MMM - Spotify

ELMAGO

you have multiple devices capable of playing spotify music, and you would like to prevent/limit the active playing display to just certain devices (your phone, but not your teenagers for example).

Indeed, I have several devices. I use my computer at work, for example, and I do not want it to work on my MagicMirror at home.

@ELMAGO got it… I don’t know how to solve the problem, but didn’t understand your need at the beginning.

Isn’t this working?

ELMAGO

I did not use this module in fact, I install it and I come back to you.
Thank you

I just finished the installation.
If I do not put anything in this option, I see what Diffuse Spotify, but if I use this option :

{
module: “MMM-Spotify”,
position: “top_center”,
config: {
style: “default”, // “default” or “mini” available
control: “hidden”, //“default”, “hidden” available
updateInterval: 100,
onStart: null, // disable onStart feature with null
allowDevices: [“Galaxy S10”], //If you want to limit devices to display info, use this.
// allowDevices: [“RASPOTIFY”, “My iPhoneX”, “My Home speaker”],
}
},

I have the Spotify logo but that’s it.

An idea ?

Hello,

a player was running, the Galaxy S10 precisely.

I just want to make a display of the music that passes on some players.

Why need Raspotify?

@ELMAGO
if u has no need to play spotify on rpi, raspotify is not required.
anyway, to get current spotify playback info, one of your spotify player(galaxy s10) should be activated already before MMM-Spotify. The module doesn’t know which player is available until the player is activated.

ok, I understand and I do not want to play spotify on this Rasp, I just want a display of music that passes on some players. So why when I do not restrict devices and change device, the module detects it well, whereas when I restrict it there is no display.
