Yamaha MusicCast issue with some songs

[gazwald]

Hello,

For around a couple of weeks now certain songs won't play on my Yamaha TX-V581. Songs with the issue include:

Comet Gain - You can hide your love forever

Just Blankets - Polydactyl

Sonder Bombs - Shitty Boyfriend

Once they break they seem to stay broken although they have worked in the past. It will happen if they are in playlists or if I try to send them to the amp mid song. Totally fine on phone and PC. If they're in a playlist they tend to pause the previouos song before 3/4 seconds before it ends (so I guess it's trying to prefetch and causing the problem then). 

I also note this other recent thread with a similar issue. I tried to play the same song on my amp, and neither of the songs mentioned would play either - so suggets something about these particular songs that are the issue as opposed to my setup?

Done all the usual diagnostics - upgraded firmware on amp, turned off and on, reinstalled app on phone and PC, cleared cache etc. It's not always worked perfectly - random pausing etc - but this is a new problem and seems to be growing.

Thanks for any assistance

Hi,

Thanks very much for testing! Definitely a Spotify issue then. Hopefully someone will respond.

There's two versions of the Comet Gain song oddly - one plays and one doesn't for me - if you search the band and select it from most popular, that one doesn't work.

Seems to be fixed for me now, thanks Spotify!
