Hi,

Until plugin is available, i use the following trick to listen spotify in my living room through XBMC:

- In my PC, i have installed DSBridge in Spotify folder. Basically, this is a small program that allows you to stream Spotify through your network

- Then, i have created a strm file (http://www.xbmc.org/wiki/?title=HOW-TO_p...io_streams). The content of my strm file is http://192.168.1.3:8124/ , where 192.168.1.3 is the ip of my PC

- Open the strm from XBMC and voilá, you can listen Spotify through your XBMC

I have followed your guide, and added
<source>
<name>Spotify Stream</name>
<path pathversion="1">http://192.168.0.100:8124</path>
</source>
to my sources.xml

I run spotify for windows, and I have added dsbridge.ini, dsound.dll and lame_enc.dll to my spotify folder.

When I start to play spotify, I have then new icon in the tray. Its blue.

Then when I press the stream in XBMC, the music on my spotify stops, and the icon turns green. BUT, I don't get the music in XBMC.

What can be wrong?

Its like XBMC freeze, and I have to restart it.

EDIT: I thought I could add the line in a source, but I now understand that I had to create the *.strm

And now it works. Thanks.

The metadata isn't working for me. I also don't get the covers.

Is there something special I have to do?
