XR1000 Spotify tracks pause before playing next track
I've had a strange problem with my XR1000 router and Spotify. There's a bit involved, so I'll start with the symptoms. When I use Spotify Connect, to stream music to my Anthom MRX1140 receiver, ever...
- That's interesting, well done for determining that, it could be QoS, if you disable this fully from the Congestion Control menu does it still occur?
Disable the Adblocker on the router, does that resolve the issue?
Hi Netduma-Fraser, thanks for the suggestion.
Adblocker was already disabled. I tried enabling it as well just to check, however there was no change.
- Do you have the option enabled where it fades out the end of the track into the new one? If so if you disable that does it work properly?
Thanks for the suggestion. I did have 'Crossfade song' and 'Automix' (Allow seamless transition between songs on select playlists) enabled. I tried turning them off one by one, then both off, but I still have the problem in all cases.
I'm interested to try a different music streamer now as well; I'll look into it. I've been thinking the problem is between the XR1000 and Anthem, as they both work ok with a different receiver or router respectively. Now you've highlighted the other possible factor is Spotify itself. I don't intend to give up Spotify, but it might answer some questions.
