Unexpected Exit and Terminal Display Issues in ncspot with Spotify Free Account #1535

Open kelvinauta opened 1 week ago

kelvinauta commented 1 week ago

Describe the bug When using ncspot with a Spotify Free account, the application unexpectedly exits without any message for the user, leading to confusion. The terminal also displays strange characters upon certain actions like clicking or pressing keys.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open a terminal session using the kitty terminal.
  2. Use the Zsh shell.
  3. Launch ncspot with a Spotify Free account.
  4. Perform actions like clicking or pressing any key.
  5. Observe the terminal output and application crash.

Expected behavior The application should display an error message indicating that "ncspot does not work with Spotify Free, a Premium account is required" instead of crashing.

Screenshots N/A

Try to install it with Cargo instead of yay or pacman, use version
