Unable to find libspotify about plugin.audio.spotify

[marcelveldt]

I never had the chance to test it on newer Android hardware. The libspotify implementation is really old and deprecated but I have to use it untill they released the support for playback in the webapi.

There is a little something you might want to test:

Open the file resources\utils.py in notepad++
At line 103 is the definition for your platform: Android ARMv7

There are 3 paths specified there to look, please alter the line so that is only contains one path and test the different paths one by one.

So your first test should look like this:

(Platform.ANDROID, Architecture.ARMV7) : ["resources/dlls/android/arm"],

If it fails to work with all three paths we'll have to find somebody prepared to build the libspotify libraries for the newer android platforms.

Hello,
first thanks for your quick answer.
I have tried to use each lib path successfully, unfortunately it didn't solve my problem, and when looking at the kodi log file after each try, it seems it didn't manage to load the lib.
How the newer android hw configuration changes from the one you used to build android armv7 lib?

In that case you're out of luck and it isn't going to work.
The libspotify is outdated and besides the native android library there is no alternative available.

I think/believe that the current version of the libspotify library for android is compiled for arm5/6 only.

Hi Marcel...

many congrats for your GREAT sw!

Unfortunately I have the same issue reported by lsouchet :-(, the error message "Platform not supported for playback, continuing without playback support.", of course error code 999.

Sorry but I've not understand what kind of edit will be done on the cfg file "resources\utils.py", here is the content (the numbers are the rows #):

103 (Platform.ANDROID, Architecture.ARMV6) : ["resources/dlls/android/arm"],
104 (Platform.ANDROID, Architecture.ARMV7) : ["resources/dlls/android/arm"],
105 (Platform.ANDROID, Architecture.X86) : ["resources/dlls/android/arm"],
106 (Platform.ANDROID, Architecture.X86_64) : ["resources/dlls/android/arm"],
107 (Platform.ANDROID, Architecture.AARCH64) : ["resources/dlls/android/arm"],

Thanks in advance if you can help me, in the meantime I'll take a look in the posts on [(http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=265356)]...

Have a great day!

Best,
