spotatui ~ Standalone Terminal Player

Posted by tom2tec on

spotatui plays Spotify natively and streams YouTube, your local files, Subsonic or Navidrome and 30,000+ internet radio stations from a single keyboard-driven player. Spotify is optional. So is the AI DJ.

Features:

  • Multiple sources — Spotify optional. Play from Spotify, Local Files, a Subsonic/Navidrome server, Internet Radio, YouTube, or Qobuz. The free sources need no Spotify account; press d to switch between them at any time.
  • Native streaming. Play Spotify audio directly, no official app or spotifyd required — spotatui appears as its own Spotify Connect device (Premium required).
  • Synced lyrics. Line-by-line lyrics that follow playback.
  • Real-time audio visualizer. A system-wide FFT visualizer (press v) that reacts to whatever is playing.
  • Cross-source play queue. Press z on any track to queue it — the queue plays across every source before your current context resumes.
  • Lua plugins. Extend spotatui with event hooks, commands, keybindings, popups, and theming.
  • Listening history & recap. spotatui keeps a local play history and can generate a shareable HTML recap (spotatui history recap).
  • Full CLI. Most of what the UI does is scriptable — playback, search, playlists, shell completions. Run spotatui --help.
  • Lightweight. ~78 MB RAM while streaming, versus a full Electron client. See Performance.

rescrobbled ~ Music Scrobbler Daemon

Posted by tom2tec on

Rescrobbled is a music scrobbler daemon. It detects active media players running on D-Bus using MPRIS, automatically updates “now playing” status, and scrobbles songs to Last.fm or ListenBrainz-compatible services as they play.

Among other things, due to sharing a Spotify account, I needed a way to scrobble to Last.fm without connecting the Spotify account to my Last.fm account. Rescrobbled offers a simple solution for this.
