OS

Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) - Lite 32Bit

Pi model

What happened?

Installing Phoniebox works fine. When the box boots up, I can hear the boot-sound from the speakers fine also.
But when I play Spotify content via the WebUI or Iris, nothing plays and the following is written to the mopidy log:

`ERROR [MainThread] mopidy.audio.gst GStreamer error: Could not get/set settings from/on resource.

I ma having the same issue - not sure if it's related to this?

s-martin · 2024-09-18T18:49:08Z

Yes, the problem is probably that Spotify requires now oauth authentication.

This has to be fixed in mopidy-spotify, see also mopidy/mopidy-spotify#394

s-martin · 2024-10-07T14:44:35Z

All

PR #2435 updates mopidy-spotify, which should fix this issue.

Everyone is invited to test this fix.

seschu · 2024-10-13T18:53:44Z

Hi there I have the same problem I think. i am confused a little bit: How do I get the credentials.json mentioned in the fix?

s-martin · 2024-10-13T18:55:36Z

@seschu

The PR #2435 is supposed to fix this, please check it out

Probably not completely fixed

mopidy/mopidy-spotify#394 (comment)

seschu · 2024-10-13T19:14:15Z

I think we have to get the credentials.json file from librespot mopidy/mopidy-spotify#394

seschu · 2024-10-13T19:58:37Z

I made it work by doing the following:

I had to generate a new request token directly at Spotify
https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-playback-sdk/tutorials/getting-started
I updated the mopidy client id and secret (I actually don't know if this is necessary) under /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf
The new request token from step 1 is used for creating a file called credentials.json. I placed this file with sudo cp in this location /var/lib/mopidy/spotify/credentials-cache/credentials.json
The file has this content
{"username":"weirdusername",
"auth_type":1,"auth_data":"generatedaccesstoken"}
generatedaccesstoken is the token received from the spotify website in step 1.
the username is a weird random combination of letters that I see when I check my spotify profile page (on desktop in browser or in a desktop app) and press edit profile.
I then updated the gstreamerplugin with this alpha release https://github.com/kingosticks/gst-plugins-rs-build/releases/tag/gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0-alpha.1-1
Here I only downlaoded this file https://github.com/kingosticks/gst-plugins-rs-build/releases/download/gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0-alpha.1-1/gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0.alpha.1-1_armhf.deb
and I installed it doing
sudo apt remove gst-plugin-spotify
sudo dpkg -i gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0.alpha.1-1_armhf.deb

I am not sure whether all steps were necessary. It works currently.

There seems to be some progress in the mentioned thread, any chance to get a fix for this here also?

I made it work by doing the following:

1. I had to generate a new request token directly at Spotify
   https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-playback-sdk/tutorials/getting-started

2. I updated the mopidy client id and secret (I actually don't know if this is necessary) under /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf

3. The new request token from step 1 is used for creating a file called credentials.json. I placed this file with sudo cp in this location /var/lib/mopidy/spotify/credentials-cache/credentials.json
   The file has this content
   {"username":"weirdusername",
   "auth_type":1,"auth_data":"generatedaccesstoken"}
   generatedaccesstoken is the token received from the spotify website in step 1.
   the username is a weird random combination of letters that I see when I check my spotify profile page (on desktop in browser or in a desktop app) and press edit profile.

4. I then updated the gstreamerplugin with this alpha release https://github.com/kingosticks/gst-plugins-rs-build/releases/tag/gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0-alpha.1-1
   Here I only downlaoded this file https://github.com/kingosticks/gst-plugins-rs-build/releases/download/gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0-alpha.1-1/gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0.alpha.1-1_armhf.deb
   and I installed it doing
   sudo apt remove gst-plugin-spotify
   sudo dpkg -i gst-plugin-spotify_0.14.0.alpha.1-1_armhf.deb

I am not sure whether all steps were necessary. It works currently.

Did the same and it works for me as well.

In addition to the above, I also had to install the 5.0.0a3 version of the mopidy-spotify plugin which I didn't have yet. This enables the new authentication method and now you can remove the username/password from mopidy.conf.

sudo python3 -m pip install Mopidy-Spotify==5.0.0a3

Btw, I found it useful to check the logs from mopidy to get quick feedback on whether authentication works or not and why

journalctl -u mopidy -b --grep spotify.web
