volspotconnect2 doesn't connect anymore #130

Closed raffomartini closed 6 years ago

raffomartini commented 6 years ago

Hi,

I've been using this plugin for months, today it suddenly stopped working: I can see Volumio from the spotify app, but it doesn't connect.

Where can I see the logs and figure out what's going on?

thank you

@raffomartini Hi, did you solved problem? (i have the same problem)

serwinch commented 6 years ago

Me too. I notice that it works with the PC application, with the IPad application, but no more with the Android application.

raffomartini commented 6 years ago

TL;DR; it started working on its own after few hours, I suspect some issue with the Spoty API on their side but I have no way to confirm it.

Afraid I never really went to the bottom of it.. Chronology

Conclusion: as it recovered "on its own" I suspect it was something on Spoty API but - not knowing where to look for clues - it is only a wild guess.

This is a known issue due to a change in spotify. Install the plugin from my repo or wait for an update of the official version

Thanks balbuze. It stopped working again today, your update is SUPEEER timely. I have it working now.

Here's how I solved it:

Link to the plugin: https://github.com/balbuze/volumio-plugins/raw/master/plugins/music_service/volspotconnect2/volspotconnect2.zip (source https://github.com/balbuze/volumio-plugins/issues/135)

How to do manual installation now that the option is not in the GUI anymore:

Login to volumio via ssh ssh volumio.local -l volumio (default password is volumio)

cd /data/INTERNAL/
wget https://github.com/balbuze/volumio-plugins/raw/master/plugins/music_service/volspotconnect2/volspotconnect2.zip
miniunzip volspotconnect2.zip 
volumio plugin install
