**Multiroom Spotify Remoteless**

**Multiroom Spotify Remoteless**

Hi. It will be great if you can help set up upgarde to my multiroom sound setup.

 

I currently have a PC running 24/7 using the Apple remote app for multiroom control of itunes on the PC simulteniously sharing to other applt tv's and airport express.  Its a great stable setup.

 

Im now loving spotify and would like to do the same.

I have made some head way having read the odd article, but have hit a stubling block!

Upto now I have;

a spotify account, (not yet premiuim) that I have the latest apps on the ipad iphone and download to the said PC

All working with the use of spotify connect.

Following more reading, I have intsalled the remotless app to ipad and Downloaded Remoteless Helper along with Airfoil. 

 

I can get some parts working but its addhok! eg;

Starting with all apps and programmes closed-

open remotelss app

- connects to PC ok

- click 'start Spotify' - spotify opens on PC but as per photo attached, the time circle scrolls for ever.

- click 'Airloil'   - Airfil oopens on the PC showing all Air speakers connected.

At this point i dont have any further remoteless control unless;

If on the PC I play a tune on the PC spotify then the remoteless app can control the various speakers on/off & volumes.

All this time the remoteless app displays as the photo above whereby spotify isnt starting properly.

 

any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Matt

 

 PS.

Also;

 

Airfoil seems to crash.

The iphone/pad comes up with
