does this add-on support ''spotify connect'' so I could use spotify app on my tablet?

[LegeDoos]

Since a week my Openelec installation crashes as soon as I press play in SpotiMC. Reinstalled the plugin, problem stays. Anyone else experiencing this? Want to know if this is a SpotiMc/Spotify problem or that my raspberry pi has an problem....

Is there a way to have two different users on this addon?

[pettergulbra]

I have now tried to change the name of the Spotimc addon, so I can have two diffrent running on the system.
I can get two installed, but it won`t ask for two accounts, it will just use the same one.

It will install as two separate addons, in both addon folder and the addon data folder.

The problem seems to be that it can`t see that it should be two different logins.
What else do I have to recode?

I have edited these files, addon.xml, default.py and spotimc.py like this:
Addon.xml:

As you can see, I have added "extra" to the addon id. To make it work twice, but still no luck.
I have also changed the name of the main folder inside the zip to match what I have done in the files.

Hope there are some kind people that can help me. :-)

Hi everyone. I love the Spotimc addon. Unfortunately something has gone wrong with it on my osmc raspi1 set up. If anyone can help me figure out how to fix it I'd be super happy. kodi.log detail below:

Hi,

Looks Great
Could you please share how you installed it.
It does not seem to be available on SuperRepo for helix.
Did you download the zip directly? If so where from.

Cheers,
Nic

Trying to install this on my Amazon FireTV's Kodi 14.2 install. This is the error I get on launch:

OSError
[Errno 1] Operation not permitted:
"/storage/emulated/o/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi..."

I've installed many other add-ons that work fine. I'm sure this error has something to do with how the FireTV handles its storage. Has anyone else had success with this? Is there a workaround/fix? I'd love to get Spotimc running on my FireTV, it looks great!

[alton987]

Did you ever get this working on the firetv? I have the same issue.

[Fofer]

Nope.

Anyone know of a fix to this yet?

[iAmRenzo]

It's so sad there isn't a new release of this.
I'd very much like an option to view saved albums. Now there not showing up. Only if you create a playing for the item.
The Spotify app on mobile gives you a dedicated view for albums. Any change there is an update to this great add-on to add another top button for this?

[didier68]

I just install spotimc on xbmc 13.0 gotham it's great a good job and thank you to the creator
Everything works smoothly.
Thank you from FRANCE

[zilexa]

I am delighted development has stopped!
Yes indeed. Because 1 person cannot be expected to deliver a ful Spotify experience by building such an unofficial addon. Hell no.
Spotify has brought us Spotify Connect. It would be fantastic if Kodi would support that as an addon/service.

I only need an addon on Kodi that will allow me to use Spotify normally on any phone/device, controlling the Spotify instance in Kodi. So I really do not want to have a full featured Spotify INSIDE Kodi (unless it came from Spotify officially), only the part that is needed to play on Kodi, while controlling everything using the official Spotify app on my phone.
(Same goes for Youtube, I just want to be able to send youtube videos to Kodi from my phone).

For example:
On my Windows laptop I have installed Spotify.
On my Android phone I have installed Spotify.

Now I can do everything on my phone, but I can choose easily in the app whether I want the music to play from the laptop or the phone (2 choices)

Now I just want to have Kodi as third option. That's all. Nothing more. Hell the Kodi addon doesn't even need to have a UI, it could even be a service running on the background. Is this possible?

[pettergulbra]

I`m almost feeling the same way.

But i do not always have my phone in my hand. I like to be without the phone, I like to be a littlebit old fashion.
I don`t need to reachable all the time. That`s why there should be a little UI, maybe simpler.
But still, i work as you also say.

:-)
