Hi @CraigR65, thank you for reaching us back here in the community. I appreciate your detailed post describing the issue as well as the steps that you did, let me help and try to figure this out.
You should be able to search for music on Spotify wheater it’s a free or premium account.
I’ll be asking questions to isolate the issue so we can create a path towards resolution.
1. When did you start experiencing this issue?
2. Have you tried turning off your CR200 and your Play 5 for a few minutes? Did it work?
3. How about using a different controller or mobile device? Were you able to search for music on Spotify?
Please submit a diagnostic of your system and reply back with the confirmation number. This will allow us to see how your system is functioning, and help provide a resolution.
If you need help with any other information, please be sure to let us know.
We'll wait for your reply.
Thanks for the reply.
in answer to your questions…
- I only just set up a Spotify account, it has never worked using the CR200
- yes, and no
- if I use a phone or tablet with s1 app installed, I can browse Spotify music
diagnostic code 592647974
n.b. The cr200 controller is registered to me, but does not appear in my list of devices
sonos radio does not allow me to browse tracks via the controller either, but it works with the s1 app
