andlill commented 4 years ago

Hi After a few songs played of a queue the connection to the client is lost and IT then crashes. A reboot is requiered to get things up and running again.

Tried both Android phone and Windows PC Spotify client and samme result.

Any ideas of what the problem can be, is there any logs i can check for faults ?

Best Regards Anders

Could you try to install the latest spotifyd version by using this script?

https://github.com/nicokaiser/rpi-audio-receiver/blob/9ecd480c8f5c178de53c17fde256b7f96f568445/install-spotify.sh

Spotifyd sometimes stops woroking, this is a known bug: Spotifyd/spotifyd#458 However the latest release works a bit better for my setup.

Otherwise, can you check if there is something useful in journalctl -u spotifyd?

Hi Can't get the connect client up and running when instaling from this new script.

Seams like the installer do nothing even with a Y input on this package

Running on a pi3, Raspbian Stretch

Please advice.

I'm sorry, I messed up the Spotifyd installation script, which did crash before copying the binary to its destination. Can you try again with the newest version?

This got better with spotifyd 0.2.24, however it may still be an upstream issue, see Spotifyd/spotifyd#458.
