I have a question if it is possible to make librespot (Spoify connect) play using the Bluetooth device on RPI3?
Either GUI or command line way will be good.Currently I have Squeezelite being able to play to bluetooth using „Soundcard – Pulse (…)“ – set up in Web form.
I also added „-C 10“ in „Command Line Options“ Web form setup.However in Spotify Connect setup, in Web form I only have:
Output Device:
hw:ALSA – ALSA, hw:ALSA
hw:sndrpihifiberry – sndrpihifiberry, hw:sndrpihifiberry
(no bluetooth device)
I thought I could run librespot by command line:
/opt/spotifyconnect/librespot –name SpotiPi –username *** –password *** –disable-discovery –cache /tmp
But it still does not play through my Bluetooth device.However the Spotify on my laptop connects well to „SpotPi“ on Max2play and plays through it (with no actual sound => I suspect it may play through Hifiberry dac).
Unfortunately I can’t make librespot to display available devices, as the following command shows nothing
/opt/spotifyconnect/librespot –device ?Dont know how to make it play through Bluetooth; please help.
Hardware is Raspberry Pi 3 + Official 7″ touch display + hifiberry DAC (not sure about the exact model)
The bluetooth receiver is Logitech Bluetooth Adapter.
Logitech server is set up on Synology NAS.Here I include some infos from librespot program:

Easiest way would be to use the Spotty Plugin for the Squeezebox Server which also offers Spotify Connect, now.
