I have actually experienced the same problems myself with the latest QSpot version, and I am quite sure they are related to changing the library. Buffering speed seems slower with the official lib of some reason, and this can cause stop of playback. Also the issue with playback stopping at track change now and then seems to present in the current version of the official library. I hope that an update will be released soon (I have understood that many issues have been fixed in the latest version that have been compiled for Harmattan, and is used by both the official N9 and MeeSpot clients).

I am working on the offline mode support, and it possible that this will solve some problems (in my tests playback has worked quite ok when listening to a playlist that has been synchronized offline). I am working on the UI elements for the offline mode currently, an update is indeed coming very soon..
