New Volumio Spotify Plugin Open Beta-Testing

Imush · June 9, 2022, 6:42pm

If you get to the proper screen, you should be prompted for a login, which is volumio - password is volumio. Then type the first line in full, press enter. Once the download completes, type the 2nd line and press enter to open the directory. Finally, type the 3rd line and hit enter to initialize the install. Reboot when complete. Dont forget to remove the old plugins via the web interface if you havent already.

You can always copy and paste as typing is error prone

Steve1 · June 9, 2022, 7:17pm

Thanks everyone - I got it to work ok

rPi4-8GB rev 1.4
V3.251
NAD D3045
Superstar
No volume control used, as I use my amplifier for it. So output set to 100%

Solved (10 Jun 2022)

Seems a lot of labels in Genre are in Russian? instead of English. Not my native tongue difficult to translate

Bug:

When a Spotify playlist is loaded, it will only play 1 song. For example Today’s Top Hits. (And Yes repeat is off) .
If you manually select the next song you need to click it twice.
If a song has ended and after 5 minutes you select the next song, the Manifest UI is not updated

is from Peppy_meter which I turned off as you can see in the last x lines)

What is perfect:

Sound is perfect
PeppyMeter is still working.
Skipping back and forward causes no issues with progress bar etc. (in comparison with Qobuz)

RPi 2b, Wired Ethernet
Free Volumio, v3.251
HiFiBerry Digi2-Pro
Spotify Premium
Won’t continue past a couple songs added to queue.

ETA: It seems to be a lot better with a smaller queue.

This video guide will help for those of non-technical people. Just an installation guide not testing or trouble shooting.

RPi 0 via wifi
Free Volumio, v3.251
HiFiBerry Dac
Spotify Premium

There is a display issue when using Spotify Connect. The ‘Playback’ screen does not update correctly. Total Track Time (4:19 in image below) is updated for each track, the current Track Time (4:05) is incorrect (refresh page will reset the timer back to 0.00).
The Album name and thumbnail does not refresh.

Love your work.

EDIT. Total Track Time is not correct.

ioeo · June 10, 2022, 4:52am

hi my spotify account is a facebook login, i can’t log in on volumio

Piotr_Bagniewski · June 10, 2022, 5:12am

When I connect from a Pixels via Spotify Connect, the “Now Playing” is not showing what’s playing, it shows the last thing that was playing before connecting. Audio is perfect.

Edit: Playing on volumio direct works fine, and phone shows that it’s connected to volumio in the spotify app, but clicking next song on the phone stops playback.

Piotr_Bagniewski · June 10, 2022, 5:21am

You can, go to spotify in a browser, click forgot password and use your facebook email, you will get a reset link to setup a new password. I just did the same thing myself

Piotr_Bagniewski · June 10, 2022, 5:25am

I confirm all the above, playing stops after each song and to play next you need to click > twice.

giorgosperi · June 10, 2022, 6:01am

on my rpi4 latest volumio version.
not having any double tap issue.
also the status of the track not updating only when i m switching from the embedded spotify to spotify connect.
if lets say i play an other plug in and after use spotify connect works fine…

michel8166 · June 10, 2022, 7:21am

first of all thanks for the hard work
installed the spotify beta and everything works fine and haven’t encountered any crazy things yet.

raspberry pi 4b 2gb.
system version: 3.251
dac: khadas tone 1, wired
account: free.
as an extra I use an infrared module and rotary encoder and this also works fine.

MBB · June 10, 2022, 7:22am

Rpi 3B+
volumio 3.251
Rpi wired to ethernet, connected via USB to external DAC (Hegel H160 integrated amp)
Free account, registered

Just wanted to let you know that it all seems to work fine! Unlike mentioned above, when playing an album, the player goes smoothly to the next song.
Guys @ Volumio and everyone that helped… Thank you! I’m really grateful for this to work again!

Jaro_Simek · June 10, 2022, 8:14am

forgot to note that Bitrate information is missing. All others works as expected. Config information in my previous post

TheCharbits · June 10, 2022, 8:50am

Raspberry pi 3b+ 1gb.
System version: 3.251
DAC: WiFi to Pi + digiOne transport to Rotel A11 (Dual Wolfson DACs) via RCA
Account: Spotify Premium

Everything appears to be working correct in terms of sounds, accessibility, control, i.e., tracks play & shuffle, repeat, etc. as previously.

Confirm bitrate information not showing. But apart from that seems to be good to use.

Wheaten · June 10, 2022, 10:07am

Found one, which happens sometimes.

open a playlist, press the top play,

manual select another song from the list. Spotify doesn’t respond anymore. Seems only happening when Spotify doesn’t start with the 1st track but with the 2nd in the list. (see generated errors below)

Thanks for all time and effort you have put into this.

Overall working and sounding great.

Running volumio 3.251 (free) on rpi3 + Iqaudio DAC + with wireless connection. Spotify Family Account

Test results

Create playlist from Spotify. Play a few songs. Pause. Add a few additional songs to the play list from my NAS rather than spotify. Move the NAS song up the playlist to be the next song to play. Start playing the spotify track again.

At end of the song, it doesn’t proceed to the next (non spotify song on the list)

NAS is rpi2 running OpenMediaVault with mp3 file on ext4 filesystem.

Log file is here

http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/rxWUld7.html

Volume of a song in spotify is much lower, compared to the same track played from my NAS. Enough of a difference that if your playlist has a mixture of both then the volume is uncomfortably higher when you get to a track from your NAS.

http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/7Xc0wDd.html

Played a track from my NAS. When the track finished it replayed, rather than moving onto the next track in the playlist which was a spotify track

http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/kTFxOhY.html

Josh2000 · June 10, 2022, 11:15am

Thank you for the great (and fast) work.

I also can confirm the queue issue.
The sound quality is perfect.

If i play track 9 music is stopped after the track has finished. Clicking next continues with track 4 and not with track 10 as expected.

Running volumio 3.251 (free) on rpi3 + Iqaudio DAC + with wireless connection. Spotify Family Account

Verified as per other testers, that the playlist stops at track 10. Here is the log file

http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/qXULAsP.html

Edit

It’s not track 10. It’s random. Cleared the queue completely and created a new queue with 5 tracks. It stopped after each track and I had to manually select the next one.

Edit 2

Definite not random - not even random numbers are random. The issue occurs after you manually select a track from the playlist, it doesn’t automatically move to the next track from thereon.

http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/OlFywi7.html

Also got interesting behaviour where after it played the last track in the queue, the web interface looked like it replaying the last song (had a countdown) but wasn’t actually playing the track again. (You might struggle to find it in the log as I didn’t get a refreshed copy of the after it happened - I will post a new log if it happens again.)
