Hi awiouy

is there any chance to get the plugin work with Android/NVidia Shield?

It would be great if I could play my Spotify music with the Kodi Player but I didn't find any solution for that on Android.

thanks!

yes, I uninstalled it, restarted kodi and installed it again but I still got the same error

Edit: Installed 111q from this post: Librespot addon

and it's working.. strange

IIRC milhouse builds use a different kernel than the latest beta, and some addons may therefore have to be rebuilt

okay I changed to the official beta channel and now I am using 8.90.005 but I get the same error

deleting cache/reinstalling the addon didn't help

thanks for help

thanks awiouy, removing the cache solved the problem

Hi,

since a few days, librespot doesn't show up as connect device in the spotify app anymore. Can someone confirm that? Maybe there where some changes with the latest spotify update

Quote from awiouy

Which version of LibreELEC/Snapclient are you using?

What does the log say (journalctl -u service.snapclient)?

Here, Snapclient starts with LibreELEC.

I am using LE9 Milhouse Built #405 with Snapclient 9.0.100b

Yes, the Snapclient starts with LibreELEC but I manually have to set the ip to my own snapcast server (I don't run your LibreELEC Snapserver). My question is how to change the Snapcast Server IP within the LE Snapcast Client permanent.

Hi awiouy,

I run the snapcast server on a different RPi with Rapsbian. If I want to use LibreELEC as a Snapcast Client I always have to ssh "snapclient -h 192.168.188.46"

Can you tell me how I can configure the client to use this Snapcast server permanent?

you play music from you smartphone and select snapcast as airplay or spotify connect device

Yes it works out of the box with Kodi as output device. For me it's fine!

With Alsa it connects but there is no sound. But I will use Kodi as ouput.

btw: no I have no special sound device (RPi --> HDMI --> Onkyo AVR).

with output through Kodi it works very well! With Alsa as output device I didn't get it to work.

It would be nice, if the artist/song-information would be transfered for artist slideshow. Is this posible?

At the moment, it looks like that:

thanks!

Quote from awiouy

I will build Librespot for LE9.

Remind me your configuration.

Have you tried to run the addon wihout using the wizard?

my configuration is RPi3 with sound output through HDMI.

yes I tried "default:CARD=ALSA" and "PI: HDMI", but I get no sound + output device will not be saved. When I close the configuration menu and open it again I have to reenter the output device

Should it work with Kodi 18? I still got the problem with the playback device (latest millhouse built)

same here.

Sometimes the wizard is working and Spotify is playing through librespot but there is no sound.

If I try to reinstall the addon, the dependency "os.libreelec.tv" is missing. Could this be a problem?

Hey,

short question:

I switched to Kodi 18 (LE9) and want to use Librespot again.

When I try to run the wizard, it says there is no playback device. I could manually set a device, but I don't know what I have to write into the prompt? (Using RPi 3 with sound output through HDMI).

EDIT: Okay I think it's: "default:CARD=ALSA"?

I will test it tomorrow. But anyway it's strange that the wizard can't find any playback device.

thx!

Here is my workaround for the Hifiberry Dac+:

I've installed the plugin "audio profiles" and created two profiles:
1. HDMI
2. Hifiberry Dac

I've configured a button on my CEC-Remote to switch between the profiles.

In the Spotify connect web addon I chose the Hifiberry Dac as output.

So if I want to use Kodi with the Hifiberry I chose the Hifiberry Dac profile and if I want to use the spotify addon I chose the HDMI profile (sound comes through Hifiberry Dac).

I hope that helps you
Cheers
