My Question or Issue

Spotify now showing a solid colour in video podcasts. It was fine a few weeks ago. I've tried updating app, turning off on the tv, uninstalled the app and reinstalled it and updated the tv firmware. Tried casting as well, still no video. It works on everything else like my phone or Playstation, just not my native tv app.

Have you removed the ability to watch podcasts on Spotify through LG?

Thanks

Hey @franlovesyou,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community and welcome.

To continue investigating this issue, would you mind confirming if this happens with all podcasts shows you've tried? Also, would you mind checking with a different Wi-Fi connection to see if it makes any difference?

If it happens with all podcasts and with different networks, include in your next response a picture of how it looks on your end, along with the UI, Player and Brand info of the Spotify app on your TV. You can find this info by opening the Spotify app on your TV and selecting the gear icon located next to your profile picture.

We'll be waiting for your response.

I am having the same issue with Spotify app in my LG TV using Webos. I can play video podcasts in my mobile app, but only the audio and subtitiles are played in all the podcasts that I play in the tv app. It's strange because if I click "subtitles" in the tv app I can see the subtitles of the audio playing in the background but not the video image of the podcast. Sometimes, when I close the tv app, before the app closes, I get a glimpse of an image of the the video of the podcast that I was playing. It used to work fine until 2 days ago. Both mobile and tv app are updated to the most recent version and I have cleared cache several times in mobile app. The tv software is updated as well.

Hi,

I have the same error in my 3 LG Smart TVs:
-LG 28TN515S - Firmware 05.40.97.
-LG 24TN510S - Firmware 05.40.97.
-LG 65UN85006LA - Firmware 04.63.25.

Problem started after last Spotify app update (version 4.62.0).

When attempting to play any video episode of any podcast, the audio can be heard but there is no image. Things I have tried without success:
-Start playback from any television.
-Start playback from a mobile phone and try to continue it on any television.
-Log out and log in to Spotify on the televisions.
-Uninstalling the application and reinstalling it on the televisions.
-Turning off and even unplugging the televisions to try again after turning them back on.

-Disabling IPv6.

It seems quite clear that the problem lies with your latest version of the application. Please release a working version as soon as possible.

Thanks and regards.

Oh wow, just a few replies! I came to check in and saw the last reply saying it was working for them so I reinstalled it to test mine out again and seems to have been resolved for some of us on LG! Thank you, Spotify 👀😎
