This project is really cool!
It's kinda unfortunate that there is still no real replacement for libspotify on Windows, and that you have to have the desktop application installed and running.
- master-lincoln 4y agoThat's why I would rather call this tool a Spotify desktop remote control than a player...
- arlcode 4y agoI am using the Spotify integration for home assistant, an IKEA ZigBee remote and a Chromecast for the actual playback. Works like a charm
- MrGilbert 4y agoYes, I agree. Doesn’t make it less cool, though. I would love to see a port of librespot for Windows, but my guess is that Spotify tolerates librespot, because it’s only available for *nix.
- nsteel 4y agoLibrespot should work under Windows. There's multiple audio backends available, some are platform specific. > We recently switched to using Rodio for audio playback by default, hence for macOS and Windows, you should just be able to clone and build librespot (with the command below). The "recently" above was ~4 years ago! https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot#readme https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot#readme
