Comment on Lastify: More Last.fm/Spotify hacking by George Brocklehurst

Lastify is not working with the latest version of Spotify. Something’s changed within Spotify which is preventing Lastify from loading, but I’ve not had time to properly dig into it yet. I’ll keep you updated.

Similar problem for me. Used to get message that it couldn’t be loaded with older version. No message now that updated to latest version but nothing happens at all. Please help!

This is the console message I get:
13/03/2010 10:50:20 SIMBL Agent[755] warning: failed to get scripting definition from /Applications/Spotify.app; it may not be scriptable.

Hi,

Great idea! But I don’t know how to get it started? I drag the lastify bundle to the SIMBL plugins directory, but nothing happens. I’m new to this, so maybe I’m doing it wrong.

Thanks!

Same here. I installed SIMBL and the plugin bundle. But nothing happens…

hi george many thanks for splitting up the bundles, is there any idiot proof guide to installing this. i still get nothing, i unpack SIMBL to its directory of choice (library/app support) within this there is a folder called plugins into which i drop the lastify.bundle file and authenticate. is something then meant to happen, when i start spotify nothing has changed and the tabs do not appear. Im probably missing something very obvious but i dont know what it is

Thanks, I’ve been looking for a staging strategy. I’m gonna give this a shot.

@Toby: You just need to grab the latest version from here: github.com/georgebrock/lastify/downloads

Hi, since the upgrade to Spotify 0.3.23 I get a SIMBL error message saying Lastify hasn’t been checked and won’t be opened. Is there an update or a workaround for this?

@Jamie: Glad you found the code useful. I agree that an official AppleScript bundle would be a nicer interface. Don't read too much into the specific decisions I made about how things should work – it was very much a process of trial and error. I wrote another SIMBL hack for Spotify a while after the hack day, which is also on GitHub.
