The first of the two Spotify entries, was:
 C:\Program Files (x86)\Spotify\spotify.exe

The second of the two Spotify entries, was:
 C:\Program Files (x86)\Spotify\Data\SpotifyWebHelper.exe

But there was no Spotifyd.exe that I could see anywhere.

There was an "Add another app..." button.  When I clicked on that there
was a list of Apps that could be added.  There was one Spotify entry,
bit that was
 C:\Program Files (x86)\Spotify\SpotifyLauncher.exe
and that didn't seem right either.

There was a "Browse..." button, and I tried browsing for the
spotifyd.exe file.  I first tried
 C:\Program Files (x86)\Squeezebox\Server\Plugins
but that was an empty directory.

Ah... found it in
 
C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\Cache\InstalledPlugins\Plugins\Spotify\Bin\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread\spotifyd.exe

Opened that executable for "Private", and music immediately started
playing from the top 100 list.

Thanks google, for your great assistance! :-)

When I run the self test, it says on the first line
 Helper App Not Running FAIL

And then at the bottom:
 Helper App is not running - please check why

In the triode spotify plugin log, the lines with a current time stamp,
are the last two: 
 [22:59:35.529] main:586 req: status.json res: (null) par: (null) prot: 
HTTP/1.0 auth: (null)
 [22:59:35.529] process_status:1279 process status

I guess this is a clue that something is wrong with my plugin
install...?

This thread had the same error message

It looks like Triode thinks this message is firewall related.
When I opened the firewall on Windows 8, and selected the "open for app
or function" (freely translated from the Norwegian text in the Norwegian
Win8 install), there were two entries for Spotify in there.

There were two columns with checkmarks: "Private" and "Public" (I
guess... the Norwegian text there said "Offentlig").

Both of the Spotify entries had checkmarks in "Public", but "Private"
was unchecked.  I checked the "Private" entries as well, but that didn't
make any difference.

Do I have to open an incoming port on my firewall to the outside world
as well?  If so, which one?
