I have updated my addon a bit:
- the erroneous bit rate setting should be solved;
- the wizard should now handle device:CARD=card,DEV=n PCMs

The addon is said to work on S805, Wetek Play and Wetek Core, but I do not own such boxes.
Would anyone here be so kind to verify this for me?

As for the sound quality, I would not know where the problem comes from.
I add a link to alsamixer built for LE8 to inspect/modify your card's settings.
I have submitted a pull request to add alsamixer to the multimedia-tools addon.

Hello riverside70,

To help you I would need you to provide me with the following information:
- what version of LibreELEC you are using
- what version of the addon you are using
- what settings you have tried
- what your problems with the sound are? If you think it is overmodulated, have you tried to reduce the volume with your Spotify app?
- a log, to assess the problems you have with the sound, as well as those caused by the VPN

I use LE 7 (newest stable), I use the preview version I quoted in my first post, I tried the default mixer and PCM, I tried to reduce the volume and it works but everytime I must set it again. The vpn problem is not really a problem anymore, the script connects after a longer time again.
In the next few days I hear again and decide wheter its a problem or not. The overmodulation is not so heavy so its difficult to hear.

Hello riverside70,

Thank you for your feedback
The quality of the sound depends on your hardware and on the software (spotify-connect-web).
As for the problem caused by the VPN, a log would help (make sure to remove your credentials before you share it).

I installed spotify connect before on the musicbox OS, the sound was ok. But now on Libreelec I have problems with the sound, and tried several settings in the addon. I use my pi over an AV Receiver with hdmi.

I don't know but I think the sound is a bit overmodulated? Also I have a problem when I start/stop my vpn, spotify connect breaks and doesn't come back up.
