Track error (again)

[ivars777]

When trying to get track url, "Track error" is returned (search etc. functions work). Track is playable in browser and desktop client. What is the reason (may be it is connected with depreciation of API v0.x on December 17, see http://devnews.spotify.com/2013/12/17/deprecation-of-spotify-apps-api-0-x/)?

Python 2.7 (32), Windows 8 (64), last version of module from git. Test script:

from spotify_web.spotify import SpotifyAPI, SpotifyUtil, Logging
import sys

Logging.log_level=3
sp = SpotifyAPI()
sp.connect(sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2])
uri = "spotify:track:0dEIca2nhcxDUV8C5QkPYb"
track = sp.metadata_request(uri)
print track.artist[0].name + " - " + track.name

url = sp.track_uri(track)
print url

Result:

Same issue with the higher level functions in the friendly Spotify object too.

I don't think it has anything to do with the API deprecation. This lib used the Websocket connection used by the web player.

The last fix for this issue can be found here: https://github.com/Hexxeh/spotify-websocket-api/commit/08ee32679cd874047686b211af71fee977c6a98a#diff-684a7972973ebd32bb65015e557286a2R201

I'm having a hunt, but very little luck at the moment.

Spotify appear to be blocking the User-Agent. About to push an update.
