Spotify + OSMC = <3

I havent rebooted… doing it now.

your not much for reading are ya ? :wink:

same message after reboot :frowning:

Make sure port 8000 is free so that you dont have another program using that in your router or alternatively change port

And i do hope that you have a PREMIUM account else all of this has been for nothing

yes I have premium, will check ports soon. busy for next hour

Also, be sure to install the repository zip not the specific versions

Ok.

I had used plugin.audio.spotlight-1.2.0-armv7-experimental.zip

I uninstalled.

I then installed Download repository and followed everything Toast said.

I then changed port number to 8002, as port 8000 is used by security cameras on my network.

I still get the same error.

and you did do the reboot after changing ports ?

I got it to work on my Vero by using ‘plugin.audio.spotlight-1.2.0-armv7-experimental.zip’ and applying this patch:

https://bitbucket.org/re/spotlight/issue-attachment/18/re/spotlight/1401991471.02/18/0001-Prepend-internal-libraries-to-the-python-path.patch

It prepends internal libraries paths instead of appending them to avoid picking up random libraries with similar names from the general system.

That addon looks like shit i know it works and everything but the interface is a wreck

Could you expand a little on why you think the interface is a wreck?

We should remember that this has been created out of someone’s free time. It seems functional, so if the interface is a little rough around the edges, it’s not a big deal.

Be nice.

I like the interface, but each to their own.

Some people care about how curly the pigs tail is, people like me are just happy that there’s bacon.
