We have a use case where we want to start Spotify music playback of a playlist at a pre-selected trackIndex.
This is possible when connected to the Spotify app through the app remote by using:
SPTAppRemotePlayerAPI playItem:skipToTrackIndex:callback:.
However if the Spotify app isn't running in the background we need to launch it before connecting by calling SPTAppRemote authorizeAndPlayURI: or SPTSessionManager initiateSession. Here we can specify a playlist URI to initiate playlist playback when launching Spotify app, but we can't specify what playlist trackIndex we want to start playing when Spotify launches.
I would like to suggest additions to SPTAppRemote and/or SPTConfiguration to allow specifying skipToTrackIndex for associated playURI (if applicable) for when launching the Spotify app from the SDK.
