So … latest version on a Pi with a iqaudio DAC. Webradio works a treat, no issues. Youtube, did the register thing … typed the code into [google.com/devices](http://google.com/devices) (hint: instead of just displaying the URL on the screen, why not just make a clickable link?) Registered the device ID, google says it’s happy. When I try to search for a Youtube track, I get a pair of small blue popups on right hand side of screen. One says "register you device in order "etc, the other says “searcing Youtube, may take a while” … then after a while, “Error: no results” … never gets any results. Spotify: I have a premium account … the plugin does correctly search spotify, and when I click a track it says "now playing … " in a popup, loads the cover image, knows the track length, knows its 320kbits or whatever … but it never plays, the timer stays on 0:00 forever. Skipping it forward, pressing play etc has no effect. Sigh … any ideas? ---

Spotify search and play tracks is working fine here. Can you reboot your device, try to play a track (and presumably fail), and the send a system log please? ---

Done. [logs.volumio.org/volumio/AODRCjf.html](http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/AODRCjf.html) It appears to be unable to connect to: [ap.spotify.com:80](http://ap.spotify.com:80) Checked from a browser, also unabel to connect. It’s been like this for weeks, so I don’t think it’s a temproary outage. ---

OK, no response, I am going to assume its broken and not likely to be fixed anytime soon. ---

I have exactly the same issue. Youtube plug-in used to be perfect. In addition to that, as I tried to connect to spotify, it kept disconnecting itself. rebooted and tried it many times, sometimes worked sometimes didn’t. This all happened after the latest update. I found it disconnected at specific track I played. Those songs just can’t be played. Running at resp pi B+, Applepi DAC. ---

I can’t also access spotify using latest version of volumio installed in Pi3 + Allo Boss DAC.

I have investigated the log of the spotify daemon and it reports that we can’t use anymore spotify without a premium account Is there a workaround ? volumio@volumio:~$ systemctl status spop.service ● spop.service - Spotify Daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/spop.service; disabled) Active: failed (Result: signal) since Sat 2018-12-22 12:46:14 UTC; 3s ago Process: 30985 ExecStart=/usr/bin/spopd -f -c /etc/spopd.conf (code=killed, signal=TRAP) Main PID: 30985 (code=killed, signal=TRAP) Dec 22 12:46:14 volumio systemd[1]: Started Spotify Daemon.

My problem fixed. I re-installed the spotify plug-in(whatever you have installed) and it works. You may need to re-log in the premium Spotify account. Did the same to my youtube plug-in, too. It was recovered and work well now. I bet the new update confilicted to the plug-in. ---

Is it possible to also add a remark/comment under the official Volumio Spotify plugin to specify that it only works with a Spotify Premium Account ? ---

I actually have a Spotify Premium account, so it’s not that. It also doesnt explain the failure to work with YouTube … ---
