[WIP] XBMC + Spotify = True (an XBMC implementation that uses Spotify's official API)

Spotify is new in Germany (Since a few days). So i just compiled the xbmc-pvr-spotify sources a few houres ago for my 2 Linux HTPC's. Im excited, works perfectly!!!!

Hi, anyone know a way to add CDart support for the spotify starred albums ?

Thanks.

Thank you so much Akezeke for developing this! Great job.

I will post the downloads as soon as they are available.

Fairtekservices, Has there been an update for the Mac version? I'd be willing to test for you if necessary

I have not had much time to work on it. I have not yet been able to make it compile without an error. I am still currently working on it. Sorry for the delayed response.

I will keep you posted!

As for the other user who mentioned his antivirus going off it is definitely a false positive. Try scanning it with some other Anti-Virus applications. Which anti-virus are you using btw?

I have Eden installed without spotyxbmc2 and have spent many many hours getting it the way i want it.

I have a spotyxbmc2 executable that I compiled 6 weeks ago. Can't remember if it was dharma or eden beta2.

Is there anyway I can get spotify into my new eden installation without having to recomile and do all my xbmc config again?

could i try this?

1. use fairtekservices instructions on post 764 to install xbmc with spotify
2. download the new eden executable file and install over the top of my fresh me xbmc with spotify
3. then just start a portable mode folder, and save my previous portable mode folder into that?

No. I have already tried this. Once you install the new version spotify is gone. It is built directly into the music section so it gets overwritten by the new XBMC build.

Will spotimc do the job? (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=125147)

WTF? Where did THAT little gem appear from?!?!

The addon in the thread you posted works great for me. I now have a fully functional spotify addon in my xbmc Eden 11 . yay. whoop.

It is only an alpha so still has problems and doesnt work on every platform. but works for me on windows xp with one issue only. It skips to next track when its only halfway through a track. It does this every 4 or 5 songs.

Thanks for posting mrburvall.

Hello,

I keep getting this error when im running the make command. I dont know very much about linux so I just followed what was in the readme. I have a fresh install of xbmcbuntu on my machine.

Hello, how do install this on a apple tv 2?

Got premium now, and pretty excited to start using xbmc with spotify

nvm, see its only on windows/linux

still, trying it out on laptop, im on the step where i should get a c key or something from spotify dev, i have looked all over that sight 20 times, and i cant find any links for that, i just see.

Application keys

and lots of different libspotify for linux, darwin, osx, win32 etc


EDIT; i saw 20 posts back someone posted .exe file from beta 1, while this is great, do anyone know if this will come like a addon, like spotify on boxee box do. Or if someone can compile a 11.0 final with spotify addon. Greatly appreciated
