[SlimDevices: Plugins] Where's the Triode Plugin for Spotify, Please?

2011-02-02 Thread Wilbur111
I have a Squeezebox 3 and I'd like to get Music On Demand with a high quality bitrate. I've read that Spotify is the place to go for this. And I've read that I need a plugin to do this. Where would I get the plugin, please? Alongside simple instructions to use it. Also, would my pc need to be

Hi there, First of all you need a Spotify premium account, crrently £10 a month UK prices. When you have that, fire up squeezeplayer on the computer, click home/server settings, and from the "basic settings" drop down menu select plugins. Scroll down to the 3rd party recommended plugins until you

What an excellently thorough answer. Thanks. However, I've encountered a difficulty... I signed up for the 7 day free trial at Spotify. Excellent. I installed the app in my Squeezebox Server Version 7.5.3 . And I logged into the account via the Squeezebox Server app. And I then searched for a

Yup. It's the Premium account I signed up for. But I signed up for the 7 day free trial of the Premium Account. Same thing, no? Otherwise there would be no point. (By the way, I am in the UK.) -- Wilbur111 Wilbur111'

You actually need to pay for Premium. The free trial is not Premium. -- JackOfAll JackOfAll's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3069 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=8

Are you sure? I signed up for premium, gave my bank card details and was told I wouldn't be charged for seven days. Are you saying that this means I can't use the service for seven days? That's more like a cooling off period than it is a free trial! Is there any way I can get to actually try i

Erm, actually I'm not sure. Things have changed. The trial never used to be "premium". -- JackOfAll JackOfAll's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3069 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/

Ok. I/we've done it. Spotify said "You have an active Spotify Premium subscription" so that gave me hope. JackofAll said "If you're using the 3rd party (Triode) plugin then I suggest you enable debug logging for the helper app (spotifyd) and post to the Announce thread, where the plugin is supp

Ah, if you're using a SB3 then you have to install and use the Triode plugin to get it working with that, not the "official" plugin! Anyway, glad you got it working. :) -- JackOfAll JackOfAll's Profile: http://forums.slimd

Yes, I thought there might be troubles with the fact that it's a Squeezebox 3. I did actually mention it in my initial post but I guess it was overlooked. Oh well. One thing now, then, is that there isn't a menu item for Spotify on the SB3 - meaning that I actually do have to turn on my compute

With the SB3, the computer needs to be switched on so it's using the SBS and Triodes daemon which "proxies" and transcodes the stream for the device. (You cannot stream directly to the device, like with the newer Touch. The firmware will never support it.) You should find a "Spotify" menu item und
