Newest Spotify seems to fool Spotifree #81

Closed jmckitrick closed 8 years ago

jmckitrick commented 8 years ago

I've noticed SOME recent ads getting past Spotifree. Here are 2 changes in behavior that might be related to the issue:

  1. muting my sound during an ad used to pause Spotify, but it no longer does
  2. during ads, the 'Spotify is playing' menu item in Spotifree says Spotify is not playing.

Perhaps they have changed the mechanism that Spotifree was using to recognize when Spotify is playing?

Hi, Thanks for reporting! Are those video ads, by any chance? If they are, then it's a known issue (#52).

Ah, yes I see. Maybe someone will figure it out.
