Broken?

[namuol]

Can't seem to complete an SSL handshake with Ubuntu Linux.

Traceback (most recent call last):

Could it have something to do with incompatible libs? I can control the desktop player via HTTP through the browser just fine.

Also, the default port seems to have changed to 4371.

Does your code work with the latest Spotify player on your machine?

+1 for this, spotify has killed sslv3, can you update it to work with tls?

[cgbystrom]

Ok, sounds reasonable they did that given SSLv3 is broken.

I really don't use this, its been more of a PoC. But I'm guessing you need to make urllib2 use TLS instead of SSL to make it work again.

Changing kwargs['ssl_version'] = ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv3 to kwargs['ssl_version'] = ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1 works for the oauth token but the next error ist:

urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error [Errno 1] _ssl.c:510: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number>

[sashahilton00]

Yes, I tried that, and also got the same error, no idea how to fix it though ;(

If you don't need exact this script, this fork is working: https://github.com/thiderman/spoticli

I fixed the backend of many of the scripts, you can find a working example here

I detailed the changes here
