# Media Player FAQs

## General

### **Why does player progress update slowly / does not return progress?**

* The issue is caused by the media player (Spotify / browser) itself, and is not a problem with the module.&#x20;
* This mostly happens with `modern` method as Windows often doesn't request the current position
* &#x20;You can fix this by using `Auto` method for your modules instead (See below)

## Setting up media players

### Default settings

There is no setup needed by default. Everything should work out of the box

### Auto method

Users can choose to use `Auto` method to fully support certain media players.&#x20;

* **Spotify**: Requires [Spicetify](https://wiki.jaxcore.app/additional-requisites#spicetify-for-jaxcore)
* **Web browsers (Youtube / Soundcloud etc.)**: Requires [WebNowPlaying ](https://www.google.com/search?q=webnowplaying+companion)companion
* **MusicBee**: Turn on [this ](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/148718731743199233/354326491280048130/unknown.png)option in MusicBee settings
* **Foobar**: Install the [foo\_cad](https://poiru.github.io/foo-cad/) plugin for foobar

## Spotify with Modern method

Make sure this option is turned on in Spotify's settings. (Default is on)
