[RELEASE] Spotimc: Another Spotify music addon - mazkolain - 2012-03-09 18:14

I'm happy to announce the first public release of a music addon for Spotify that I've been working on for a while. The addon itself is written in pure python, and makes use of the official libspotify API.

You can grab the latest release from my website as an installable zip file:
http://azkotoki.org/downloads/category/spotimc/releases/

Please note that this work is still in alpha stage, so don't expect something ready for prime time. It was tested on Linux, Windows and Mac (not so extensively there). If you have problems getting it to work please visit the FAQ:
https://github.com/mazkolain/spotimc/wiki/FAQ

If you think you found a bug, please file a bug report on the issue tracker:
https://github.com/mazkolain/spotimc/issues

Edit #1: I forgot to mention that this addon requires XBMC Eden to run. Older XBMC versions are not supported.

Edit #2 Here are some screenshots (click to enlarge):

Where is the log in for the plug in? I can't find it in settings anywhere? Do you have to add it manually somewhere?

As jolid said, a login window will appear when you run the addon. Another thing to note is that it's not compatible with ATV2 (yet).

Thanks! But there are some issues that need to be resolved before it reaches to stable. Anyway, i'm glad you liked the first release!

Wow this is incredible!

Windows 7 here and working really nicely. Very well thought out layout and functionality.

Big thanks

EDIT: If you want this adding to a repository so users can easily update just let me know and I'll put it on mine.

I agree with everyone else this is an amazing script. Also have anyone tried with the skin refocus. It don't seem to work with it. Its my primary skin and would to get this working on it!!

Request/suggestion

Option to controll with contexmeny ("c"):
1,que/unque song
2,star/unstar
3,add to playlist

mostly works good on ios with eden rc3 , i think playlists might not be working (or slow) on ipad 1 it crashes which might be down to the libspotify requirement not working for arm or something
