[MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify] – Display the currently on Spotify playing song

This module is great!

Our MM sits on our office desk as a family info system. We listen to Spotify playlists so this module is great for showing which track is playing - in fact, one family member outright complained after I rebuilt the MM and forgot to include this module again!

I see that this module makes DNS requests every second - I’m watching the tail of my pi-hole log. Is there any way to reduce the number of network requests, particularly when the module is idle?

Thanks :)

Is there anyway to change the colour of the Spotify logo that sits in the background? I looked in CSS and tried changing the image to a colour one but still no joy. Thanks

@headbug librespot or raspotify are programs u can install on the pi, outside mm to be able to PLAY Spotify on this device.

the MMM-Spotify module from bugsounet does this for you.

Installed and worked after I rebooted and came back to it the next day. :man_shrugging:

Works quite well aside from after a handful of songs it sort of stalls/freezes on an arbitrary song and if i let it sit for a while or play something outside my network it doesn’t load anything unless I force a reboot of the MM interface(NOT the whole pi).

Anyone else experience the same above and have a fix? (looked through posts and did not see anything)

I really like it. Would really love to be able to hide all other info beside album art, like progress bar, artist, user, artist, album etc. So I could tune it to be just as I want.

Thanks!

@fillilutten Addition! I would also be able to hide the Spotify logo when just in idle.

Hello,

Im trying to install the module, but after applying my client id, secret id + add the callback uri, I clicked on « authorise my app » , but I still have « wait for step 2 to complete ». I cant get my access token and refresh token.
Did someone has the same issue ?

It’s great, which is very helpful for a Spotify enthusiast like me
