Spotify: Queue not working

[MaTr74]

Device: Integro
System-Version: 3.6.29
Plugin: Spotify 4.04

Hi,

When I add a title to the queue, this title does not appear in the queue.

I think, that's a generally problem, because there are several reports in the volumio community forum, e. g. https://community.volumio.com/t/new-2023-spotify-plugin/63381/14?u=supric

Kind regards,
Martin

Can you explain more? Where do you add to queue? Where you want to see reflected? (spotify app or volumio?)

Hi,

I'm playing via spotify app any song and can see the queue is filled:

Then I add another song to the queue:

This action is confirmed by spotify:

When I open the queue again, the recently added song doesn't appear:

If I do the same with another spotify device, no volumio device, then the new song appears in the queue:

I have the same problem with
System Version: 3.661
Plugin Version: 4.0.4

Problem occurs with iOS and Android devices and also via the Spotify Web-UI.

I am NOT authorized with my Spotify Account in the plugin settings, because I need the Support for multiple Users.

I experience the same issue. I'm also using Volumio 3.661 / Spotify plugin 4.0.4.

Here is a fix since Volume didn't pulled the fix yet:

1. (Skip this if you already enabled SSH) Go to http://your-volumio.whatsoever/dev and enable SSH
2. Connect to your volumio over SSH with ssh [email protected], Password is volumio
3. Move into /data/plugins/music_service/spop/ with cd /data/plugins/music_service/spop/
4. Open install.sh with nano install.sh
5. Press CTRL + W and type VERSION and press enter
6. Change 0.0.10 to 0.0.14
7. Save the file with CTRL + X + Y + Enter
8. Uninstall spotify with sudo bash uninstall.sh
9. Install Spotify again with sudo bash install.sh
10. Go into the plugin-section on your webinterface or just do a full-restart on your volumio
11. Stop Spotify
12. Start Spotify again
13. Done

This issue should be fixed now.

It's working like a charme! Thanks very much!

Since I experienced the same issue as MaTr74 I followed your instructions; however, my connection to Volumio is now lost whenever I try to add a song to the queue. You don't happen to know why this might occur?

Try yo upgrade spotify, they released updates which uses the latest version. For me it works sometimes, sometimes not. IDK. This new backend seems to be buggy as hell. Currently got 4.1.1. But the rest seems to work fine.

Edit: Add stuff to queue seems to work but sometimes (I think if you try to add multiple songs at once) with a heavy delay. It should appear but this could take a couple of minutes. You have to experiment with it a little bit.

Thank you. v4.1.1 works a treat!
