    Hi,

    Stupid question maybe:


    Is it possible to change the displayed name in Spotify Connect to just display the name of the Kodi installation

    Now it is 'Librespot@KODI' but i would like it to just display 'KODI'

    Thanks in advance

    I'm not fully sure, but my thing seems to be qorking again with the 8.2.110 update.

    However, I was quite confused with the new "initial audio level" setting. 50% is quite low.
    What is the purpose of the setting?

    You can change that line in /storage/.kodi/addons/service.librespot/bin/librespot.start, but I will not update the addon (render unto Librespot the things that are Librespot's)

    I like and use the librespot addon often.

    Recently I changed the libreelec Version on my M8spro+ Android box and installed 8.90.4 (9.0).

    The librespot Version from Libreelec repo is 9.0.1.109

    But this Version does not work anymore. It is seen as available device if I start Spotify on my handy. It tries to connect for some seconds but doesn´t.

    In kodi.log it says that it can not load value="hdmi:CARD=AMLM8AUDIO,DEV=0"

    WARNING: CAddonSettings[service.librespot]: failed to load value "hdmi:CARD=AMLM8AUDIO,DEV=0" for setting ls_o

    So I went back to version 8.2.110 from backup. This version is still doing the job!

    this is my alsa device :

    Can you fix this please.

    Addon revision 109 is outdated and does not work anymore. Addon revision has been merged but not built yet for LibreELEC 9.0. You have several options: wait for revision 110 on LibreELEC 9.0, downgrade to LibreELEC 8.2, or build the addon yourself.

    Hi awiouy, first of all - thank you for your work on the addon!

    As you mentioned, 109 is now outdated, and 110 has not been built yet for LE9. I'm an avid user, so I went to figure out how to configure build env, but I'm afraid I can't meet the requirements right now (decent CPU, 4 GB RAM, 20-25 GB SSD, Linux installed). If you have the build env ready, would you care to build the plugin for us, RPi2 users, and provide it here?

    I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be most grateful :)
