Post by: DermotM on January 28, 2020, 02:53:12 pm

Uhhh, MC itself doesn't support Spotify (or have Spotify integrated) so I don't think those reports are correct at all. I would be HIGHLY surprised if they were, and it somehow slipped under the radar. Where's the reports at?

The only way you'd be able to get Spotify working in MC is through the WDM driver using the official Spotify app with MC's WDM driver as the output sound device in Spotify. But no, MC26 doesn't have any sort of Spotify integration (or Tidal, Qobuz, etc.).

The only thing I can think of is that you might be referring to this thread.

If that's where the reports came from, I hate to rain on your parade but that post was an April Fool's joke. I completely forgot all about jmone's joke, haha. :P
