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?
