Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Spotify: authentication with Spotty failure

2023-01-02 Thread Michael Herger

1. entering Client ID from developer.spotify.com


Yes! But not as the username, but in the appropriate field at the bottom 
of the settings page.



2. entering Spotify password assigned to my e-mail or client secret
assigned to Client ID? (tried both)


Authentication requires your Spotify username and password, NOT the 
client ID/secret.


But you should also be able to just fire up a Spotify client on your 
phone to authenticate.



3. should "Enable Spotify Connect endpoint for this player " setting be
on or off?


I think you wouldn't even see this unless you were signed in already? It 
doesn't matter for authentication.



4. "Use fallback access point: - where is this setting?


Again: you'll probably only see this once you're signed in. It's towards 
the bottom of the Spotty settings page.


Feel free to send me a screenshot of your Spotty settings page:

2023-01-01 Thread Michael Herger

just checked and my QNAP is not arm v7 but armv5tel.


I'm sorry, I've pretty much given up on armv5. But then:


[23-01-01 22:50:49.3499] Plugins::Spotty::Settings::Auth::handler (83)
Authorization failed: spotty v0.12.2


That kind of tells me it's not failing to run the helper, but some of 
the the params. Please enable logging for plugin.spotty, try auth once 
again, then send me your server.log.zip 
(https://www.dropbox.com/request/T3RctyzGgNg0oFDubq6a).


Are you using your own client ID?
Did you enable "Use fallback access point"?
Did you try signing in using a Spotify app, or giving your credentials?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2022-12-30 Thread Michael Herger

I have an album in Spotty that I simply cannot get removed.  It is
Phoebe Bridger's "Punisher".  Its tracks are duplicated, I'm trying to
remove it, so I can re-add it with just one copy of the tracks.


Thanks for your log file. I'm wondering whether this is a temporary 
issue. We've seen such things before: items would be replaced/removed, 
but they'd stay around for a bit, though non-functional.


Now what makes your case interesting is that the non-functional version 
of the album seems to be perfectly fine here in Switzerland: 
https://open.spotify.com/album/2xECuqnvvmVktV7UO8Dd3s.


But the data in the log is inconsistent. It should either have an 
"is_playable" flag, or an "available_markets" markets list of countries. 
But the former does not exist, and the latter is empty. Spotty would 
only filter by "available_markets" if it was not empty, as some items 
would _always_ come with an empty list...


So please try to unfavorite the above album and/or give it some time. 
This might be a data issue on Spotify's end. It wouldn't be the first time.

Don't mess with the "InstalledPlugins" folder, as it's managed by LMS. 
There should be another folder called just "Plugins" where you should 
install plugins manually. Check Settings/Information - there you'll find 
the various paths at the bottom.



But no way. Actually the plugin remain version 1.82.2

I have an album in Spotty that I simply cannot get removed.  It is
Phoebe Bridger's "Punisher".  Its tracks are duplicated, I'm trying to
remove it, so I can re-add it with just one copy of the tracks.


Would the album show up if you drilled down the Spotty menu to Albums?

You could try to shut down LMS, move spotty.db out of the cache folder, 
then try again. Don't delete it, as you'd want to move it back in place 
if that didn't fix it.


If it did show up in aformentioned Albums menu, navigate to the level 
before that, enable debug logging for plugin.spotty, drill down to the 
Albums level. Then disable logging again and send me a copy of the 
server.log.zip file.



How does one forcibly (and reliably) remove an online album if no
reference exists in Spotify?  This is driving me nuts, and it seems to
happen fairly frequently enough that I'm wondering if there's a way to
add an option to to tell LMS - DELETE this album from your database!


I fear the problem lies in Spotify, that the album would still be listed 
in your favorites, but with some flag to have it hidden. And I might be 
missing that flag somehow.

Yes, this one is not due to new version but it’s Sonos that claims to be
compatible with ogg/vorbis but every time I’ve thrown such format to
these, they refused to play. So go the the plugin’s settings but select
the sonos speakers and in the codec line type « -ogg » so that ogg is
removed from the supported codecs.


Or you disable SPT -> OGG streaming in Settings/Advanced/File Formats.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: CastBridge = integrate Chromecast players with LMS (squeeze2cast)

2022-12-28 Thread Michael Herger

Just checked at least for RP: the protocol handler of RP (the part of
the plugin that tells LMS how to stream data for a given source and
collect metadata) tells LMS that interactive streams cannot be paused,
so LMS stops them. I vaguely remember a simialr thing for Qobuz where
(for no good reasons AFAIR) it refuses to pause.


I think for Qobuz there was a limitation with seeking within https 
streams or something, wasn't there? Something you improved at some point?


RP is different: The interactive stream is a series of blocks of tracks. 
Handling these blocks is a bit complicated as a block can have many 
tracks. Thus the file length has little to do with the individual track 
length. And RP (at least at the time I implemented it) didn't support 
seeking on their end. Therefore I didn't invest time into making it work.

Nothing shown in the terminal? What with "spotty.exe -v"?


Not sure if I replied to this, but just crashes.


I'm pretty sure there's a problem with some "security" package. A 
firewall blocking outgoing traffic, or the AV considering the helper's 
activity dangerous or whatever.


As you can run it with just "-x" all the dependencies seem to be 
available. Otherwise it wouldn't run at all. But that parameter would 
only report some capabilities and version numbers etc. It wouldn't do 
any networking connections. Other modes would try to connect to 
Spotify's servers - which for whatever reason and however crashes the 
helper.


So please double check the AV you have, your firewall etc. to make sure 
you allow spotty.exe unlimited _outgoing_ communication.

