If you already had an app registered you can add the callback to that one. I can also add you to the buildin one, but I need to add your emailadres to it. If you want to share it I can add you.

I added you to the default app, but I might take some time to process.

you will need the default clientid. It is already prefilled, but you need to save it;

After you saved the id, you can add a user account. Only the account you supplied will work with this id. You can also use the loxone app to add your account

Yeah well, this is actually a bug. You should be able to disable Spotify Connect if you don’t want to use it. However, Spotify playback will still use Spotify Connect internally when playing Spotify content via Loxone library.

At the moment, the global input setting blocks this. As a workaround, you can disable the inputs for all zones and Spotify playback will still work. I will fix this in the next release so Spotify Connect can be disabled properly at a global level.

I’ve made a lot of changes to the engine recently, which requires continuous testing of all components to ensure nothing breaks. Unfortunately, due to recent changes on Spotify’s side, I’m currently unable to use Spotify myself. This affects librespot and Music Assistant as well, but only for “new” Spotify accounts.

If you can provide a debug or spam log of playing a Spotify item, I’ll try to fix the issue based on that.

another issue on spotify:

if you play any spotify playlist, only 1 song will by played, system will not play next song
system looks confused - see attached video - low quality due size limit attachment - it looks like every song have max 9 sec, then stream starts from 0 - so system have no idea where currently is, every 9 sec its starts as new time line, however song is playing ok - maybe based on this issue system will be not able to start newxt song in playlist

There is a fix for both issues on the testing branch. They are untested so they might not work.
Try the branch and see if the issues are gone. If they are still there supply me with a new spam log.

You are sure you are on the latest commit? try "git pull" from the application root.

If the issue still persists I will need a new spam log while the issue is being reproduced. I cannot reproduce issue or test the fix myself, so we might need another fix or two
