This sounds like a "PlayHLS plugin issue" and not a "future of HLS in
LMS" issue and so should best be handled in the plugin own thread. To
continue please repost on the PlayHLS support thread.

2.8 is part of the PlayHLS update so update should happen normally - V2
of the plugin is platform agnostic.

No HLS playlist appearing in Spotify sound like a Spotify plugin issue
in the same was Tune-in will not show HLS stream unless the "type" hls
is defined - this sounds like a Spotify issue.  PlayHLS does not deal
finding playlist or with the source of playlist just playing them.
