Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui/issues/1072

similar to #931 #762, but I am using spotify-tui with Alexa instead of spotifyd. Worked fine for a good while, but suddenly it's starting to get 404 device not found constantly, to the point where spt is not usable anymore. The interface does popup though and does show the playing information etc.

Tried rebooting, reinstalling, and re-authenticating via spotify

is it recognized by other spotify clients? such as the propietary one and spotify-player ?

works with the webapp (https://open.spotify.com/) and with the official desktop client. Does not work with spotify-player (though I am not sure I have set it up correctly, since it only asks for a client-id, but not a client secret?)

well, it sort of works on my machine, does it recognize devices like a web client or a phone? if not, open a new issue, maybe your configuration is wrong

it recognizes the phone and the web player.

Also, I already used spotify-tui for a while, it more or less just stopped working yesterday, so I don't think it's an config issue?

yeah, seems to be an upstream spotify api change probably, try reporting it in librespot

Sorry, I don't understand. This project uses Spotify's web API to select an Alexa device for playback. Where does librespot fit into this scenario?

oops, i thought spotify connect was an integral part of librespot, if this is a issue actually with spotify-tui, i suggest you open an issue on spotify-player, as spotify-tui is literal abandonware.
