I also want to say great work with a fantastic release!
I've been trying out the Spotify functionality and it's pretty neat. Just a couple questions/comments.
1) After selecting Spotify on the library page, it took me a very long time to figure out how to get back to my regular MPD library. It seems the only way to switch playback source is to go the playback page and click the Spotify button? It would be preferable to select the source also on the library page since that's where I would be choosing my music. (i.e. don't have the other buttons disabled when spotify is selected, and just have the "Playback Source" popup like when choosing spotify.)
2) I've got hardware volume control enabled (got the IQaudIO DAC+) but with Spotify, there's no volume control (greyed out at 100). Is this possible to include?
3) Looking at the commentary on sound quality for various volume options, why would hardware volume control have lower quality than disabled? I get why software might reduce the quality, but isn't the hardware option changing the output voltage, same as my amp? Just curious.
