https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Windows/Windows-8-1-and-Spotify-Connect-bug/m-p/1562455#M27486 <P>Hi,<BR />I am exepriencing significant inconvenience when I try to run Spotify on Windows 8.1 pro: the Spotify does not see Marantz NA6005 standalone network player device. However when I run virtual Debian on the same Windows 8.1 then Spotify on Debian sees the Marantz player. I can start playing on this Marantz from Debian. Once I start playbeck, the Spotify on Windows 8.1 starts seeing Marant player also and I can successfully operate on Windows' 8.1 Spotify. But it is really inconvenient having to start virtual Debian and its Spotify before I can continue on Windows 8.1.<BR />What I already tested on Windows 8.1:<BR />- disable Norton Security<BR />- unisntall Norton Security<BR />- disable Windows firewall for both private and public networks<BR />- change network to private (using registry)<BR />- change connection from Wifi to Ethernet<BR />Router is Netgear WNDR3700v2. Marantz is wire-connected. Windows 8.1 x64 pro runs on laptop Lenovo T530 which is connected through WiFi.<BR />Please tell if the bug is within Spotify for Windows and if there is a solution?<BR />Thanks and regards,<BR />Mark</P> Mon, 23 Jan 2017 20:58:47 GMT Ravenik 2017-01-23T20:58:47Z https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Windows/Windows-8-1-and-Spotify-Connect-bug/m-p/1562455#M27486 <P>Hi,<BR />I am exepriencing significant inconvenience when I try to run Spotify on Windows 8.1 pro: the Spotify does not see Marantz NA6005 standalone network player device.
