This software bridges OBS and Spotify using Discord tokens.

I'm not a professional of Discord ToS and Spotify ToS, and it may lead to your account being banned. This software is provided without any warranty and it is as-is.

Why does this require a Discord token?

Spotify tokens rotate and expire in a very short time.

But Discord tokens are valid for a long time, and we can use them to get valid Spotify tokens.

How to

Step 0. Connect Discord account to the Spotify account

This software depends on Discord / Spotify account linking. You must link those accounts before using this software.

Reference: Discord Spotify Connection – Discord

Step 1. Get Discord's user token by Discord Client

1. Login to the web client.
2. Paste this code to the Browser Console. javascript - Any way to get my discord token from Browser Dev Console? - Stack Overflow

   (webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[''],{},e=>{m=[];for(let c in e.c)m.push(e.c[c])}]),m).find(m=>m?.exports?.default?.getToken!==void 0).exports.default.getToken()

3. A token like this is displayed. "ush9Zohzie6ahmohsoo6meCh.IThah7.jeephaijiachu8kuWoh0aephe5e"

Step 2. Create OBS sources

1. Create a obs-spotify.text as TextSource.
2. Create a obs-spotify.albumart as BrowserSource.
   1. Set size to square (likes 256x256).
   2. Set CSS

      body {
        width: 100%;
        margin: 0;
        overflow: hidden;
      }
      * {
        background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) !important;
        color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) !important;
      }
      @keyframes rotate {
        from { transform: rotate(0turn); }
        to { transform: rotate(1turn); }
      }
      img {
        margin-top: calc((100vh - min(100vh, 100vw)) / 2);
        margin-left: calc((100vw - min(100vh, 100vw)) / 2);
        animation: rotate linear infinite calc(60s/33.5*2);
        border-radius: 50%;
        width: min(100vh, 100vw);
        height: min(100vh, 100vw);
        object-fit: contain;
        display: inline;
      }

NOTE

If obs-spotify.text and/or obs-spotify.albumart names conflict or the naming convention is mismatched with others, you can use that as the suffix. (like [TLP] obs-spotify.text)

Step 3. Configure obs-websocket

1. Open OBS
2. Navigate Tools -> obs-websocket Settings.
3. Check the Enable WebSocket server
4. Configure the Server Settings
5. Click the Show Connect Info
   • remember Server IP, Server Port and Server Password (if password is enabled).

Step 4. Create a bat file

Create a bat file and place it in same folder.

@echo off

REM Please remove this set line if OBS authentication is disabled.
set OBS_PASSWORD=PLACE_YOUR_OBS_PASSWORD
set DISCORD_TOKEN=PLACE_YOUR_DISCORD_TOKEN

obs-spotify-bridge

IF %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 (
    echo.
    echo ---- ERROR OCCURRED ----
    echo Please READ the backtrace.
    echo.
    pause
)

NOTE

If you run OBS at a non-default port or different host, additional settings are required.

set OBS_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1
set OBS_PORT=4455

Step 5. Double click the bat file.

You can use it now! If you need a additional support, you can create an issue or send a DM to @yanorei32.
