Spotify Connect on RuneAudio

[dynobot]

spotityd.conf

[global]
username = "blahblah" <-----your account name
password = "blahblahblah" <----your account pw
device = "default:CARD=DSD" <------hw:....can not be used
volume-control = "softvol"
device_name = "Bedroom" <----text only what ever name you want
bitrate = 320

Also even though you seem to be getting sound 'without' enabling the kernel for I2S it still should be enabled to get the intended function of a I2S card. Note: all HATS function in I2S mode to communicate vs USB.

Also when you started the service, since its running as root, you can't include the --user in the systemctl line, per instructions.

systemctl start spotifyd.service
systemctl enable spotifyd.service

aplay -l -and- aplay -L gives two different results. Spotifyd uses the output from aplay -L

Therefore the line should read something like default:CARD=something, as supposed to hw or card which is the output of aplay -l

Good luck

aplay -L shows the correct card with the following name: sysdefault:CARD=sndrpihifiberry

I copypasted the line in spotityd.conf and checked that is correctly detected.
No way, after the reboot I still get the same error

I've already used that configuration without success.
I'm pretty convinced that the problem does not depend on the configuration file and I suspect (from what I've read around on similar problems, although not strictly related to runeaudio and spotifyd) that is something related to the listening port that spotifyd uses to connect to.
I'm quite ignorant on the subject, but from what I read, it could be that the service tries to connect to a port that is occupied by another running service. And if this is true, I now need to understand how to see if there are other active processes and how to possibly stop them.
Is it possible? What do you think?
Thanks

Hi rtfq,

I think you should give rern's version a try:
