(Win7 32 bit, XBMC RC2.)

I still have this problem. Happens every 3-4 songs I play. Will try to make a log for it later to see if i can figure it out. Any ideas why this is happening?

any update on this did you fix the playlist problem yet

Keep up the great work and hopefully dev one for ATV2 finally

Thanks

Tracks are served to XBMC as http streams. For some unknown reason these are requested by XBMC from many separate threads (it opens several streams for a single track), behavior that in the end causes the track skip issue.

I have a workaround for that, and if tests are successful, it hopefully will go on the next alpha.

It takes nearly 15s to load 100 playlists, so it won't take more than a minute to load ~200. It would be nice if you could send me a log file, and wait a minute since the playlist load was requested (so any possible timeout errors appear on the logs). Thanks!

Is there any way we can get some screenshots added to the OP?

Sure here is my LOG file you requested, I hit playlist and let it sit for about 6 min nothing showed up and I exited to get you this LOG
Please advise the solution, thank you

Hi,

I am using Crystalbuntu on a ATV1 / Linux on Eden RC2 with Cyrus skin. I've tried to use the plugin but am getting a script error when I go into it and the initial rotating icon apprears briefly. I never get a login screen on the first run. I've tried to reboot and restart XMBC but same result.

Here is a log file and it might relate to Python versions but I thought Eden was standardised on that now.

Thanks for any input you can provide and for developing this, its what many of us have been waiting for!

Can't thank you enough for this been waiting on a proper XBMC "app" for Spotify for ages and although I've just installed it, it looks great and works a treat so far. I have Spotify apps on my mobile and PC and at last XBMC.

I was wondering if you receive donations to encourage you in the development of this?

I'm running XBMCBuntu latest

Just having a problem getting it to remember my login details for Spotify, otherwise amazing. Edit--sorry my mistake, by complete coincidence the card they billed had expired a few weeks ago and they couldn't rebill on my monthly anniversary date which was yesterday, fixed now and logging in fine.

Sorry I can't understand the meaning of OP , but it's true that there are no screenshots available. The github project page would be a good start.

Thanks! A brief look shows lots of timeout errors, but the key must be there. I'll continue investigating.

Probably related to some XML comments on the skin code that the plugin is unable to parse. Almost sure that is the same bug that happens with the refocus skin. I'm already preparing a fix for it, so it may work also for Cyrus.

Don't worry about that, as long as I can find spare time for it development will go on. Has been like that since I started a year and a half ago Anyway, thank you!

This is an extremely well made addon! Thanks so much!

Do you have plans to implement the radio too?
