Possibly internally but it has everything it needs to decode streams as part of libspotify, it just provides raw audio that has to be output via QAudioOutput. It seems the problem with audio not coming out is because I have to do some magic with libresource otherwise it gets muted by default.

Unfortunately it seems that by using libresource directly I probably won't be able to distribute it in the Jolla store right away because it's not one of the authorised APIs.

The latest, sort-of-working version can be downloaded here:

http://mikeasoft.com/~mike/cutespoti...-4.armv7hl.rpm

It works pretty well in the emulator, but seems to be somewhat flaky on the device, and there's currently no way of controlling the volume, so use at your own peril .

I'd be quite interested to see a video of it running on a device if anyone has the time .

Btw. there seems to be no armv7hl(eg hard float) version of libspotify.so? Could that be the issue with crashing?
Yeah, I'm having to use the armv6 hard float beta version unfortunately, not certain what effects this may have on stability.
