Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

@aenbacka - let me know if you need an alpha/beta tester. I have nothing right now, so anything would be better. :-D

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

I'm ready to test it out whenever you, aenbacka, are ready to publish the client. It's great that someone has time and needed knowledge for doing something like this!

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Spotify requires correct client version information during login. This is already fixed in the despotify source:
http://despotify.svn.sourceforge.net...&diff_format=h

You may download my patched binary, if you wish, at:
http://rapidshare.com/files/37920711...otify.so.0.0.0

The file shall go to /home/opt/maemo/usr/lib

Then everything works again. Otherwise you may want to wait for the official update to libdespotify.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

FIXED IT, i've been waiting for this for 3 months!!! Thanks!!! :-)

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

How do I do to save or "put" the file to /home/opt/maemo/usr/lib? Any help much appreciated.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

you can install SSH

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

I can't copy the file to /home/opt/maemo/usr/lib it says: Permission denied. I have tried to reboot...didn't help. what do I do now?

Please.......I want spotify......

I am using SSH....super :) ......it works .....thanks. But it still stops working from time to time.....an updated spotify client is still needed...

For a step by step SSH guide:

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Now, I got it working agagin. Thanks jlpils and orcocan for pointing me in the right direction.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Hi!

I've replaced libdespotify with the version provided here, but I still get an error message "Client upgrade required", with Yaspot as well as Qtify. I tried rebooting, to ensure the library would be reloaded, but no change.

Could it be related to the new desktop player released today ?

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

http://rapidshare.com/files/38149396...otify.so.0.0.0

The spotify client version number has changed several times during last couple of days. At the moment the libdespotify version found at the link above works with N900 assuming your Spotify account / desktop client is version 0.4.3.380.g88163066.

As usual, copy to:
/home/opt/maemo/usr/lib

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Seems to be outdated once again. Worked for a short time.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

http://rapidshare.com/files/38162381...otify.so.0.0.0

Difficult to keep pace with them...

This is libdespotify.so.0.0.0 for client version 0.4.3.383.g278a6e51

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Just a copy n paste from my other post but thought it might be useful to someone wanting to use Yaspot:

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

yaspot requires a premium account though so the invite wont be sufficient...

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Yeah you need to have Spotify Premium account to be able to use it in a cellular.

A thought came to me: what if you use "Hide user agent" and connect over wifi? Would the Spotify servers know what device you were connecting with? I have a premium account now so I can't try it out.

Another thought related to improving Yaspot: Whenever you open a saved playlist, jump into the "Playlist" view where you have the Pause\Play etc. buttons. Also, a shuffle feature would be nice. :)

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Its related to spotify client, not web browser. So that trick doesnt do anything useful :)

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Okay this need some more explanation. Spotify requires that you have premium to be able to connect with a mobile user client. But despotify based clients does not autenticate as mobile client, BUT here is the big BUT: instead of playing a cat and mouse game between the creators of spotify and despotify they seme to have come to an informal agreement to let users of despotify based clients connect only if they have a premium account.

The reason being that its easy to write a client that saves files of the spotify servers :P among other things

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Thanks. this got spotify back up for me on the n900 and saved my day. :D love this wonderful community!

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

I'm glad you got yours working. After a week mine has just stopped working. Gets stuck at login. Are there error logs stored for this app somewhere? (sorry, noob question) - I haven't found the answer yet.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

My YaSpot stopped working right after I upgraded to the Facebook-addon-riddled version of Spotify on my PC. Coincidence? Any way to fix this?

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

look above at ttseppal's post and link, that worked for me

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Funny how it just stopped working. This method worked for me too. Thanks all round!!

Not I can play with qtify & yaspot to see which I prefer :)

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

but people tent to want to try a service before they pay for it, so these were for them.

Thanks for the new file version.

Edit: mine just stoped working. and qtify saying update requiered, so i think we need new one again...

dam.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

my yaspot just stopped working... :(

"control_thread: got command 4 and argument 0
Segmentation fault"

any idea?

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Damn it. I wonder if we need to somehow hack Spotify (on PC) to not force updates on our accounts or something... :P

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

im not sure if its becuase of an update, the error im getting is different from the previous "client upgrade required"

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

Indeed, the updated libdespotify.so.0.0.0 doesn't fix the problem. yaspot tells me "failed to search". qtify simply segfaults on login (when it tries to grab playlists)...

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

This is so damn boring. I have spotify premium and cant use yaspot on my N900:(:(

We need immediatly a fix for this people.

Where are our pro programers,hackers,insane people who can try to find a way to fix this???

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

yeah. please. i'd love a fix. disapointing it stopped working again so quickly.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

I want it to work, too. If I have time through the week, I'll try to take a look. Can't promise anything, though.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

but I have to admit I did find a backup for music on the road. I'm still really amazed that grooveshark works so smooth in Microb. Flash and all, and less touch friendly than yaspot. but it does the thing while we're waiting for a fix.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

grooveshark is really temperamental on my phone... i want yaspot back :-(

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

I'm using rev. 508 of libdespotify, that I compiled myself, and it works just fine.

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=52917

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

could somebody please give some advice on how to uninstall the old version of the library and install the new one (i guess it needs to be done on the terminal?)

Thanks...!

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

As I wrote in the other thread: There is binary incompatibility between version 488 and 508. It actually already starts at the step from 488 to 489.

To get it to work, the yaspot developer needs to make some changes in his code and compile against the new library.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

oh ok... so it's not something we can fix ourselves... :(

I noticed your post on the new client but i personally am going to wait until it's been tested by a few users (or ideally promoted to extra testing)

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

It looks like the developer will have to do something, yes.

Regarding my own client, I think waiting a bit is a good idea if you really want stability. I'll see what I can do about at least getting it into Extras-devel.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

hey guys,

the last few days I've been unable to use yaspot. It logs in fine, however, when clicking Reload Playlists, it crashes.

Anyone else seeing this?

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

yep, read above :)

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)
 

For some reason I can't get the autobuilder to build the despotify packages any more and unfortunatly I don't have time to look into too why that is. Anyway, I posted new debs on my blog if you want to use the patched packages instead of just coping the shared libraries.
