That is amazing (at least for all Spotify users) - never thought that this should happen.

Though excellent and stable, I never was enthusiastic about it.

Being a long time Spotify user, I was very disappointed after buying it, that there was no support for Spotify Connect there…..my dealer did not really knew then.
None the less I have kept it. Nowadays it mainly serves as a hub/gateway for a Beogram 2402 in the setup - muted and hidden away.

Seems that this little ‘now-gem’ could become more used (or that I will have to buy a second one 🙂

This said….I see in the (Bang & Olufsen) app, that the connect support is present and that you can ask to open the Spotify app from within the app.

But last time my M3 was updated was in august/the 28 (to 1.11.45906) and - what is worse -  it does not appear as a device to choose from the Spotify app - only via Cast and AirPlay.

How does it look in your app/setup?


P.S. I wonder when Spotify will start the long rumoured lossless streaming.

Thanks for the heads-up, however Spotify is not seeing my M3 as a Spotify connect speaker, only chromecast. The Spotify connect option is there in the device settings though. Is it working for you?

Some time ago my M5 disappeared as a Spotify Connect device from the Spotify app. It was only visible as a Cromecast device.

However, if you in the Spotify app tap the 3 dots to the right of the Cromecast device you can select it to be either Spotify or Cromecast - see the screenshots below:

I will assume that the same could apply to the M3 after Spotify Connect has been added.

Thanks for all the screenshots!

 

I sure jnow what to look for - however, there are no three dots after my M3.

I did a reboot of the M3 and I also killed the app in order to restart it.

Will have to investigate more tomorrow.

Mine is exactly the same as yours MM. 

No mention of Spotify in the web config for the speaker, I was expecting it to be in the local sources list but it’s not there.

But in the app it shows as there
