Ad plays when Spotify is hidden by a Virtual Desktop Manager

[roydukkey]

If using a virtual desktop manager (VDM), ads will not be blocked while Spotify window is hidden by VDM.

1. If the Spotify window is shown during an ad, EZBlocker will recognise the an ad and block it.
2. Should the window be hidden while an ad is being blocked, EZBlocker will not resume playing music until Spotify is shown by vdm.

I have tested Dexpot and VirtuaWin and have verified the issue appears with both of these VDM.

Very interesting issue. Most likely cause by EZBlocker not being able to read from the Spotify window when it's hidden. Have you tried running both Spotify and EZBlocker in the same vdm?

[roydukkey]

I have. Also, it doesn't matter whether the window is minimised to the system tray or not.

I have the same problem with the spotify option in taskbar : "hide spotify window when minimize button is clicked"

Should have fixed problem with Spotify in the taskbar in v1.3.6.5.

[roydukkey]

This issue persists in version v1.3.6.6.

I confirm the fix is not reliable, sometime it works, sometime it doesn't.
When it doesn't, I restore the window and the ad is muted.

Should be completely fixed in EZBlocker 1.5 for Spotify 1.0.1+.
