Hi, I'm trying to get Spotify running, but don't completely get your instructions. I have the Logitech Media Server v7.7.2 up and running on a Synology DS212j, working fine. Now... As per your 3), where do I select the "3rd party Spotify Plugin"? Somewhere in the DS web-interface or the Squeezebox itself? I did not find any "recommended 3rd party plugin list" :o( Maybe there is a step-by-step instruction for Dummies like me? ;o) Many Thanks!
