Hey, this is a great addon, thank you very much. I use spotify for all my music so this is the one thing missing from my pi media centre.
The only thing thats not working for me (and i see other people saying it works for them) is music fan art. I get the thumbnail image from spotify of the current tracks cover art. However, the rest of the now playing is just a black screen. I suspect its not a plugin thing (related to this addon) but something else. Anyone able to point me in the right direction?
Many thanks, and thanks for the great addon.

class StreamQuality:
Low = 0
Medium = 1
High = 2
Atm not as it's hardcoded to HIGH but I can add it if really needed.
Just assumed everybody wants the high quality ;-)

Hi Marcelveldt,
thanks a lot for your work.
On my Raspi3, navigation through the addon is rather slow. Every step of going from MyMusic->Playlists->MyPlaylist takes 3 to 10 seconds to load. It feels like the lists are not cached at all.
I saw in an earlier post that you planned to integrate some form of caching. I was wondering if this has been done and if I could somehow verify, that caching is actually working.
Thanks

I can not run the plugin, when I open the kodi hangs and it shuts down.
I'm using, MAC OS X - KODI JARVIS

so, ive got a problem that i think involves this addon but not 100%.. so hopefully the dev can see this and consider the possibilities, maybe has an idea.
so, i had my kodi (raspberry pi) setup all how i wanted it. Movies, TV, Youtube, Twitch and Spotify installed, nothing else. All worked great for about a week. Then all of a sudden, neither spotify, twitch or youtube would load anything (they wouldnt even load the folder lists). Just a generic HTTP Error, nothing special in the logs either.
Ive spent probably the best part of a week tearing my hair out trying to work it out. So tonight, i reinstalled everything, deleted all kodi data, and reinstalled. it all went well, youtube was working fine, twitch also. Installed Aeon Nox, all fine. Then, i tried to setup spotify, i put in my user and password, it sat on working. Then failed (raspberry pi so won't auth), i then copied my cache file to the correct location from a windows machine to the pi. Restarted kodi, tried to launch it and errored again. Then i noticed that youtube and twitch had both stopped working also.
so, i dunno entirely what causes it but between every change i made, on a brand new kodi install, i went and checked the youtube and twitch apps. They all worked up until the spotify error. Now, none of those addons will ever work at all. Just a generic HTTP Error (the most detailed thing in debug logs is error(0) )...
Now, i know this is for the pi and probably not technically supported but something really weird has to be going on if it manages to break two other plugins from loading anything. Its like its breaking all HTTP API calls (although i really done see how this is possible?).
Anyways, yeah im not trying to point blame, merely wanna work out what's is going on. Its super weird. I'm currently reinstalling everything again and leaving spotify out to see if the problem happens again. Hopefully this sparks some sort of idea and can be figured out.
Thanks,
Piercy
edit: After re-installing all again except for spotify everything is working as expected.
edit2: could this be related to the the requirement of a web browser? I know theres a work around with pi but maybe thats where its causing an issue?
