Everyone seems to be raving about spotify integration on for example the BV11.

It would be great if the damn thing would playback Songs gaplessly, however it does not! Stuff like this really annoys me.

My mac mini with KODI installed on it does it perfectly, and I would think a high end brand like B&O should have no problems with it either!!!

The app is made by Spotify so blame them. It's a bad HTML-based solution I think. And while you're at them, ask them to make an Apple TV app. I can't believe how they still don't have one(!).
Hello,

Has anyone noticed a malfunction in the built-in Spotify app after the most recent update for the BV-11? (The update that added the excellent Netradio service)

After 55 seconds of playing a song, it begins to "skip" like a scratched CD. If I pause the music and start it again the disturbance disappears until another 55 seconds, then "skipping" again.

If this is not rectified, then Spotify account will have to be cancelled. It underscored the fact that we need a much better built-in Spotify app for the BV 11.
No such problem for me. Spotify works fine, but the app looks like it as 15 years old.

For me, Spotify does not work at all anymore. On my BV11.

2 Seconds and it stops.

The Spotify menu is so slow on the V1 that I've put a chrome cast on the back of the TV. I must try it!

I have no issue with the Spotify app other than it's doesn't display the "your library" folder which is pretty pivotal to an easy artist selection.

I do have problems with the Deezer app on my BV11, it either takes ages to load or doesn't load at all.

Is this just me?
Deezer takes a while to load I agree. It did first off. I can't remember the last time I used it on the avant. I generally use it on one of the speakers directly

One week ago my V1 started having the exact same issue. After around 56 seconds, the music starts scratching, and play/pause can get it in sync for another 56 seconds. The problem, however, can sometimes be solved by simply turning the TV off and on.

Spotify will soon be removed from the BeoVision 11, BeoVision Avant, BeoSystem 4 and Beoplay V1

Where is this information coming from ?
