iFrame embed code limits playback to 30 seconds for podcasts

[bm1030]

When using Spotify's Embed Episode tool to generate an iFrame, playback is limited to 30 seconds for podcast episodes, and the "Start At" option no longer works if the time is set at more than 30 seconds.

When using Spotify's Embed Episode tool to generate a player on a website, playback is limited to 30 seconds for podcast episodes, even thoug the whole episode lenght shows (for example 27 min) it will only play 30 seconds. Occurs on desktop and mobile

For a few days the web player on our website (for example: https://www.hypothetisch-theoretisch.com/folge-11-eine-geschichte/) plays each podcast only the first 30 seconds and then stops. Until the end of December everything was still working.

This problem occurs regardless of browser and operating system and has also been tested in different locations (work, friends, home). The problem is consistent everywhere.

Is there a solution to this or is this just a temporary problem on Spotify's end itself?

Same problem her. And the catch is that I can embed full episodes on some podcasts, but not on others. Also, all podcasts are fully playable on Firefox, but not on other browsers.

Has this still not been fixed?

I embedded an episode where I was interviewed and want to start it at the seconds where I start speaking but no matter how often I adapt the code, it keeps starting from the beginning of the episode. Is there a trick?
