Spotify Plugin Released! Now with less bugs!

[Fulton]

The latest update to spotify seems to have broken something.
Everything was working fine on Windows 10, as I went back to 8.1 I copied the whole rainmeter folder and got a new update to spotify (added lyrics and the player now closes when pressing the X close button instead of going to the tray). After that the plugin could not read track or artist, only album. Tried with the CLN plugin that scotri posted.
It now looks like what damonmorder posted.

@Fulton, @Damonmorder

This is still not my plugin, but the NowPlaying plugin that is broken.
Just make sure this is what the ini file says (It currently isnt). These measures already exist so be sure to replace them inside the ini.

Code: Select all

[MeasureTitle]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=SpotifyPlugin.dll
Type=TrackName

[MeasureArtist]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=SpotifyPlugin.dll
Type=ArtistName

Hey .raptor!

I want to ask something... When I use the Position type in a string, it returns too many decimals... How can I lessen it? (1 to no decimal place sounds good)

NumOfDecimals doesn't work... xD

Haven't encountered any major issues so far (other than the Private Session limitation).

Would it be possible for the Spotify plugin to retrieve the player state? Aside from the basic Forward/Reverse and Play/Pause bangs, the only part of NowPlaying that is consistently working is the Status function (which can easily be outsourced to the Process plugin if needed).


PRIVATE SESSION ISSUE WORKAROUND: Instead of entering "Private Session" simply disable "Publish my activity on Spotify" and/or "Share my activity on Facebook." This will hide your activity but not effect the plugin.

Hey, Raptor is there anyway why in the song title's that the ' don't work sometimes?

Playing, shuffle and repeat can be measured yes. Documentation on the first page

Works just fine here, both with the new and the old version of spotify. Is it just the ' that disappears or is it the entire string?
