Librespot on Kodi 'failed'

    Hello,

    Using my pi4 with libreelec 12.0.0 on it for the first time after a bit more of one month. Everything worked fine and still works BUT librespot which display a popup "Librespot failed X/5" and then a final one 'Too many failure'.

    I do not find any log about this error, nor on Kodi interface, nor on ssh (not really sure about where to search, nothing on ~/.kodi/temp).

    The device if not detected when using spoitify from my phone.

    No new update. I do not find anyone with the same issue recently anywhere on forums. Any idea ?

    It's working here on an iPhone 14 (17.6.1) using Librespot and normal Airplay streaming. I'm technically using an LE13 image and an RPi5, but the Kodi version is from before the bump to Kodi piers (i.e., the same Kodi version as LE12 images), the Liprespot add-ons are essentially identical, and RPi4 vs RPi5 makes no functional difference. NB: Airplay streaming generally works better, there's less lag on playback, but I assume that's not an option if using an Android phone.

    Android here, so airplay is not an option.

    I tried to reinstall the service: same issue.

    After enabling the advanced logs I have something about it in kodi logs if it can help.


    Well, it helped me. Knowing the issue was with the zeroconf discovery I entered my credentials in the user options field and it now work perfectly.

    If anyone has the same issue the syntax to put in the user option field is

    Quote

    -O -u [username] -p [password]

    The only thing that annoys me is my credentials are in plain text in the conf interface of Kodi, but well I'll bear with it.


    Thank for the help anyways
