What's the name of the Spotify process?

jedistack commented 3 years ago

@AnonymouX47 in Windows file directory it's C:/Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Spotify/Spotify.exe you can use this instead of shutil.which("Spotify") if that command isn't working, which it wasn't for me, just dont move spotify and that should work

Already fixed and merged into the main repo... you can do a git pull to reflect the changes on your side.

See #29

@ceceba223 Is it working fine on Manjaro now?

AnonymouX47 commented 3 years ago

@ceceba223 Did you install Spotify from the snap store?

If so, please, simply add /snap/bin/ to your $PATH. This will make shutil.which() to find the executable. See here. Creating another case in the script for snap installs would be unnecessary.

I'll probably add info about this to the README.

Thanks.
