Is anyone else having this issue or a similar issue?

Thanks.

I have had problem with Spotify it self jumping to next track if it was some problem with streaming the track.
Had similar problem when using fast forward to much and when pressing play again sound strart to stutter and sometimes give up and jump to next track

(On a side track, when using fast forward playback time get lost sometimes and at the end of track playtime is higher than track time.)

Check your log to see if you have buffer underrun or CPU use issues

Tried this because I want to get rid of the hassle of compiling spotyxbmc2.

The plugin starts, I enter my login details and I get to the home screen. From there, nothing works though. Nothing in news, in playlists, it just lists the number of playlists that I have (51) but I can't see them & search doesn't give any results.

System info:

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch)
Release: 12.04

XBMC 11.0~git20120321.14feb09-0ubuntu1~ppa1~oneiric

script.audio.spotimc-0.1-alpha4.zip

Which skin are you using? Spotimc has some similar issues with Transparency on Linux, but they will be fixed with the new alpha I'm about to release. Anyway, please let me see a log file, just to be sure.

So far I have two things I like to fix (or maybe just me that don't know)

1. If I go out of Spotimc and eg. play som video I can't start Spotimc again. When I try to start the add-on I get the turning wheel and then script failed script.audio.spotimc. Have to restart XBMC to get it working again

2. Using crossfade (8 sec) with good luck for my FLAC music files, but in Spotimc I get stutter in the last few sec when the next song start playing. If i change in the midle of a song the crossfade work as expected (fade down -> playing both -> fade up new song).

Compared to akezeke solution, it's less integrated and still lack some features but it has the big advantage of being a stand alone plugin.
Features request (sorry ):

- add an "api" like the youtube plugin has (you can play a youtube video using the JSON api "VideoPlaylist.Add", { file: "plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&videoid=...@" }). When done, we will be able to integrate the plugin in xbmc web interfaces or imagine a lot of fancy stuff like greasemonkey scripts.

- build an /artist/albums/tracks tree from stars item. I love this feature from spotyXBMC

Quote:A web interface is planned for a future release, but I think that lots of feature request and fixes should go first. Anyway, like you already said, would open the doors to make lots of cool stuff!

On the other hand, when you say "build an /artist/albums/tracks tree from stars item" are you referring to the toplists? Perhaps I'm missing something there...

(2012-04-10 10:02)neoflex Wrote:  For the tree, it's not related to top lists. In fact, I am referring to what spotiXBMC is doing, i.e. extracting artists and albums info for all stared items and then propose a hierarchical view of those tracks (artists>albums>tracks).
