Learn how to resolve issues with the Favourites (FAV) function on Technics units for Spotify, TIDAL, Deezer, Internet Radio, and Podcasts. This guide covers troubleshooting steps for when registered stations, music, or playlists cannot be called up or when different or unavailable content plays back unexpectedly.
Possible Causes and Solutions
Cause: Stations, music, or playlists registered in the Favourites function (FAV) have been deleted or changed by the service provider.
- Check whether the content is still available from the service provider.
- If the content has been removed or changed, register the station, music, or playlist again in the Favourites function (FAV).
Cause: The service provider may play back a different content from the registered playlist when using the Favourites function (FAV).
- Be aware that some service providers might dynamically manage playlists, causing different content to play when calling a favourite from a playlist.
- If consistent playback of specific content is required, consider directly accessing the content through the service’s app instead of using the Favourites function (FAV).
Cause: The content may not play back normally due to service provider restrictions or technical issues.
- Verify whether the service provider is experiencing any issues with the specific content or playlist.
- Try removing and re-adding the content to the Favourites function (FAV) to refresh the registration.
