First of all i want to thank you for making my HTPC complete!
Ever since i got spotify i wanted a way to use it on my HTPC, and now i can !

I couldn't find it in earlier post using the search function so i thought i would ask.


Is there a way to remotely control spotimc?
A webinterface could be used, or even better, a simple android/IOS app.
A app where everyone on the WiFi could add music in some kind of party mode, so they would only queue it, not change the current song, that would be awesome!

I don't like wasting power and i do not use my TV to play music, only to see what's playing.

I use playlist folders to organize album playlists because it allows me to easily play individual albums when I want or shuffle a whole genre.

Right now, I'm working around it by adding albums to both the folder and to a giant genre playlist. But in the future, if you have the time and it's possible, it would be fantastic to be able to play a playlist folder as well as the individual playlists.

Thanks

...is possibly the best plugin for xbmc ive seen!I looks so polished and has a great interface rather than just the crappy lists of other addons. The look of it is fantastic, its how all add ons should should, if you fancy taking a crack at an iplayer/itv/4od uk catchup addons, it would be amazing. It would finally bring some sort of resemblance to how this apps work on other devices.

Anyway enough rambling! I love the add on, cant wait for being able to add songs to playlists and queuing!

Edit: Can i donate to keep the great work coming?

A quick comment about an issue I had. I had Spotimc working on XBMC and it worked perfectly. However recently I had to reset my facebook password, rather than Spotimc prompting me for a new password I could get into the app fine and browse my lists etc. When I tried to start to play a song the application would just freeze and freeze XBMC requiring me to manually kill XBMC. I couldn't find a way to change my password so I ended up having to uninstall the app then manually removing the files in my \users directory. This is on Windows 7 64bit btw.

Like I said not an issue now as I have fixed it but maybe something you want to consider for future releases.

Absolutely fantastic add-on! Finally, I can listen to Spotify on through my HTPC without using Spotify's painfully awkward, non-remote-compatible application. Thank you!

I do have one suggestion for a future feature. Aside from queuing and adding to playlists, one thing that I don't think has been mentioned is the lack of support for playlist folders. I use playlist folders to organize album playlists because it allows me to easily play individual albums when I want or shuffle a whole genre.

I checked in the addons userdata folder (in application data\xbmc) for the spotimc folder, hoping it might contain the font in there (with the intention to swap it out), but it wasn't there so I'm guessing it's 'hard-coded' to use the Arial font?

cheers if anyone can help.

Could you explain playlist folders by example? I'm not seeing this feature anywhere in the desktop client (Windows)

Attention: when you delete spotimc.tff and just put another font file into the folder, spotimc won't start. You'll have to rename the new font to spotimc.ttf to get it working ! I had to make this mistake myself

And i can't browse my other playlists?

Any quickfix for this, or do we need to wait for an actual app for the spotimc?

You're right. I didn't read your original post closely enough. It appears that there is currently no way to queue stuff up remotely, but you can use XBMC Remote to move around in the playlist once it's playing.
