Expected behaviour / actual behaviour

I've tried to see if this was the issue on the latest from the flatpak, dnf package, building from source, and it was. I've tried installing the spotify blob through stuff like this, but to no avail. I tried to hold off on posting this but I couldn't find a solution, or someone having this problem as of 2020 -- not 2015/2012.

Steps to reproduce the problem (only for bugs)

1. install latest clementine
2. attempt to install spotify plugin by any means

Looks like there's an unhandled redirect now.

[jbroadus]

Should be fixed with the lastest.

In the dnf package/flatpak, or will I have to build from source?

Builds should show up here, but I don't know the frequency. I don't see this one yet. https://builds.clementine-player.org/

The build broke https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/clementine-player/Clementine/424/workflows/bb0a5756-9d0a-406c-a336-4a853fcfe175/jobs/4717

Strange. According to qt docs, this should be available in 5.9.

[jbroadus]

Ah, but stretch is at 5.7. I guess we can use the legacy attribute for now.

[jbroadus]

@fmlatghor Looks like builds uploaded.

I tried clementine_1.4.0 not with forced package installation. Just from updated package list. This is Knoppix 9.0 And with same result. "invaild signature: blob" Which version is being expected not to show this error? Thanks

[hatstand]

We do not maintain packages on Knoppix so your guess is as good as mine as to what that is given we haven't even shipped a 1.4.0

[ghost]

I built from source and it installed. This may just be me being dumb, but it doesn't really let me do anything. I don't get a dropdown or any options really to do with spotify besides signing in, bitrate, etc. Is something missing? How exactly would I even play music from spotify? Nothing comes up when I try to search for something.

The package for knoppix must be out of date. Try getting a binary.

I have the same problem and try this:

Create the folder structure for the plugin. mkdir -p -m 775 ~/.config/Clementine/spotifyblob/version16-64bit/

Go to the plugin folder. cd ~/.config/Clementine/spotifyblob/version16-64bit/

Download the plugin. wget http://spotify.clementine-player.org/version16-64bit/blob wget http://spotify.clementine-player.org/version16-64bit/libspotify.so.12.1.51

Give the correct perms to the plugin. chmod 775 blob libspotify.so.12.1.51

Rename the libspotify.so.12.1.51 to libspotify.so.12 mv libspotify.so.12.1.51 libspotify.so.12

This solved my problem.

I think I did what you said wrong, Fuck it, I'm switching to mpd.

[markusk1505]

Thats almost what I did - before I came on the referral link and to sync with architecture. Please read my latest posting.ThanksVon Samsung-Tablet gesendet

I'm not really sure what you mean in this. It doesn't really have anything to do with Clementine being bad (which it's not, it's fantastic) or not wanting to fix bugs (which also not the case, I'm always available to work through things); it's more that I'm switching to dwm/suckless and Clementine doesn't really fit my workflow anymore.

[ghost]

So is this issue fixed? You still have to follow stuff with the (referral link)[https://askubuntu.com/questions/363555/how-do-you-install-spotify-for-clementine-1-2/363901] that probably need to be added to the master. Gl @jbroadus and everyone! I'll leave this open a bit longer so that @markusk1505 can reply. Looks like there's a different issue now? Just has to do with the actual plugin.

[markusk1505]

I just wanted to express that owen wilson with his posting and his referral link [https://askubuntu.com/questions/363555/how-do-you-install-spotify-for-clementine-1-2/363901] brought the solution: to pay attention to system-architecture (32/64bit). Yes, I have the reading 'installed' in the configurationsheet. So I'm now on the same point like you 4 days ago:

 I don't get a dropdown or any options really to do with spotify besides signing in...

I've seen constantly repeated disconnections in the console logging. Is the use of spotify apart spotify-client over a plugin in another software e.g. clementine supported anymore? Same issue, no function on windows! Thanks

[Kwaadpepper]

The solution is https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot, libspotify is dead.

There is also tizonia https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-openmax-il

Doesn't work with Clementine though, until clementine is modified accordingly.

Why is this issue closed?

[ghost]

Because I thought this was fixed, I guess it's not. I don't use Clementine anymore, but I'm mildly interested to see if this gets fixed now. I'll reopen it.

#6147 I don't think the spotify plug-in ever worked since few years now.

Time for a rewrite using a new library. I haven't messed with Clementines source before though, and I frankly don't have enough time on my hands.

[somapullela]

I'm jumping on the proverbial bandwagon as I'm experiencing this issue too on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS.

[MrAureliusR]

Having the same issue. Took a quick look at librespot... it's written in Rust. There is a Go port, and a Java port, but Clementine is written in C++. I'm not sure if it's possible to compile librespot into a linkable C++ library, or if there's some other way to interface C++ to Rust libraries. I've never dealt with that sort of thing before. Tizonia is written in C and C++ so that's probably an easier path.

[thinkpadworship]

Same issue on Manjaro GNOME (latest stable release)

[dathide]

I have the same error on Manjaro 20.1 KDE. I guess I'll use the Spotify Client until this is fixed.

You do realise this isn't an issue, but code that needs to be written? This won't be fixed anytime soon. The spotify plugin that comes with clementine may as well just be thrown away because it's outdated.

You're absolutely right, and the Spotify feature should be removed as it is not working anyway, so no need to advertise a dead function that won't be renewed any time soon.
