In a couple of days I think, it depends on how my spare time works out.

and "git clone git://github.com/akezeke/xbmc.git" is correct? cant get it to work...

I used spotyxbmc2 instead and it worked, but then i had problems when i tried to sudo make install. "cant find xbmc.bin"


Confused

That should be .../akezeke/spotyxbmc2.git, I have now updated the readme Smile

"cant find xbmc.bin" means that the build failed, there should be an error message at the end of the make process, no?

There might be a dependency that are not installed correct or maybe there is some error in my code (compiled fine here 30 minutes ago).

Will this be available for XBMC for OSX as well?

seems like i missed some error last night when i tried to install it the first time.
Today i managed to get it up an running!
But one problem remain... i have configured spotify but i dont manage to see the spotify library. i just cant enter the music library mode?
Its tricky to see what you are actually doing in the youtube clip...

Would be very helpfull if you can describe what you are actually pressing to get to the spotify part, and if there is any other settings that need to be configured in order to get to that view etc

Im so eager to get this stuff running Big Grin

Just press left and select enable library, if its grayed out it means I missed the part that allows empty libraries, if so add a couple of mp3 and you are good to go. I will check the code if I missed the library stuff...

Ive done a clean install of Ubuntu 11.04 (Desktop), and compiled and installed spotyxbmc2 with no errors.

I load up XBMC, goes in the music addons, set my username and password, saves, and then quit XBMC (as per instructions). I start it up, adds an music location and scans in some mp3's so I can enable the library. Library enabled and activated, but no spotify.

On the previous version I used, I got an spotify menu item along with albums, songs, etc.

How do I access the spotify menus? If I try to execute the addon, nothing happens (settings, etc. works fine) and now Im stuck.

A little help please? Smile
