Big up to Tompen, everything seems to work perfectly.
akezeke master is now in sync with upstream xbmc (pre-Frodo).
I can now enjoy spotify within XBMC AND AudioEngine!

I've only tested on linux (xbmcBUNTU, ION). Please, report any problem here or even better on github if you are sure of what you're doing Wink

Could you spare your xbmcbuntu version somewhere? I would love to have that ;-). Thanx
I would really appreciate it if someone could give me a dl link to a precompiled xbmcbuntu (live) version with spotyxbmc2!

from what I understood, maybe I am wrong, there is a license incompatibility between xbmc and libspotify so that we cannot legally distribute a binary package of spotiXBMC2.

akezeke or someone from the xbmc team could clarify this for you maybe, if you ask them.

I'm about to install openelec with spotyxbmc2, on a Nettop Asrock ION 3D 152B.

It's suppose to be a gift for a friend this saturday.

The problem is that I'm not at home, but at my parents house. I got no access to a computer with linux, and I can't compile a build myself.

Would someone be so kind and send me a PM, and maybe help me with a precompiled openelec with spotyxbmc2 support, that will work great on that HTPC?

Thanks.

excellent, thanks. akezeke merged it.
Did someone checked if the JSON interface still work with non spotify songs since the big merging?

Will this work in principle?

1) Use the precompiled exe file to install spotyxbmc2 (the one from post 868 in this thread - http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=67012&page=22)
2) copy my current xbmc install over to my brand new spanking spotyxbmc2 install by using the "portable" switch trick.

Any help much appreciated.

Can anyone help me with my question quoted above?

I'm basically asking - how do i get spotyxbmc2 working on my windows xp system?
I'd like to use spotyxbmc2 in Eden because I have audio problems with any version after Eden.
Can i transfer all my settings and addons etc over to a fresh spotyxbmc2 instal (by using the /p switch perhaps?)

I have compliled this before, but I just built a new box (AMD A8 running Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit if that matters) and I can't for the life of me get it to compile now. I am using the exact same procedure as before. Here is my output from sudo make install. Can one of you guys take a look and see if you see anything glaring that I am not seeing?

Thanks in advance!

Maybe this is a stupid question, but can I just copy the files created when I compiled it on my old box and put them on my new box? Does it need to be compiled on the machine it is going to run on?
