  • Spotify Connect Web

    Quote from lollo78

    Another question, It's not clear (at least for me) how to check the 4000 port.

    For information : With SSH in LibreElec, you can type :

    Code
    netstat -taupen | grep 4000

    If the service is working, you should see something like :

    Code
    tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:4000            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      593/spotify-connect

    If nothing appears, something is wrong.

    Script you posted has error

    Haha you're right, it was a copy/paste misclick ;) I fixed the 1st message.

    What are you trying to do? Set a custom display name? If possible, change LE's hostname.

    If not, you can edit /storage/.kodi/addons/service.spotify-connect-web/bin/spotify-connect-web.start and reboot or restart the service with
    systemctl restart service.spotify-connect-web

    If you tell me what you are trying to do, and it is reasonable, i might fit it into the addon't trying to change the displayname, just

    I was just trying to start the service at boot, since the default (built-in) method was not working. It seems that the plugin was not reading the "settings.xml ", but I didn't found why. It was telling he couldn't find the "spotify_appkey.key", despite the file was at the right place(s).

    I think I'll remove the plugin and my scripts, and make the whole process again to find out if it's working as supposed.


    EDIT @awiouy : I just realized you're the author of this addon. You're doing a great work.

    Thanks for your answer.
    You're right about this addon supposed to start automatically; but for some reason, it didn't wanted to read it's settings.xml file, and failed to start.

    I got it working just few minutes ago, by running the script (spotify-script.sh in my first post) from autostart.sh.

    Bash
    #!/bin/bash
(
        /storage/.config/spotify-script.sh
) &

    Well, if it's work with the script instead of the whole command... Why not.

  • [SOLVED]Start something at boot

    Hi there!

    I'm trying to launch spotify-connect at boot. I'm posting here because it's not a problem with the addon. I want to launch this :

    Code
    /storage/.kodi/addons/service.spotify-connect-web/spotify-connect-web --username MYUSER --password MYPW --bitrate 320 --name MYSERVER -o default:CARD=ALSA

    From the command line, this is working perfectly. So I tried various method (I'm not a beginner with linux systems)


    1. The autostart.sh method

    I first tried with /storage/.configautostart.sh (I made it runnable with "chmod +x" :(

    Bash
    #!/bin/bash
(
 /storage/.kodi/addons/service.spotify-connect-web/spotify-connect-web --username MYUSER --password MYPW --bitrate 320 --name MYSERVER -o default:CARD=ALSA
) &

    Not working; it's not the command, because even a simple

    Code
    echo "test" > /storage/.kodi/test.txt

    is not working either. Seems libreelec don't care about autostart.sh.

    2. The systemctl service

    /storage/.config/system.d/spotify-connect.service


      
    Not working at boot. I tried to use an alternate script in the "ExecStart" line :

    Code
    ExecStart=/storage/.config/spotify-script.sh

    And the spotify-script.sh (runnable) :

    Bash
    #!/bin/bash
cd /storage/.kodi/addons/service.spotify-connect-web
/storage/.kodi/addons/service.spotify-connect-web/spotify-connect-web --username MYUSER --password MYPW --bitrate 320 --name MYSERVER -o default:CARD=ALSA

    This is working when running "systemctl start spotify-connect", so I tried to enable it at boot with

    Code
    systemctl enable spotify-connect

    but at boot... nothing happens.

    3. Crontab

    Code
    crontab -e

    then

    Code
    @reboot /storage/.kodi/addons/service.spotify-connect-web/spotify-connect-web --username MYUSER --password MYPW --bitrate 320 --name MYSERVER -o default:CARD=ALSA

    nothing happens.


    Aaaand... I have no more ideas. Can someone point me to one of my errors, or have another idea?

    TL;DR : I want to start a command at boot but nothin works.


    Thank you!
