Strange issue with Spotify on the iDrive.
Discussion
As above it's only been happening recently, about three weeks now. The music plays normally, but I get no time bar on the widescreen Nav. The artist name appears OK but it always says 'unknown album' and it always says 1/50 as well but that doesn't change when the next song comes on.
I've tried a soft reset on the iDrive (on/off button for 30 seconds), unpaired and re-paired my phone, hard closed the app on my phone, restarted my phone (Google Pixel 8 Pro if it matters) but none of this has fixed it. It's a 2015 F36 428i GC. Someone on Reddit suggested changing the Bluetooth streaming mode within developer options on the phone but having tried version 1.3 where I got no music at all and 1.4 where it didn't change anything I put it back to the default 1.5. Any ideas or a solution?
