Hello!

I've been experiencing a problem with Spotify. The problem is when I start a song, it gets "paused" at 0:00, and I have to click and drag the dot on the bar to the begining, and then it will start playing. I haven't had this problem before the last update.

But then there's something else that I find quite annoying, and that's that in Windows 7 you normally can drag programs to the side and it will take the half of the screen. The feature was in an old version of Spotify, but you seem to have removed it.

Thanks for your time!

I have the exact same problem. The hanging on 0.00 until I drag it a few seconds further.
Really hope there is a fix for this, I use spotify while working and doing things around the house, don't want to be distracted by having to drag a progress bar every 3rd song...

Having the exact same problem here, it's really iritating when trying to listen to something when in fullscreen, really teadeous to have to alt+tab out and fix it. I hope it gets fixed soon!

Same problem here, someone needs to find a solution...

Just for sake of good bug reporting, here's what happens. I'll have a playlist on shuffle+repeat, and a song will finish. It'll go to the next, and the play/pause button will look like a pause button. It'll show the name and album art and stuff, and say the song is at 0:00. But the song won't play, and the progress slider won't move. If I drag the progress slider a few seconds into the song, or if I double-click the song in the playlist, it will start to play. If I click the "pause" button, nothing happens (no matter how many times I click it).

I'm using Spotify version 0.8.3.22 on Vista SP2 (x86). I have tried turning "Gapless playback" in my Preferences on and off, but it didn't affect anything. Help!

I have the same Problem on my Win7(x86) Computer. I talked with a friend and he has this problem too (Win7 (x64).

I'm having the problem often, too. It even happens with my offline tracks that I have downloaded to my computer. I usually double click the song again until it starts to play from the beginning. I have Windows 7 and Spotify 0.8.3.22.

With much tidings and God-speed!

I'm having this issue as well.  I already uninstalled and reinstalled it once, at which time it worked for a couple of weeks.  Now I'm having the same problem.  I double-click on a song and it either doesn't even show the 0:00 on the bar, or shows 0:00 but won't play.

Same issue here. I'll be listening to a playlist and it will randomly stop at the beginning of a new song and I have to manually make it start playing again.
