Spotify2 v1.2.18.1

Spotify2 v1.2.18.1 is a maintenance release with improved Client ID handling and platform-specific compatibility fixes.

Changes

  • Adds a dedicated action for changing the Spotify Web API Client ID in the add-on settings.
  • Validates and permanently saves only a complete 32-character Client ID.
  • Applies a newly saved Client ID automatically within a few seconds; restarting Kodi is not required for this setting change.
  • Clears the previous Web API token after a Client ID change while preserving the existing Device Connect credentials.
  • Reduces unnecessary Android error logging when the expected executable fallback is used.
  • Improves Windows SimpleCache recovery by closing the SQLite connection before recreating the cache.
  • Replaces deprecated music metadata calls with Kodi 21/22 InfoTagMusic setters.
  • Keeps authentication credentials, playback and resume behavior, provider metadata, and the bundled Spotty binaries unchanged.

Spotify Web API Client ID

A Spotify Premium account is required to use Spotify2.

Spotify2 includes a default Spotify Web API Client ID. Optionally, you can configure your own Client ID in the add-on settings. Using your own Client ID can reduce HTTP 429 responses caused by shared Web API rate limits, but it cannot prevent all rate limiting.

Create an application in the Spotify Developer Dashboard. If the dashboard requests a Redirect URI, you can use:

http://127.0.0.1:8888/callback

Spotify2 uses Device Connect for authentication and does not open or depend on this callback URI.

Installation note

After installing or updating Spotify2, restarting Kodi once is recommended.
