📝 Description

WebNowPlaying standalone is archived on 4 March 2023 and is no longer properly working with the one that comes with Spicetify as an extension. It displays the typical N/A for title, artist, and missing artwork.

As seen on WebNowPlaying README.md:

The WebNowPlaying Rainmeter plugin has been rewritten to take advantage of the new adapter library for easier implementation. The source code for the new version can be found here

Upon installing the new WNP rmskin, it works perfectly again.

Spotify has been restored multiple times, same result. I've yet to been able to verify if it's tied to the specific rainmeter skin or Spicetify itself, so there needs some more witnesses. Please let me know if there's anything else I should know or missed.

All issues with getting data from spotify are resolved by https://github.com/spicetify/spicetify-cli/commit/40adf67a6771d2811f17dfd734b68d0b225c4910. The extension in description states Provides media information and controls to WebNowPlaying-Redux-Rainmeter, but also supports WebNowPlaying for Rainmeter 0.5.0 and older
