Here’s a few things I discovered whist trying to get Spotify Connect working. Hopefully these will be helpful to someone.
Thanks. I'll see how I can incorporate them with the plugin.
- The plugin listens on UDP port 5353 (mDNS) and some random high-numbered TCP port. You’ll need to allow connections through any firewalls from where-ever you’re running an official Spotify client (mentioned above).
I don't like to point people to firewall issues. The past has shown that most users don't know what that's all about and start to do dangerous things like port forwarding stuff to the internet... If somebody happened to have those ports blocked, oh well, he'll have to enter username/password _once_ (and it wouldn't be stored).
- You have to have Spotify Premium for any of this to work. Perhaps that’s obvious to people, but I didn’t see it mentioned.
Excellent point. Thanks again! -- Michael _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
