which got rid of the bar coming up, but didn't fix the flickering on & off, displaying noise and making pops in the TV speakers.
Disabled all audio drivers associated with my Geforce GTX 1070 card that is sending to the two tv's. obviously updated drivers as well as firmware on the tv's. none of it helped.
it's normally only one of the TV's (different one at random) that goes completely snowy or turns off. when that happens, i have to go to nvidia settings and change the refresh rate on the monitor that's out. that fixes it, but i have to do it every single time i open jqbx in Chrome. sometimes, both monitors become unable to see and interact with, so i reboot the machine. so far, this fixes the problem too, but i'm kinda worried at some point my luck may run out with rebooting and i'd have to find another monitor to use to fix it again.
it's perplexing. lol.
