RE: Spotify for Kodi - glk1001 - 2023-10-09
Hi,
I've managed to get the 'spotty' binaries working for Android 9. I tested the Spotify plugin 1.3.7 on Fire TV Cube and it works fine.
Unfortunately with Android 10+, Google changed the permissions structure making it very difficult for apps to run binaries. Effectively,
the binaries have to be specially bundled with an official Apk; but this doesn't fit the Kodi (unofficial) addon model.
I wonder whether other Kodi addons for Android have run into this problem. Or maybe not many addons need to run binaries.
RE: Spotify for Kodi - kthxbye - 2023-10-09
hey!
I believe my firetv is running android 7, if that somehow gives an oportunity for testing
RE: Spotify for Kodi - glk1001 - 2023-10-10
Should work. Go to https://github.com/glk1001/glk1001.github.io and follow the Kodi spotify install instructions in the README

wow awesome Ill give it a try soon! thanks!
RE: Spotify for Kodi - kthxbye - 2023-10-10
unfortunatly it errors with wrong login/pass the same way as before.
I uninstalled previous version I had (which was 1.3.6 I think)
and then installed 1.3.7. entered my username/pass in the configuration and ran it
upd: oh seems it needed a restart. was gonna do a clean start to collect the logs, and then it worked. Ill play with it further then!
upd#2: so far its been stopping playing every started song after some short time (10-30 seconds)
RE: Spotify for Kodi - glk1001 - 2023-10-10
Can you possibly paste a log somewhere. Thanks
RE: Spotify for Kodi - stehohrhase - 2023-10-10
i have install Kodi 20.2 and Spotify 1.3.7 on Windows 11.
Login did not work. Username and Passwort is correct. I have premium.
in the log I see:
uwinoqoloy (paste)
Any Idea?
RE: Spotify for Kodi - glk1001 - 2023-10-10
The error in the log is saying the plugin couldn't find the username in the settings file (KODI_HOME/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.audio.spotify/settings.xml).
Have you tried restarting Kodi? Otherwise have a look in that file and see if your username is there.
RE: Spotify for Kodi - stehohrhase - 2023-10-10
the file is there (c:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\plugin.audio.spotify\settings.xml)
With the correct dada, I have entered in the gui
<settings version="2">
<setting id="username">xxx</setting>
<setting id="password">yyy</setting>
<setting id="my_recently_played_playlist_name" default="true">My Recently Played</setting>
<setting id="gap_between_playlist_tracks" default="true">0</setting>
<setting id="categoryDefaultView" default="true" />
<setting id="playlistDefaultView" default="true" />
<setting id="artistDefaultView" default="true" />
<setting id="albumDefaultView" default="true" />
<setting id="songDefaultView" default="true" />
<setting id="appendArtistToTitle" default="true">false</setting>
</settings>

yeah here it is:
https://pastebin.com/8LRdkC50
It plays for some time, but then stops and skips to the next track + in a few situations it would error with wrong user/password, but that happened only 2 or 3 times
RE: Spotify for Kodi - stehohrhase - 2023-10-11
as workaround I entered my username in spotty_helper.py. This works fine.
I don't know, why password can read from settings.xml and username not.
RE: Spotify for Kodi - glk1001 - 2023-10-11
Yes, strange. The username is accessed through the Kodi function 'getSetting' which does not seem to be working.
Are there any other errors in the log file?

RE: Spotify for Kodi - Capslock - 2023-10-11
I have the same issue, with a mini N100 machine with Debian and Kodi freshly installed.
By the way, is it possible with this addon to have a "Spotify Receiver" as Librespot ? I didn't find something similar in the settings, so I guess not.

hi! the device is rooted amazon fire tv stick 4k. not sure if thats considered to be slow? it does handle most of the audio/video stuff I let it play, but spotify might be a different story in this context. mostly using it to stream some inet radio stations, mp3/flac/wav and videos from a nas
PS it did play much longer then 30 seconds in some cases. even played few songs without interrupting, so not sure about a particular times limit that is set somewhere?
PPS I looked up the specs - 4x ARM Cortex - A55 up to 2.0 GHz with 1.5gb of ram. not much ram, so could that be the case?
