I've tried to play, spotify:track:2CYhKfcgrxziIkBLs8cPd0 which i have in one of my playlsits. The track does not appear in "real spotify" but shows here. Need to check for permissions and stuff.

Hm, when I try to play that track I get the correct exception since the track is not available in Spotify. It does show up in the Spotify client, though:

var track = spotify.createFromLink('spotify:track:2CYhKfcgrxziIkBLs8cPd0');
spotify.player.play(track);
Error: Track not playable

    ...

I also tried to put it in a playlist and play it, same result.

So what do you mean by crashing? A segmantation fault or any of that kind? Because the exception is expected, you need to wrap your player.play calls in try/catch blocks. I guess I should mark methods that throw such exceptions in the documentation.

confirm if track is available in region associated with your account. if you have US region, and you try to play track only available for GB region, it will not play, though, will show up on spotify.
