How to remove until it is fixed??

Just disable crossfade Cool

Leaving jokes apart, it's the only possible fix for now. There are some issues on the track streaming code that prevent crossfade from working properly. As said, stay tuned for the next release!

Awesome plugin!!
At least after I managed to get it running 8)
It seems when I had pyspotify installed (pyspotify-git from the archlinux AUR) those bindings conflicted with yours (both using the spotify module name), resulting in this import error:

I couldn't find any reference to that error, so I thought I'd post it, of course, if you want to fix it that'd be awesome Smile

First of all, thanks for reporting! Probably this issue was related to some strange problems with other libraries (CherryPy for example), so they should also be fixed now.

I committed a fix for this issue on the github repo. The fix consists in prepending paths instead of appending them, so python sees them before the system ones:

The addon should be usable from any country, as long as you are able to sign up to the service from yours. The only requirement to use the addon is a premium Spotify subscription.

The fix works like a charm, thanks!
