Spotify Web Player Doesn't Work In Vivaldi/Chromium Browsers #29

SPOTIFY HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS NOW

I am going to briefly describe the problem with the Spotify Web Player, and why it doesn't work in Vivaldi/Chromium Browsers.

The problem has the following associated with it:

  1. Spotify Web Player has the blank screen/black screen when you first load it.
  2. Spotify Web Player uses the Widevine Codec, which already causes many problems.
  3. Spotify Web Player forces me to have the Openvide Codec enabled, which is already done on many Chromium Browsers.
  4. Spotify Web Player has no known alternative codecs enabled for the Web Player.

I am going to attach this screenshot to prove that Spotify Web Player has the black screen:

Here is the Widevine Content Decryption Module (Widevine Codec):

Additional discussion is here (still unresolved):

As of now, I have gotten this Account Error:

Here is my browser version:

Please fix this as soon as possible!

Thank you, and Happy New Year!
