Includes.xml is correctly patched (as you can see the Spotimc specific definitions are there).(2012-11-05, 21:47)mazkolain Wrote: This is an issue I'm aware of, but unable to reproduce. Would be great if you could send me a pastebin of the full log file and two additional skin files (while Spotimc is still running): Font.xml and Includes.xml. Based on the log file you posted they should be in C:\Users\xbmchd\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.confluence\720p\. Please send me another couple of pastebins. This time I will need the addon.xml definitions of your current confluence skin. Since the skin is probably picked from two different locations, you cand find these files on the following folders:
My suspicion is that based on the skin version, XBMC is picking a skin which is not patched by Spotimc, and thus, causes the UI issues you are experiencing. Thanks in advance!

That cleared up the issue entirely. Thank you for all your hard work, both coding and debugging! btw here are the pastbins if you still want to see them (these are from when it was still broken): Program Files - addon.xml Users - addon.xml RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - mythmon - 2012-11-11 (2012-07-03, 11:40)mazkolain Wrote:(2012-06-29, 20:12)Luguber Wrote: With xbmcbuntu and spotimc beat1, if you exit spotimc with the exit button in the app, you can restart it just fine. But if you press the home button, you cannot get back into spotimc without restarting.Didn't have a chance to look at this issue lately. It seems that the running Spotimc instance gets lost in the wild, but have no idea how to bring it back (if it's possible). Thanks for the remainder! Any progress on this? It would be great to be able to bind a key to launch Spotimc, or switch to it if it is already active. RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - EvilUnicorn - 2012-11-11 I see the change log on the files section at github shows beta 3....the download section has only beta 2. Can beta 3 be downloaded? RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - NicB - 2012-11-12 Great addon! Work as it should and no problems (had to restart XBMC once after install). Some features missing: * When playing from a Playlist and selecting the "Playlists tab", the current playlist should be highlighted/selected. * Random from Playlists * Repeat * When playing from long playlists, the list should scroll down with current song so you are able to see what track that is playing, and what song that is next. * Quick way to select menu tabs when in a long playlist, without having to scroll throgh the whole list to the beginning first. * Add/remove track/artist to playlists * In search, result lists, I could select "Browse Artist/Album". But after selecting Album, I can´t select "Browse Artist" to see other albums with that artist. * When selecting "Now playing" you should be able to browse current playlist. * If possible, main menu for XBMC should be accessible.from Spotimc, with Spotimc playing in the background..As when you play music from your music library via XBMC. Keep up the good work!

From the above pastebins I see that both skin versions are the same, so XBMC should be picking the one in the userdata folder (if I'm not mistaken). Perhaps you are running XBMC with an unprivileged account? Will give it a spin... (2012-11-11, 11:49)mythmon Wrote: Any progress on this?

Thanks a lot for the suggestions. If you encounter more bugs/suggestions feel free to post them on the github project page, so they get tracked properly: https://github.com/mazkolain/spotimc/issues RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - jackmeehan - 2012-11-13 Mazkolain, I have to hand it to you... Never have I come across an XBMC add-on that "just works" as well as this does. By far the best add-on I've come across, both in terms of aesthetics and function. Really well done, congrats and thank you! New Spotify user now that they have opened the floodgates to us Irish RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - freigeist - 2012-11-17 Excellent plugin! Highly recommended, unfortunately beta 2 crashes on openelec, beta 1 is working, but I have a problem getting results from artist search (stays on busy icon). Beta 3 on it's way?

Perhaps you are running XBMC with an unprivileged account? Will give it a spin... Yes, upon switching back to Confluence SpotiMC worked there as well. It might be because I have not done anything with the skin since I updated from XBMC 10 to 11. So, maybe, some of the settings did not get properly setup. (Compared to a bare version 11 install. XBMC is running under an Administrator level account.

Is there a way to get the current release (Beta 2) to work or is there a newer version coming which will work? RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - RiChaDo - 2012-11-20 well after installing Spotimc 1.0-beta1 I got that some tracks work other tracks give audio errors and no sound but track still runs. I checked for update & installed Spotimc 1.0-beta2 but this time audio error on startup & it keeps on loading screen... I use a offical build off XBMCbuntu 11 If I change to beta frodo will this problem be gone?! If so how do I update my xbmc to beta version? RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - mazkolain - 2012-11-21 Hi, I'm happy to announce the next beta release, labelled beta3. This is mainly a bug fix release which addresses some of the issues beta2 introduced, plus some additional fixes. Please follow this link to download the latest package. As usual, the changelog can be viewed here. And now some pending answers: (2012-11-13, 22:54)jackmeehan Wrote: Mazkolain, I have to hand it to you...

Regarding the beta2 Openelec crash, the beta3 release I've just announced provides a workaround for this.

On the other hand, some recent commits on XBMC's main branch have resolved most of the major issues Spotimc suffered. In conclusion, Spotimc should be pretty functional with the latest Frodo beta (beta1, at the time of writing), but there are still some rough edges yet to polish, specially when exitting the addon.

Hopefully beta3 fixes them all. The audio errors you mentioned sound strange. I would like to see a debug log of this... RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - Frank-NL - 2012-11-22 Works really well on OpenELEC with a nightly build! You can't disable caching though, it makes the plugin crash on startup, and if you have dirty regions set to 1, the time of the song only updates when you move around on the screen. RE: [RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - RiChaDo - 2012-11-22 yess it works!! thnx Let's give my neighbours the fun of me using this The log still there after updating to beta3? if so can you tell me where to look for it? |
