No, that was exactly what I had in mind. Forget about my tcp/ip talk
:-)

I have checked several of the remote solutions that are hacked together
already. My thought that perhaps it was possible to use one of the
already existing remote solutions. By installing a packet sniffer it
would probably be easy to see what messages the remote application
(i.e. iPhone app, webpage, Android app) sends to the "server remote
application" (the part installed on the machine running Spotify). The
most promising project I've found is this: http://h3x.se/. It is
available today as a java app and works. But the interesting thing is
that the guy is developing a new version based on the OFFICIAL Spotify
api and it is my understanding that his solution will be able to stream
the sound as well. If not; we can use his library and the dsbridge
solution.

I've send the guy a message asking if he would be interested in using
his library for the squeezebox solution and he said many had asked for
that and that he was willing. So perhaps if you contact him you guys
could work something out?

If not I think it could be wise to wait a couple of weeks to see how
his C# library based on official Spotify api comes along and then I can
perhaps create some middleware between his app and you squeezebox
plugin?

I think we can make this happen :-)
