Im unable to see "Spotizerr Auth Tool" as a device in Spotify's Connect menu to complete the new authentication process as detailed in https://lavaforge.org/spotizerrphoenix/spotizerr-phoenix/releases/tag/v0.0.12
I am still able to successfully download music with my old, previously saved Spotify credentials (needs frequent
docker compose restarts though)My Setup:
Steps to Reproduce:
spotizerrphoenix/spotizerrimagedocker run --network=host --rm -it spotizerrphoenix/spotizerr-authWaiting for Spotify Connection...Additional Steps Taken:
powershell:
docker logs:
Spotify Connect menu:
Thank you for all your work resurrecting this project!! Please let me know if I can provide any additional details!
@done_wonder interesting, seems like you have it setup correctly but quick checklist:
http://localhost: 7171sorry not much help but i wonder if there could be something missing there. based on my interpretation of your steps, it seems like you could try it on the spotify desktop app that's running on same device as your docker auth tool
hope that helps but let me know if you're still running into issues there 👍🏻
[RESOLVED]
I love posting nice github/lavaforge issues because then I almost immediately realize i just havent read the docs enough >.<
I fixed this issue by following the
If docker doesn't work (it probably won't unless your on linux)advise and running it myself outside of docker. Me in the past may have avoided this issue if the spotizerr-phoenix release notes (https://lavaforge.org/spotizerrphoenix/spotizerr-phoenix/releases/tag/v0.0.12) were more verbose about using the auth tool on windows, but I acknowledge the onus is completely on me to read the provided docs in more detail.steps to replicate on windows:
git install https://lavaforge.org/spotizerrphoenix/spotizerr-auth-phoenix.gitcd spotizerr-auth-phoenixpython -m venv .venv; .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1; pip install spotizerr-auth-phoenix.\spotizerr_auth\main.pylibrespot-spotizerrSpotify Connect menu ON THE SAME MACHINE
Thanks for the quick reply, and thanks again for the effort you're putting in to keep this project going! Please feel free to close this issue
awesome, glad you got it working again ✊🏻
Can either of you verify that the librespot client shows up in a browser window of Spotify, or are you both using an actual Spotify client installed on your computer? @spotizerrphoenix @done_wonder
(I don't have it installed anywhere and unfortunately Flathub seems to be down right now so I can't easily install it and test, so I'm asking here while I figure that out)
Also, since when does this process require opening Spotify on the same device? I swear that in the past I've just picked up my phone and connected to it from the installed app.
EDIT:
Nevermind, I forgot Spotify has a PPA on their website.
To answer my own question: YES this process only works if you open a real Spotify client, not a Firefox window
When I installed spotizerr for the first time 3 months ago from image spotizerr/spotizerr, I am able to connect librespot from my iOS app in same LAN network.
Not sure if it still works now but I wil leave it as it is because my instance is running on a cli ubuntu server so no app can be installed.

FYI for anybody who happens upon this, but if you're in a situation where you do need to recreate credentials and you can't install apps on the server running your spotizerr instance, keep in mind that you can run the auth tool on any device that has access to spotizerr. You just point it to your instance. That's what I did; I ran the auth tool (through docker) on my desktop, where I installed the spotify client, and pointed it to my spotizerr instance running on my server over tailscale.
new update to the auth tool to use a custom spotify connect device name:
