O/S: Windows 7, latest updates installed
LMS: 7.9.2
Spotty: 4.2
Client: Spotify App on Android
So I was really excited when I initially heard about Spotty and streaming it using my Squeezebox Duet players as I've been running this setup for years.....unfortunately I've not been able to spot to work stable yet.
The spotty.exe app crashes frequently and usually right when a song is selected to play. Sometimes it will play after selecting the first song, sometimes not. Sometimes it will play the second song, sometimes not. Most definintely by the time the 3rd song is selected it will crash. When this happens, I get this in the Application event log:
Windows cannot access the file for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program spotty.exe because of this error.
Program: spotty.exe
File:
I have run check disk, etc.. and do not believe it's a problem with my main drive where LMS is installed. This is the same PC which I use for my HTPC / TV viewing and it is very very stable.
I have been troubleshooting this now for days and desperate so hoping someone can help. When it crashes, there is generally nothing in the log until spotty restarts but for completeness here is a bit of log right before a crash:
