Watch out for Spotify automatically changing your settings to LOW. Spotify automatically turned on "Auto Adjust Quality" and then set the quality to low. My internet is 600mb down / up btw.
DramaCongrats you passed the A/B test
YouTube do the same shit with the resolution of their videos. So annoying.
I dont know how in the freaking world is YouTube automatically choosing 480p when i have a 1.5 GBPS CONNECTION!!!!!! And its set ti hightest quality ffs.

Revanced is safe?
If I, after starting the video, set my preferred resolution manually it stays on that up until a point in time. Where that point is or what's causing it? I'm not sure. Sleep/Wake cycles can reset it back to auto. If I've forgotten PC on all day and come back, it might also jump back to auto but for mostly continuous playback I've not had it fail on me so far.
Worth a shot at least.
I always set the resolution, disable autoplay, disable annotations (which rarely add anything of value) and toggle closed captions if needed before clicking on the play button.
Just wondering, did you immediately notice or only notice when you went into settings
i think it's difficult to notice the higher up you go in sound quality but personally i can totally tell the difference between spotifys low and very high quality preset
I was on vacay then came back to my PC and decided to check it.
It is not the first time this happen.
Joke's on you, I don't use Spotify.
No issues with Apple Music
Flac all the way.
Exact same quality tho
And I thought I was paranoid, checking these settings from time to time, making sure Spotify is up to no funny business...
They never messed with my settings yet, but I will keep checking then.
Maybe there is something corrupted with your user profile on the computer? Reinstall the app?
Oh shit it DID change on its own. Thanks man
Happened to me the other day. I was very confused on why my headphone had lost their sparkle and everything sounded plain. I quick trip to the settings menu two albums later explained it.
i noticed that audio normalization turned itself on recently too, something else to keep an eye on
Heck even “high quality” Spotify is painful on my gear. Qobuz is the way!
It happened on a Mac that I use, I really hate how Spotify tries to do everything wrong automatically. Auto-quality is also an option that ruins the audio quality
Also, does anyone find the shuffle option isn't actually random? Seems like it just plays the same songs over and over, unless a reset cache once in a while
I always tell my friends to turn off auto adjust and "normalize" setting in their spotifys. Makes a big difference.
Good call!
Seriously, what the fuck!
I was wondering why everything sounded crappy lately.
Also annoyed at random song or albums that have clipping distortion (FourFiveSeconds @ 0:29 -- nails on a chalkboard).
Thanks man
Why is anyone into good quality auto using Spotify? You're literally wasting your money.
For the EXACT same monthly fee, you can get Apple Music which has Hi-Res Lossless and a vastly bigger music library. Only Tencent Music has a bigger library than Apple Music.
Again, Hi-Res Lossless for the exact same fee as Spotify
we have a spotify family plan and apple music does not have my whole playlist. also their shuffle would play the songs in the exact same order every time when i used it
For the EXACT same monthly fee, you can get Apple Music
Apple music is 40 centre per month?
Spotify uses 320kbps vorbis - aka, transparent, so I don't particularly care for listening purposes
Ya'll downvoting this guy for telling the truth? lmao
It amazes me how people continue to use and support Spotify in spite of all of the company's greedy anti-consumer practices (this post being just one example). Their loss, I guess.
Sound quality is the same for the human ears.
It was also set to low for me without me asking....
....but I honestly wouldn't have noticed if you didn't tell me ;)
Even the lowest streaming quality is probably indistinguishable from lossless for me.
The production quality and the headphones used are everything, the rest is honestly just gimmick. 99% of people out there would probably never be able to distinguish an "okay" amp from an "amazing" one, 192kbit from 320kbit or any 2 dacs made in the last 10 years.
But you can absolutely distinguish changes in audio mixing. I would live happily with 128kb, a 10$ dongle and some 3$ aliexpress cables if every track of music was mixed amazingly.
The point is that if you pay and choose for highest res. you need to get the highest res. and not get that downgraded automatically from time to time.
That is absolutely true, I don't appreciate the automatic quality change aswell. Even if I wouldn't notice it, it's not in their right to just give me less than I paid for.
Also why does my comment have 26 downvotes...? People here are strange...
No clue, I would've thought even audiophiles would agree
That's one way to reduce costs...
