hey @Hottorun, the cureent version of spotify player doesn't depend on Spotify app to play songs it uses the first active client or you can select one using select device command

jatindotdev commented 9 months ago

can you check if there's a active client using select device command

Hottorun commented 9 months ago

Could you maybe give me a little guide. That would be appreciated. I sadly don't know these softwares. Thank you

+1 to this issue, I get an Uknown error pop-up message when I choose the Toggle Play/Pause command from Raycast and the Spotify client on macOS is not opened, but works fine if the client is already opened.

It only shows an active device when you have the Spotify client open. I've selected it, but if I quit it, the Toggle Play/Pause still errors out.

looks like the script fails to start spotify

peduarte commented 7 months ago

I believe the issue is that when you press play without having the Mac App running, it will try and play it from whatever "Spotify Connect" device it finds connected to your account.

In my case, it starts playing at home, even though I am in my office.

What we could do, when you press play:

  1. Check if there is an active device
  2. If yes, play from there and communicate which device its playing from in the Toast/HUD component
  3. If not, play from Mac App — this needs to be launched first via AppleScript (check menu bar command for that)

Does #9682 address this?

peduarte commented 7 months ago

I just looked at it, and not really. I'll comment there
