Did a bit more digging this morning. Installed the Spotify plugin and settings showed the helper as running. Restarted the application then rebooted the server.
After this the Synology Resource Monitor showed 3 instances of slimserver.pl adding up to about 90 95% of processor. It only shows 10 applications in the list so spotifyd may be there but off the bottom of the list. I went to the settings for the plugin and put in the account details, which appeared to stick. I then went to the Radio menu and noticed that Spotify was there, but no other radio services other than BBC iPlayer and the icon to enter a URL. Tried using Spotify but encountered the error message: THERE WAS AN ERROR LOADING THE REMOTE FEED FOR : (CONNECT TIMED OUT: TRANSPORT ENDPOINT IS NOT CONNECTED) Tried rebooting the server but the result was the same. I think this plugin is just a bit much for this NAS. The processor is only a 400mhz part and it only has 128mb of RAM. This is fine and fast enough for running the basic NAS functions and SqueezeBox Server in a basic configuration but clearly the Spotify plugin is just too demanding of resources in this 2007 vintage NAS. Interstingly others here have posted that the 2011 version of the two disk version of this NAS (the DS 211) runs the plugin fine. That has a 1600mhz processor and 256mb RAM and is functionally identical to the one disk version (DS 111) so I think I might have to start saving for a new NAS. -- TheLastMan Matt http://www.last.fm/user/MJL-UK *SqueezeBoxes:* SB Duet (Controller + two receivers) *Server:* Synology DS107+ NAS (with firmware 2.3-1157) running Squeezebox Server 7.5.3 on Synology Package Manager *Network:* Netgear DG834GT ADSL modem/router, 2 x Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 as access points *Livingroom:* Receiver into Naim 42/110 amp, B&W CM2 speakers *Kitchen:* Receiver into Denon DM37 mini-system, B&W 686 speakers *Study:* Linn LP12, Naim 72/Hi-cap/Headline. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TheLastMan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16021 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79706
