Spotify support in RuneAudio 0.3-beta

Surson

Hi Rune Audio team,

I don't know if it is the right place for it but I want to thank you for the very nice job for this new and awaited version. Everything is working perfectly out of the box (NAS, DAC, Hifiberry DAC+ driver, Wifi, Airplay ect.), it's nearly perfect :-)

Now let's enjoy good sound and music :geek:

Seems we need to give kudo's here:

to get this API released by Spotify......

No, Spotify Connect API is not public yet, and currently the SDK is only being distributed to Spotify Partners.
At this point the only way to do that would be doing reverse engineering on the protocol... hard and with uncertain results. If you want to try that way, here you can find some useful informations. Good luck about that...

The Desktop app is compatible with Spotify connect is't it possible to just run the real client to use it as Spotify Connect server?

Definetly not the ideal solution to the problem...

rune doesn't appear to be recognizing my Premium account. Is there a delay from the time of registration?

Spotify tested and noticed that it is very poor sound quality compared to playing flac files. Sometimes scratchy or noise. When playing music from spotify and switching tabs in RuneUI slowdown hear the playback.

Qobuz is one of the most interesting candidates for a future streaming music service integration.

Hi all,

Now that 0.3 with Spotify is out of the door and in the hands of users, can we discuss further "audiophile" ideas? (feel free to move that post in the "Feature Request" if needed.

Is there any update on the "insert your favorite lossless streaming site here" integration ? Qobuz, Tidal, Wimp, whatever... I would understand if my own favorite (qobuz) is not the first to be included, but yeah that would be awsome.
Cheers!

Quobuz seems to me the most interesing option indeed, it's something that we definetly want to integrate in the future. But I can't tell you how it will be placed on the roadmap yet...

Hi,
since some days i have an RPi2 with Hifiberry DAC+ and it works great with webradio.
For information: i have an Netgear WNA1000M WLAN-Stick and its without problems since hours, no interruption or something else.

I chose runeaudio because the spotify option.
My problem: i logged-in in my premium spotify account and when i went in spotify over "playback source" i dont know where to find songs or artists. In "search in DB" i typed in the artist or the song and nothing happens. How can i find songs and add to a playlist or edit in an other way?!?

@[deleted]: are there some new infos about spotify connect for future runeaudio-versions?

Sorry for my english ;-)

Regards

Hi,

since some days i have an RPi 2 with Hifiberry DAC+ and it works very good for webradio.
For info: the WLAN-Adapter Netgear WNA1000M works without problems out of the box.

I chose runeaudio because of the spotify implementation.
My problem: when i am on library>spotify>playback source>spotify i cant search a song over "search in DB". What is to do, to find specific songs or artists in spotify?!? Then i press on the search icon nothing happen, the circle is turning around for a long time without an result.
Premium account is activated and works.

@[deleted]: are there new informations about spotify connect support in an further version?!?

Sorry for my english ;-)

Hi flipdacrip,
the search doesn't work while using Spotify, it's implementation is not complete yet. We'll do that properly in the future versions of RuneAudio. About Spotify Connect, we discussed that in this topic.

Thanks for your fast reply.
And how is it possible, to listen to music in spotify?

Using Spotify in RuneAudio, you'll find all your saved playlists from your Spotify account and you are able to play them.

i dont understand whats wrong on my runeaudio setup, there is nothing unter spotify/favorites...
On spotify in windows i have playlists, the same on android for my spotify account.
Is there something to do, when the playlists arent displayed in runeaudio? Import or something like this?

Please tell me the small trick :-)

flipdacrip wrotePlease tell me the small trick :-)

There is no trick... Once enabled and configured Spotify in Settings you'll be able to switch Playback source to Spotify and see all your saved playlists.

I dont know why, but now its working.
The only think i have done was, that i have added another playlist in spotify on my phone and know all my old playlists are visible.
Perfect ;-)
Runeaudio is very nice on Raspberry Pi 2

I have the same feeling. I suppose Runeaudio is playing Spotify Premium at the highest streaming resolution by default ?

You suppose right. That's still inferior to lossless formats, but you should not hear noise anyway...
