At first you need sign up to Spotify Premium account and get an application key. If you have regular Spotify account, please upgrade it to Premium.
Multi Room Audio Player uses libspotify SDK. To use the Libspotify SDK you will need to get an application key. Only Premium Spotify users will be able to log in and play music with this library. Please go to Spotify Developer account and create an application key. Please use this link
Click on the Binary link and download your key as a binary file (by default: spotify_appkey.key) Note: to get the application key you will need to have a Spotify Premium account. Run Multi Room Audio Player and go to Tools-Settings, open Spotify tab.
Please enter your Spotify username, password and path to saved application key. If you want login to Spotify automatically on startup, please enable corresponding check box. Press OK to save settings. Your password will be encrypted and stored locally only. Now you can create Spotify player.
On the Spotify player press Login button and you will see all your saved playlists in the list box below. Please choose the desired playlist using the mouse. You can select any playlist’s track from the right list box by double click. And of course, use the Search text box to find any song or band on Spotify music service.
The libspotify key generation and retrieval service has been deprecated, along with libspotify. What can i do to play spotify?
You are right. Unfortunately, it deprecated and I know no ways to get Spotify audio stream in any application 🙁 But it works, and you can try to ask someone for the key. I hope Spotify will give developer access again. Thank you.
If a customer has a Spotify account, can you use one account to play 5 playlists and go to 5 rooms? or need to apply 5 Spotify accounts?
No, you can create only one Spotify player, but you can assign as many rooms as you want to this player. Please note that the old Spotify API is now deprecated. It may still function for users who have obtained API keys, but it is no longer recommended for use. We are looking for new possibilities to support Spotify.
