Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/issues/364

As of 1ce0706, Librespot doesn't seem to have a pipe backend, at least as compiled by default.

Am I missing something? Maybe it just doesn't need to be compiled, since it's so simple, but I can't find a way to choose it from the librespot command line (it ignores --backend pipe).

You can see what backends are available in your build:

./librespot --name foo --backend ?

As it happens, the pipe backend is not optional and always compiled. It certainly works for me:

./librespot --name foo --backend pipe

Thank you, I did try that, but I wasn't getting backends output; I must have had a typo in another command line switch.

I'll close this!

It is a bit weird because you do always have to specify the --name argument, even if you only want a list of backends. The error message does tell you but it's really easy to overlook.
