MMM-Spotify

dcimag

Hi. I was wondering if someone could tell me what I need to edit in the MMM-Spotify module to make Spotify fully function and what I have to do to have it appear on my screen. I have all the details of the MMM-Spotify folder listed under my Music folder on my raspberry pi 4. I dont need to type out the coding. Again just asking what I need to edit of the coding. Already have all the code. Other than all the coding that is in the MMM-Spotify.js document. What do I need to puth for AUTH_DOMAIN: AUTH_PATH: AUTH PORT: SCOPE: and TOKEN.

I really don’t understand, what do you want to do with this modules…
MMM-Spotify works

I have the module MMM-Spotify. I just want to know what parts of the module do I have to edit to make the module work properly and what I need to edit to have it appear on the screen.

@dcimag : haaa ok… And do you ask to the developer why he take some time for doing a module and coding an none working module?

Here is what I did with this. I made it in full screen so that I have a dedicated display that shows what I’m playing on Spotify. Changed up the styling and also added a cleaner ‘not playing anything screen’. Pics attached. Was a blast to edit and looks and works great! Picture here.

Just installed this module, really great.
About multiple accounts: I have Spotify family account (=6 Accounts) and multiple devices. I have run through the auth process, went fine, works.
What I’d like: To show anything that is playing on any account or device.
What I get: Just a single account which is set in “accountDefault: 0”.
When I change it to 1, 2,3 - it works with the respective accounts.
When I delete it, it’s back to default account 0.

Do I have to call the module multiple times or is there a way to do this, @Bugsounet?

@requiemmg I actually have the exact same problem/challenge. I tried to include the module multiple time, but that did not work. Were you able to solve the problem to display multiple accounts in a family account?

Thx

the module will only show what is playing on one device. this is a Spotify limitation

@Bugsounet Good I checked the older messages in this thread to better understand the complexity with multiple accounts. I had no idea it would impact the CPU that much. Thanks for pointing out.
Being able to change it verbally is currently not an option as I don’t plan to implement vocal for my mirror. But can’t think of an alternative as of now.

BTW: Thanks a lot for your hard work on this module!

if Soptify logo not hidden after start, it’s means :
token missing or token error

you should have in console something like that :
[SPOTIFY:ERROR] USERNAME: [your username]
[SPOTIFY:ERROR] Token Error ! ./[token name].json

@Bugsounet I have this same error. I got the webpage after running node first_auth.js but it said invalid and then I had to CRTL-Z to stop it. Now when I run node first_auth.js I get errors. Do I need to uninstall MMM-Spotify and start from scratch?

Also, I already am using MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify and that is working fine. Can I just reuse my existing Client ID and Client Secret? I’m worried that using both modules is causing the issue. I could be wrong though.

Thanks!
