Configure the Spotify Streaming Service (innuOS 1.x)

The Spotify streaming service integration is provided directly via Logitech Media Server (LMS) software installed on your Innuos Server. This article will describe how you can configure the Spotty plugin within LMS in order to be able to play Spotify via iPeng/Squeezer as well as use Spotify Connect.

1. Go to my.innuos.com and access your server innuOS dashboard;

2. Go to Settings > Streaming Services > Configure Spotify and add your Spotify account details (Spotify username and password, please don’t use an email address or connected account as username and make sure your password doesn’t use punctuation marks or delimiters as they may fail to be parsed correctly). Click Save;

innuOS dashboard > Settings > Streaming Services > Configure Spotify

3. On the address bar of your browser, add “:9000/default/settings/index.html” at the end of the address (remove the quote marks). The address should look like this (bear in mind your server IP address will probably be different):

http://192.168.1.100:9000/default/settings/index.html

This should present you the following screen:

4. Click on the Plugins Tab on Top. This will show a list of plugins installed. There will be an entry there for Spotty. On that line, click on Settings;

5. You are now on the plugin configuration. Make sure your options look like the ones on the image below. Make sure the music player box is ticked on the Spotify Connect section;
