Can it be installed from your instructions on a livecd installation ?

Im running 10.1 installed to hd from livecd, im very happy with the bare system and dont want to run a full linux install on my asrock htcp.

Best regards.

@alex84

I dont know, I have never used xbmc live but I suppose it should work.

Akezeke, many thanks for your continued efforts.
I have tried following your instructions with with libspotify 0.08 but I get the following error towards the end of the "make" phase:

Have you any idea what is going wrong. Your previous instructions for libspotify 0.03 worked fine for me. I am running ubuntu maverick 64 bit.
Thanks.

Thanks.

It seems that libspotify didn't get installed correctly. Try to reinstall it and also try to install to an other path with prefix=...

I tryed the instructions on a natty 64 and it works, don't know if anything is different with maverick.

[Jackdaw]

I have tried this under natty 64 also but get precisely the same error.
I have tried installing libspotify with prefix=usr/local but this makes no difference too. I don't know what's going wrong.

[akezeke]

That's weird, I'm sure you installed the 64 bit version of the lib. Did the lib install correct? No errors?

[Jackdaw]

Yes to all.
I am using a minimal install, XBMCbuntu.
I will try later today on a full install to see if it works that way.

[Jackdaw]

It worked for me on a full install.
I can't see what is missing on my minimal install. As I say I was able to compile with the old 0.03 version and instructions.

[tsint]

This works fine for me except that it crashes when browsing playlists. Seems that the userdata passed to cb_imageLoaded contains corrupt data.

[akezeke]

@tsint

Is it crashing every time? Is it also crashing if you have only playlists without local files?

I have made a small fix that hopefully solves it, it works for me even if I have local files in playlists.

Please try the updated version and report back.

[Jackdaw]

This compiled and installed on a Lucid 64 bit minimal install: http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=XBMCbuntu
Many thanks for your efforts.

[tsint]

@akezeke: same problem with the new version, both with and without local tracks.

As a workaround I just return from the method, no thumbnail is loaded but I can browse the playlist and playback also works.

This is the row that causes the seg fault:

Code:

129: fileName.Format("%s", item->GetExtraInfo());

Ok, Iĺl take a look at it tomorrow!

[akezeke]

@tsint I am not able to reproduce the error you are seeing, I added a small fix that might solve it.

I have updated the visual studio 2010 files and added the needed files for making it work on windows!

I also created an addon that jumps to the spotyXBMC menu, it allows you to add spotyXBMC as a shortcut in the main menu. (it is not a spotify addon, simply a starter script)

[tsint]

Thanks, but the fault remains. I will give it a try during the weekend, are you also using libspotify 0.0.8?
