Afternoon All, I'm finding that turning on Video Block is blocking Spotify entirely, that is both audio and video streams. We use Spotify Premium to play music (through Google Nest minis and Sonos) throughout the house. If I have Video Block on to the kids group, it also stops them playing music... Is it just me, or is this others have noticed. Ps. If I turn Video block off, audio works again...

  Hi Firewalla, why are these questions going unanswered?

  Sorry, likely the old post was stashed into SPAM

  The network layer can't distinguish spodify audio or video. (same as google video or google music) They all come from the same source.

  If you do want to block video, try to block certain classes of video using app block, see https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/23857921094675-Firewalla-Feature-Users
