Restarting Spotify to skip ads #94

Open blacktooth opened 7 years ago

blacktooth commented 7 years ago

I am wondering if ads can be skipped by restarting Spotify whenever an ad starts playing. I tried it manually couple of times and it worked. If this works all the time, this will be a great feature for Spotifree. Spotifree can restart Spotify to get rid of the ad and mute if ad gets played immediately after restart. I am interested to contribute this feature.

Strangely the last time I tried something like this it wouldn't work because after reopening Spotify and playing one song it came an ad immediatly; but now it seems it works. I will investigate further...

If you want to contribute, i created the branch "method_relaunch". It would be very helpful if you compile it yourself and see how it works for you

Trying to compile "method_relaunch" branch but I get some errors. Anyone has compiled this and get it working?
