Now it working looks brill..yes a shuffle would be nice also not having to log in all the time when you come out of it.

You dont have to log in all the time it does it for you ..nice.

Logged in once, had a quick play. Couldn't find a box to search for artists/songs/albums. Exited app. Went to log back in, doesn't save password.... Typed in again and box crashed

Rebooted and this time it recognised me (no login required) however box crashed again

Visually it looks ok, and presuming there is somewhere you can search then it will be ok as an app, however I can't ever really see me favouring it over sonos if I want to listen to music

There isn't a search....yet

Seems to have settled down. Definitely a big step in the right direction UI and function wise compared to some of the earlier apps. Search will improve it further but you can at least make playlists on your portable device or desktop and they will be playable from the TiVo

no search but ive managed to get all the glee albums up for example and play songs from there and you can star them, im not a premium member so i have no idea why i can play tracks

chrisidaho · 28-11-2011, 19:29

Out of interest. If I have the premium license can I use it on a friends TiVo when I am around there?

Dave42 · 28-11-2011, 19:31

just tried it works great thanks VM

nstokes · 28-11-2011, 19:35

managed to make a few tracks as a star and can log into and see the tracks on my phone. Also album art is there when in full screen but seems its only on certian albums, ive managed to play MJ, The jackson 5, glee and rhianna

found out why, been on site and it says "Subscription status
You are registered for Spotify Premium until 2011-11-30. After this period your account will become a Spotify Free account unless you choose to renew your subscription."

Might be working away in the background, but been using Spotify for a while, have over 1600 tracks starred, but only 300 odd appearing on my stared list on TiVo. Hope shuffle gets added soon too.

Great start though.

Same here have various foo fighters and elo tracks they are on my blackberry but not tivo hope its a glitch and they are working on it.Same applies to my elo and foo fighter albums on my phone but not tivo but my iron maiden ones are.

exilis · 28-11-2011, 21:12

All my large playlists max out at 300 tracks it seems, hardly ideal