They're not alone with this approach. I see the same with other 
streaming services. They mostly differ in the level of information they 
want to have. Qobuz unfortunately is one of the most complicated, as 
they also want to know about seeking (how often, how much), total 
listening time per track (incl. repetition due to seeking, missed parts 
due to seeking etc.).


Even Spotify relies on the player to report back, and they don't provide 
any information about it, as they assume you're using their closed 
source libraries only.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2022-11-30 Thread Michael Herger

19 months have past  with lots of  LMS development in that time. Is it
still the case that Spotty listening doesn't get reported back to
Spotify ?


This is not a LMS or Spotty issue, but still in the underlying 
librespot. There's no documented API to report playback. It must be 
reverse engineered - and likely isn't top of the priority list...

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Qobuz.com streaming plugin

2022-11-30 Thread Michael Herger

I came to the conclusion that the reason is the lack of free time for
the additional work on the plugin, and had hopes that at some point in
time it might get updated with more goodies.


I think it's both: limited spare time, and the lack of documentation. 
More time could compensate for the missing docs. Or docs could save time 
in development... But lack of both makes things hard to achieve.

Having retested it, indeed it would be.  I'd got myself confused by it
not handling the situation when a Bandcamp URL is already on the

If I read the librespot code correctly, then there's nothing you did

usually means an unexpected error on their end.


Did you compile the spotty helper yourself? I thought I had disabled the

Please check this new recording and let me know if it is now more
evident: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e0w8lkrnyr8t7gk/IMG_7203.MOV?dl=0


What I see is that it's not always totally broken and out of sync. 
Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it doesn't. Unfortunately Spotty in 
Connect mode can be a bit erratic. That's a known issue. In your case 
it's not "always one behind" or something. It's erratic. I think the 
more interaction there is (jumping around, searching etc.), the more 
you'd see such issues. If you just let it play it might be ok for quite 
some time.


If you want me to better understand what's going on you'll have to 
create a meaningful log file which you can comment on: please enable 
logging for plugin.spotty=INFO (not DEBUG), play around as you just did, 
then look at the timestamps in server.log and try to align them with 
what you did when.


Feel free to provide the resulting server.log.zip for further analysis.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Strange problem with Spotty and Spotify

2022-11-13 Thread Michael Herger

@mherger Would it be possible to create a connect mode where solely
Spotify is in command? Web-Interface and hardware player button commands
would just be ignored?


I don't think so. At the very least play/stop must be handled on both 
ends, or I would imagine more odd behaviour (like playback starting 
again after powering off a SB). A Pi/ESP32 based solution could do it, 
implementing the Spotify Connect endpoint independently (SqueezeAMP does 
it already). In that case LMS would be totally independent of Spotify 
playback.

That's yet another level... So basically you confirm it does work in its

Group Player plugin (or similar, don't remember the name), or LMS' sync 
interface?


As for the name: would you be using some special characters?

And as always: anything in server.log? Your description has changed so 
many times now that I'm sure the log would look different, too.



Another problem I have, spotify playlists always stops after 1 or 2
songs (I have to disconnect and reconnect to lms players to have
play/sound again)

called from spotty helper for b8:27:eb:ab:be:e4: volume


This tells me that authentication has succeeded. Isn't an account listed 
in Settings/Advanced/Spotty? Would playback using the Spotty menus work?

This OTOH looks as if it couldn't announce itself on the Spotify 
backend. Did you create your own Spotify Client ID?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Player compatible Spotty

Basically: any application which mimics a Squeezebox should be 
compatible with Spotty.


iPeng has a player in-app purchase which IMHO should work, too.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Spotify: authentication with Spotty failure

2022-11-02 Thread Michael Herger

plugin.spotty=INFO might already give you a lot more information,
without flooding the log file.

Could you let me know how I should restart LMS with that option enabled?
do I need to run any CLI command or is that something one does from the
web interface on LMS?


You can go to Settings/Advanced/Logging to enable those logging options 
on the fly.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2022-11-02 Thread Michael Herger

What I cannot get to work so well is Spotify Connect - I get stuck on
particular tracks (clicking next just plays the same track again); the
track playing is different to the one showing as playing; and tracks
that never end.
Is there a solution that has worked for these problems? The reality, I
suppose, is that I don't really need to use Spotify Connect and could
just use Spotty, but we always want more!


Unfortunately I'm aware of the fact that Connect is rather, ahm... 
sensitive. I always hoped I'd find the key to stability at some point. 
But I'm not there yet.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Spotify: authentication with Spotty failure

2022-11-01 Thread Michael Herger

I set up LMS a few weeks back and I have not managed to either get
Spotify Connect up and running, despite having the option "Enable
Spotify Connect endpoint for this player" enabled. Additionally, when I
try to log into Spotify from LMS directly, I see the error message that
others have shared here "Authorisation failed". I'm running LMS on


By "log in directly" you mean giving credentials? Did you try the way 
where you use a Spotify client to authorize a Spotty installation?



PiCorePlayer, which means that I'm not running any sort of Docker
environment, with complex networking. I tried forwarding port TCP 4070
to no avail either.


"I tried forwarding port xyz" makes me fear you did something you don't 
know. No forwarding whatsoever is required. All you have to do is make 
sure there's nothing blocking _outgoing_ traffic - which usually is the 
case in home installations.


Please check your Spotify application's configuration. Some versions 
allow you to not show local devices. This would fail the above.



I'm going to see if I can increase the log verbosity (I would swear I
saw a post on this) but if you could help me figure out why Spotify
Connect is not working to start with, I would be very very thankful.


plugin.spotty=INFO might already give you a lot more information, 
without flooding the log file.
