In addition to the dev build did u also have to set $ap_port = '' in /var/www/inc/renderer.php?
RE: Spotify connect stopped playing audio - Tim Curtis - 09-04-2024
Looks like one of the librespot devs is suggesting that we may need to move to 0.5.0 dev
https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/issues/1322
If thats the case I'll build a package and upload it tomorrow.

The post I made on the Spotify forum has a lot of people agreeing. Many different devices have the issue. I expect it will be fixed at the Spotify end pretty soon if there are so many different clients that struggle.

Although, there's also this: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Other-Podcasts-Partners-etc/Spotify-Connect-issue-on-multiple-platforms-examined/td-p/5401177 so maybe they just don't care ™.
Is one of the differences in 0.5.0 that it uses the new endpoint perhaps?

Yeah, I hear you...
I almost exclusively listen to radio or my own purchased collection precisely so I don't have to rely on the whims of "the man", but Spotify is great for parties
Incidentally, I tried the "use google dns" hack, but it didn't have any effect for me.

I didn't, although I'm running an old build of Moode currently. I see other issues, such as the Spotify active overlay not displaying, and the volume control being different, likely caused by the different way the dev version handles player events...
I'm happy to try on the latest version of Moode and report back, if that's helpful...

Further incidentally, I forgot about DNS caching. Using google dns (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) then rebooting everything does work around this problem, at least so far....
RE: Spotify connect stopped playing audio - Tim Curtis - 09-05-2024
I just resub'd to Premium for a few months on a discount coupon and its playing perfectly on my end with current 0.4.2 librespot.
Below is some log output from /var/log/moode_librespot.log. It shows successful AP fallback.
To get this log turn debug logging on in System Config then restart Spotify Connect.
Code:

.This would suggest that the 0.4.2 release is still ok and possibly Spotify's AP network config got messed up preventing some regions from being able to connect to an AP for that region.
In any case I did build a 0.5.0-dev package and I'll test that later today.

With no changes to anything, now everything works again as it should. Spotify did something ...
