Description

Started seeing these new errors in librespot's output, seems like some kind of backend change again, and Spotify didn't provide the audio data for some requested tacks? librespot itself did not stop, just skipped a lot of songs.

Version

0.8.0

How to reproduce

I'm just playing a playlist of mine which has been working fine before.

Log

Don't have verbose logs yet, but modified librespot start command to include it and I will provide it next time it happens. But the issue itself is hard to reproduce.

Host (what you are running librespot on):

  • OS: DietPI Linux szobakocka 6.6.113-current-odroidxu4 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Dec 30 15:59:39 UTC 2024 armv7l GNU/Linux
  • Platform: ODroid XU4

Additional information

I wonder if this is going to be a frequent problem from now on or this is just a temporary "outage" on Spotify's side?...

Can you add some logging at get_metadata (https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/blob/dev/core/src/spclient.rs#L595) to print the response before we try and get the info we want from it ?

I'm gonna be honest with you, I've never written Rust code in my life 😅

Are you still seeing this? I heard reports elsewhere of a temporary issue earlier that's now resolved itself.

No it didn't happen for a while, so it may have been just a temporary outage indeed. I guess we can close this.
