Here is a preview of revision 115 for LibreELEC 9.0.

It should run on all arm systems (RPi2, RPi3, CoreELEC, etc) except RPi and RPi Zero.

Let me know what you think about it.

I tried:

- it works (Kodi or X11, not both)

- it is not worth the effort

Use Kodi for audio/video

Use a full blown distro for anything else

Use tinc

Hey.

Emby Version 4 is out.

I submitted an addon for Emby 4.

It is separate from Emby, among other things because it breaks transcoding and Live TV.

Let me know how it works for you.

What I can see from the logs is that processes (eg librespot) start before network is online.

Have you tried to set wait for network in LibreELEC settings?

That way, well behaved processes (Kodi) will wait for network being online.

Otherwise, try a wired connection.

I will do some testing with a Hifiberry DAC+ tomorrow.

In the meantime you could ask Hifiberry how to share a Digi with several processes.

I just tried to install the addon through Kodi, I get no audio. I set `hdparam` in `config.txt` and my sound cards show up in aplay -L, I tried setting every index but nothing will produce sound.

I am running snapcast server on a different computer, but It can see the client and shows that it is sending to it, but nothing comes out of the speakers.

I can run snapcast client from docker (using the kodi docker addon), and it *does* play audio, so I think this plugin is not being configured correctly. Any ideas?

Please provide the output of the following command:

aplay -L

and specify which device you intend to use

Hi all,

Thank's in advance,

journalctl -u service.snapclient

Hello,

is there a possibility to stream spotify music with an Libreelec addon?

Thanks.

There are:

- Kodi: select Kodi from Airplay/Bluetooth devices from your Spotify app

- Librespot addon: select Librespot@LibreELEC from your Spotify app

- Snapserver and Snapclient addons: configure Snapserver to stream Airplay or Librespot, install Snapclient on multiple devices for multiroom, select Snapcast from your Spotify app

Librespot does not exit upon network failure.This is a known bug that no developer was able to fix up to now, see eg Panic does not exit · Issue #226 · librespot-org/librespot · GitHub. One solution is to use a stable network connection.

If you think pulseaudio is the problem, then use ALSA mode: Librespot for LibreELEC only uses pulseaudio in Kodi mode, to stream to Kodi.

As for disabling Librespot during Kodi playback, it is an implementation choice: the user of Kodi (me) has precedence over Spotify users (my teenagers). If you value this feature less than I do, feel free to change the corresponding Python code here LibreELEC.tv/ls_player.py at master · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

Coders are welcome!

Seems to be the right approach, yes

Make sure to install current tinc 1.1 and to use the settings linked in my previous post on the PC.

On LibreELEC, the host file is generated according to tinc addon settings and stored in /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/http://service.system.tinc/Local.

Place remote host files in /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/http://service.system.tinc/Remotes.

I had written this: tinc: rework by awiouy · Pull Request #2613 · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

tinc for LibreELEC uses current tinc 1.1 and the following settings: LibreELEC.tv/tinc.conf at 8045e0d010b16233a4154c80b3d65126c7b5e493 · awiouy/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

Let me know if you need help

There’s an addon for that: tinc.

Bad news, sorry: Keyboard Layout · Issue #3 · patrikolausson/dispmanx_vnc · GitHub

Quote from kibkib

I unistalled the plugin, deleted the settings folder, installed again, but i still get the same error.

Librespot connects to the backend

Got a premium account?

Raspberry Pi VNC or TigerVNC?

I have to admit that I never tried other keyboard layouts than US/UK because this is all I have.

Hi.
Thanks for the share.

Any chance this could help for non premium users like me?

This was discussed at librespot but not implemented. Nothing to be expected.

Hi together,

I'm struggling for hours now and cannot get it running on my raspi3, LE9.0 Milhouse builds.

Earlier in this thread it seemed Milhouse builds are not captured by this addon. However, this is shoud not the case for librespot 9.0.113 (received through installing from repo) any more, right?

Hi

Librespot is known to run under LibreELEC 8.2 and 9.0

You need a Spotify premium account

Once Librespot is installed, select it from one of your Spotify apps and play tracks

Known issues:

- libespot starts before network is available: set wait for network in LibreELEC settings

- wrong credentials: leave username and password blank

- no sound: increase volume from Spotify app, select audio device or switch to Kodi mode

Also, describe your issue in more details:

- LibreELEC system and version

- Spotify app system and version

- describe what you do and where you think you have a problem
