  • Librespot Add-on

    Since a couple of months my LibreELEC librespot client isn't listed under available devices any more, although it seems to start without errors. The log does contain the following lines when I activate the addon:

    Code
    2020-02-25 20:27:34.940 T:1068483456  NOTICE: Librespot: service started
2020-02-25 20:27:34.940 T:1068483456  NOTICE: Librespot: monitor started

2020-02-25 20:27:34.972 T:1068483456  NOTICE: Librespot: stop librespot
2020-02-25 20:27:35.092 T:1085268864  NOTICE: Librespot: control pipe started

    Is this output OK? Because of "stop librespot" I guess here is something wrong.

    When I start the service directly via ssh everything is fine:

    Code
    LibreELEC:~/ # librespot --name=foo --username=johndoe

    The client is listed under available devices till I abort it.

    So where is the difference? I've double checked my password in LibreELEC addon settings and also tried to listen as anonymous with no success.

    Using Librespot 9.2.0.120 on LibreELEC 9.2.0 on an RPi 2.

    EDIT: I solved it by uninstall (including settings), restart and new install of latest version /shrug
