Thumbs Up

Working for me except that i can't connect to spotify.
I think it's because i have a facebook spotify account anyone can help me with that ?

I had this problem, and the solution was to get a device username and password. If you have a premium account, you can do that here:

Hi guys!

Have been using XBMC for a year and have so far managed to buy three new computers and set it up a bit everywhere.

I use the margro pvr built so I can see live tv. The question is - can I somehow add the spotify functionality without removing the pvr build?

Tried all sorts of things, any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Win 7 64 bits.
Margro Eden Pvr build.

You can use this git repo.It's a merge between pvr & spotyxbxmc2

Got this running on Openelec. Fantastic work Akezeke!

Will this be added as a plugin in any time soon`? Most say I love it, but for me, a non "geek", it's a bit hard to get it working on the latest version of XBMC. Tested the Beta1 with Spotify slipped in. Nice stuff.

Thank you so much Akezeke for developing this! Great job.

I will post the downloads as soon as they are available.

Fairtekservices, Has there been an update for the Mac version? I'd be willing to test for you if necessary Smile

  1. Install
  2. Start up XBMC
  3. Go to Music > Add-Ons > spotyXBMC
  4. Configure the spotyXBMC Add-On (Spotify Username and Password)
  5. Restart XBMC
  6. Enjoy! Smile

Norton says it contains this "Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP"
False positive?
Any one else?

Hi,

I have a strange problem.

I am running Eden beta 3 on my Asrock ION 330.

Before installing this Spotify implementation, everything works perfectly.

I manage to install Spotify fine, everything works as advertised and my playlists all work etc etc, however all video playback is now very very choppy.
It is like it halfed my machine's power, and sometimes it feels like watching something in 2-3 frames per second.

I tried reinstalling XBMC, and things are fine again, but as soon as I install this Spotify solution on top of it, the choppiness comes back.

Any ideas how I can fix this?
