Hey
Can’t make it work, even with this 4.1.1 version
I even reseted the installation.
Here is the log
Thx for your work
Thanks for the log, very useful. We are looking at it, but there won’t be any solution to this before a week.
Can you try with a different track? Does that work? Where are you from?
What a fast answer 
To be more precise, when I choose the volumio device, it connects for 2 sec then disconnects. can’t connect after at all except if I reboot the device or if I disable/enable the plugin.
It’s the same with any track
I’m from Belgium
Take the time you need and don’t hesitate to ask for more info or for any test.

Can you try to select the Volumio device with Spotify in Pause or stop. Then, once connected play.
Let me know
Of course but that’s what I always do.
I checked the log and understand why you ask, the track is identified and seems to play but it’s not and it’s strange…
Works again on my Volumio x86 version by updating to 4.1.1
Awesome work & support!
Thanks a lot

My log looked exactly the same like yours for about a week (running Volumio on my Rpi3). I just updated to v3.758 and updated to Spotify 4.1.1 after Volumio was up again.
Spotify showed the same problem initially, but after a Volumio restart everything seems to work now.
I’m from the Netherlands by the way.

Thanks for the quick reqonse. I was wrong w/ my suspect. Anyhow 4.1.1 did fix the issues.
Hi! I just posted the following on a related thread:
Is it possible that the Spotify Plugin may be affecting overall system responsiveness?
Hello. Upon further testing, I’ve constantly run into the following errors on 2 different systems with the current version of the Spotify plugin (4.1.1) and Spotify Connect:
- Random disconnects
- Random inability to play selected songs from playlists with over 20 items (for example, a playlist with 30 songs like my weekly recommendations, or another with 3000+ songs I’ve curated over time). When I click on individual items on these lists, or press skip, from either a mobile or desktop Spotify app, I get an error message saying the track can’t be played and the system either selects a random song from it instead, or plays the first song in the playlist
@volumio Will reproduce and send logs.
Hi. Upon testing today, here’s some errors from a live log:
- When selecting random tracks on a playlist (it could even be the next track from the one currently playing), an error message appears in Spotify saying a track isn’t available for playback. Sometimes the track still plays, sometimes the track skips to another at a random playlist position like back to the beginning of the playlist or 2 tracks down the line, and sometimes the connection to Spotify connect breaks.
When this happens, these messages appear on the live console:
level=info msg=“skipping unplayable media: spotify:track: (track ID)” error=“failed creating stream for spotify:track: (track ID): no supported formats”
time=“2024-09-27T18:03:52-05:00” level=warning msg=“failed handling dealer request” error=“failed skipping to next track: failed creating stream for spotify:track: (track ID): no supported formats”
time=“2024-09-27T18:04:01-05:00” level=debug msg=“fetched chunk 4/21, size: 524288” uri=“spotify:track: (track ID)”
error: error
Other times it’s this:
level=warning msg=“failed handling dealer request” error=“failed loading current track (load context): failed creating stream for spotify:track: (track ID): failed retrieving audio key: failed retrieving aes key with code 2”
And this:
error: Failed request for metavolumio API
Could this be an authentication issue?
Hi All,
I’ve just posted this elsewhere but then found this thread.
I have issues where tracks over 20mins long start to stutter at the 25ish miniute mark. I’m assuming its some kind of cache issue. I can get round the issue i think by dropping the bitrate setting in the plugin down from 320 to 160, but wondered if there was away to fix and use max bitrate still?
Running on a pi3
Cheers
I cannot get the plugin running properly.
What I have:
Volumio 3.757
Spotify 4.1.1
RPi 3
Completely fresh installed Volumio.
My problem:
When I select Volumio in Spotify as Player the Music plays 20-30s and then the Volumio App on macOS/iOS/Windows doesn’t show Volumio as Player anymore so that I cannot control Volumio over Spotify anymore.
What I’ve done so far:
I “played” with the Spotify Browsing but no change.
The interesting thing is: When Volumio changes the song, Spotify is “reconnected” for 1-2s and Spotify shows the same song than Volumio.
Can anybody help? Unfortunately Volspotconnect2 is also not working anymore on 3.757
As for today I would do a downgrade of Volumio to use Volspotconnect2 because this worked perfectly over the past five years.

OK, for now with 3.758 Volspotconnect works again. But the new plugin never worked good here.
