respot.apk now available here on h3x.se
Finally took some time and compiled a new .apk file (have pretty much not touched the client code in almost 12 months..).Download link for your convenience: respot.apk
ReSpot “unpublished” from Android Market
As I'm no longer actively developing Servify nor ReSpot I've decided to pull it from the Android Market. I will make the .apk file available here on h3x.se instead for those that still use it.
FIXED: ‘HRESULT: 0x800703E6 invalid access to memory location’
After a long time, this issue has been solved.The windows version of servify now uses libspotify v10. Unfortunately other issues have arisen with the linux version of libspotify. Therefore linux still uses the old version.
Thanks to those who tested this windows version.
Facebook and Spotify
New Spotify accounts that sign up through Facebook is unable to use Servify.
An upgrade of the libspotify version that Servify uses is needed in order to support the Facebook logins.
Update: Facebook accounts can use Servify with their device login. Read more here: https://sonos.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/sonos.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1166
Mac Servify autostart tip
Another tip submitted by a user:
Tip for autostarting Servify on a Mac:
Create this one-line AppleScript in AppleScript Editor:
do shell script "cd /Applications/Servify; mono Servify.exe username password 1337 320 >/dev/null 2>&1 &"
Save the script as a run-only application. Finally add the saved application to the Login items of your account settings.

Windows autostart tip
submitted by a user on the facebook page:
small tip for those who want to run the .bat file unvisible: make a .vbs file with the following lines in it:
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\servify\remote_spotify.bat" & Chr(34), 0
Set WshShell = Nothingplease make sure that you enter the right path to your .bat file, but that's obvious I think. you could place this .vbs file into your startup folder.
Boxee client/plugin in the works by Rockboxee
Rockboxee is basing a new Boxee client/plugin on Servify in order to bring Spotify to the Boxee application.
Sneak preview of the client can be seen here: http://vimeo.com/19875428
Hopefully this will also mean that Servify can get an XBMC client/plugin!
We think this is awesome! 😉
new releases – new bugs… thanks for the appreciation on Android Market.
Last update has been received well (if Android Market ratings is anything to go by) - Thanks!
Of course, there has been issues with the new release - especially on the Servify side. I am working to resolve these, thanks to all who has filed bug reports to me the last couple of days.
Servify, ReSpot, jReSpot updates!
Servify
Big update!
The OpenAL audio backend is implemented and tested on all platforms.
This means one and the same audio backend is used on all platforms (Windows, OS X, Linux) and more importantly it is (hopefully) a more stable solution. Particularly on Linux and OS X platforms.
The downside is that another external dependency may have to be installed.
For Windows and OS X, go here: http://connect.creativelabs.com/openal/Downloads/Forms/AllItems.aspx
For Linux (Ubuntu!) you install the following package: libopenal1
ReSpot
Small bugfixes, incremental improvements. Expect more rapid development here soon.
jReSpot
Small features implemented:
+"DEL" key to remove from queue
+Shuffle
+Repeat
Please report any new issues, regressions, bugs etc ASAP! (as comment to this post or email)
New Audio backend: OpenAL
Been working on a new audio backend for playback, leveraging OpenAL (via OpenTK) which is a cross-platform audio library.
Unfortunately there's a regression on the windows build which is why there's not been any updates in a while.
The (in)famous error: "HRESULT: 0x800703E6" has reared its ugly head... Hopefully this gets resolved soon.
