Api

Hi Folks and thx for the lots of replies!

Well I think there are enough spotify projects out there that can remote control spotify via whatever interface (like for instance HTTP) or maybe also one could just write a thin wrapper over libspotify (which is free and available to public). So I think from the spotify side it is quite doable. Now I don't know the Rift API, is there really no way at all? Just like it was pointed out, even a filesystem event by the addon and a poll from the spotify side would be a solution (maybe Win7 already has filesystem events like OS X...so that there is even no need for a poll, which is ugly and expensive). The best solution would be some network or in memory interface, but I can understand if Trion is blocking those from inside an addon...

What is Rift connect, is it the Facebook etc. access from inside Rift? How could it be a help for spotify?


THX and BR;
