It is not possible due to the way CC device work. Basically, a "receiver'" application (JS/HTML), signed by Google, must be loaded inside the CC and then is ran from there. This is typically the way 3rd parties secure their content delivery. For example, Netflix would have their own auth (and more) verified and authenticated app loaded inside your CC and that's what communicates with their servers to grab the content. Spotify probably does the same. There is a "default receiver" that you can load and I'm using in CastBridge but if you create a CC emulator, all you'd be able to emulate is that default receiver and that's not much. As soon as you're being asked to load the Spotify application (for example), this would fail. So that's mostly a dead end and this is the reason why I've never tried to do that LMS 8.2 on Odroid-C4 - *SqueezeAMP!*, 5xRadio, 5xBoom, 2xDuet, 1xTouch, 1xSB3.
