androcif; have you got it working now?
why do i have to be a premium spotify user for this?
i just want to control spotify running on my pc from my phone. as much as its great i dont want to pay for spotify
Spotify only allows Premium users to use API access.
Despotify/Jotify imposes the same restrictions.
The other way to "remote" Spotify is to use one hack or another to send commands to the official client, this however is prone to break and makes playlist handling hard / impossible to implement.
ok so i figured ive just got an android phone and really wanted to see what the official spotify app is like, and this.
should i be running spotify on my machine when using this?? or does it just connect to spotify servers?
also on full spotify client when searching for artists, and then clicking on artist, and it shows all albums etc from that artist. if you play a song it will then just keep going through all the songs from all the albums... can you do this on respot? so it plays all the songs, and then if you want to skip some you can just click next
cheers

There's no need to have the official client running when using ReSpot. All you need is Servify.
Yeah, this is definitely something i've been thinking of implementing. Artist / Album browse should be fairly straightforward.
I'm currently testing a upcoming release of ReSpot which implements 'Shuffle'.
Unfortunately not, yet...
Personally i'd like to have seek & pause implemented, and it's absolutely doable. Just requires a bit more work than a couple of other easy wins.
And I'm not sure how to incorporate 'seek' functionality etc in the UI. (help still wanted with pimping the UI / redesigning it..
)
what happened to this guy?
Not sure.. Got a quite a few offers of help that day. Tried reaching out but no one came back..
And the above mockup while neat and all isnt something i can use unless it's split up in separate parts and as .PNG format... (ie: need icons for the buttons etc etc).
Index of /icon
not that i really like the 'bubbly' look though
if you can make a "solid bar" (akin to the mashup in this thread) that'd be great!
Thanks!
Updated the instructions with:
sudo apt-get install alsa-utils libasound2 libasound2-dev
Since the instructions use 'apt-get' they're mostly just applicable for debian/ubuntu anyway i'd think
