Stays in connecting (Spotify).

Moller

Hi there,
I have an issue where the RuneUI stays in connecting to Spotify and I can do nothing.

Does anyone know how to get out of this stage?
Can it be done with a command after login with SSH?

It always boots up and stay in this stage.

Please help.

Kind regards,
Henrik

redis-cli set activePlayer MPD

and then

reboot

Dear Frank,

I got the same issue with Henrik.

But, I don't know what is SSH? I am using Raspberry Pi B+ and I have no Linux knowledge.

Can you give me more description to solve this problem?

Henrik, have you solved the problem?

Hi Jack,

with SSH you get access to the command line of your Raspberry Pi from another computer on the same network.

Depending on the OS you are using try SSH from Windows or SSH from Linux or MacOS

An other possibility is to connect a keyboard and monitor to your pi.

For both variants you need to enter username and password:
user: root
password: rune

Now you can enter the commands from above.

Dear Frank,

Great, it works!

Thank you so much.
But still got problem to jump to Spotify. It will happen again!
Last night I have to format the SD and re-install the Runeaudio to solve my problem and now the new problem is the wireless can not to link via PC.
When Eth. wired I can see Wireless and Eth0 both active in different IP. But can not connect it via wifi after reboot like yesterday.
How to setting the wireless for cell phone control via Android?

Sorry to ask more!

Best regards,

Jack

I ran the above command, and after reboot, I see it starts to load the default MPD, but after a second goes back to Spotify. At which I get the infinite connecting wheel.

I don't want to reinstall, as I run a wifi connection, and don't want to have to reinstall everytime something goes wrong.

Is there another option?

Where do I disable spotify entirely, with SSH?

Hi sesheron,

spotify can be disabled via

 redis-cli hset spotify enable 0

and after reboot, I see it starts to load the default MPD, but after a second goes back to Spotify.

This is nearly impossible, if you have done the switching command right.

Looks like he was seeing the same thing I was, just with not so great grammar, so it maybe didn't come across right.

I tried the switch command one more time. Copied and pasted as you typed it previously.
Closed all windows, then waited 1m or so, loaded back into http://runeaudio.local, and it showed the MPD at the top instead of spotify.
The whole time this window is greyed out and covered up by the connecting wheel.
After about 3 seconds, the word MPD switches back to Spotify, and it will continue to show the connecting animation.

Just tried the disable command. After reboot it is doing the same thing as before. Shows MPD for a couple seconds and then goes back to Spotify.

Maybe can we make it to where this connecting wheel doesn't prevent the user from reaching the options page?

Hi,

i also tried it multiple times and it works.

Please try this:

redis-cli set activePlayer MPD
redis-cli hset spotify enable 0
systemctl restart rune_SY_wrk
