Spotify service not connected

[vuhrmeister]

I just downloaded and started the script. Unfortunately it doesn't work. With -d I get the following output:

$ ./spotify-notify.py -d
Spotify-notify v0.6
>> No spotify process identifier found.
>> Connecting to spotify.
>> Failed to connect.
>> org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name com.spotify.qt was not provided by any .service files
>> My pid: 7108
>> Looking for other processes named: spotify-notify.
>> Spotify service not connected.

Hi,

the script tries to find spotify using 'which spotify' on the command line. Could you run this command and observe the output?

Also, you can manually edit SPOTIFY_PROCESS_NAME in the python file to the path of your Spotify binary to avoid the autodetection.
