There are two possible causes: 1) Lack of bandwidth on your local network between server and your player 2) Spotify server running slow (some of them seem to do this occasionally) The plugin tries to find a server which is not running slowly. I suspect a problem with the spotify servers - if you leave it playing does it eventually find a server which streams ok? What happens is that each time it rebuffers and writes "relogin requested" to the log it logs out and then logs in again (to hopefully a different server). The idea is the different server should have less problems. -- Triode ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79706 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
