Cannot view or play content of playlists

[LSeelig]

Describe the bug When I open any playlist from either the sidebar or from the playlist menu, no songs load.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Click on desired playlist on sidebar OR click on 'Playlists' on sidebar and then click on desired playlist
2. Wait
3. See error

Expected behavior The contents of the playlist load, and there is an option to play it. If there is loading time required to fetch the playlist contents, there is some indication (i.e. spinning loop)

Screenshots

General information:

• Distribution: Fedora 39 Workstation
• Installation method [e. g. built from source, installed from Flathub...]: Flathub
• Version [e.g. 0.1.0]: 0.4.0
• Device used [e. g. desktop, phone...]: Laptop

Additional context I am logged in with premium. Albums in my library work fine. Search works fine, but it only shows albums and artists (I don't know if this is expect behavior). I doubt this is a display error, but if it is, I am using wayland.

I have the same issue. Like the OP, either clicking on playlists from the sidebar or the library opens the playlist however no contents are visible. Clicking "Play" on the playlist results in no playback.

• Distribution: Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS
• Installation method: Flatpak (from Flathub)
• Version: 0.4.0
• Device: Desktop.

Logged into Spotify Premium. Playing playlists from the official Spotify App works just fine. I can also play albums though Spot as well. The problem seems to revolve around playlists.

Ran into this myself as well.

spot version 4.0 latest/edge popey -> same issue

Tried to compile https://github.com/Diegovsky/spot -> doesn't work on ubuntu jammy (latest)

Error says the following doesn't exist:

• Adw.EntryRow
• Adw.EntryPassword
• glib2.0 is not found (despite being installed)

and many other issues (no time for that)

Would be nice if you could add your deployment docker file or/and the other requirements, further I love linking to: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1404616/how-to-build-spot-native-spotify-client-on-ubuntu-22-04

It helped a bit, as the instructions in the repo are kinda messy :-)

However, ninja install -C target fails:

Despite

The versions seem right according to docs

1. https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/libadwaita/doc/main/class.PasswordEntryRow.html
2. https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/libadwaita/doc/main/class.EntryRow.html

Cargo.toml says v1_2, tried to play around with that as well, didn't work

This is fixed on master. I'll be releasing a new version in flathub soon. Stay tuned, everyone!

Thanks!

Is it just me, or has this started working again. @Diegovsky - did you release the fix on FlatHub, or did Spotify just change the API to allow this access once again?

[Diegovsky]

Hey there, sorry for the wait - no, I haven't released anything yet.

I have tried to ask for ownership of the flatpak repo but couldn't do that, however, I plan on trying again (might do it rn). I'm currently a bit busy with college, so it will take time until I can do a new release.
