Mopidy + ncmpcpp / pms

Hi!

I was so thrilled to see that there was an mpd-server with support for Spotify so I installed it immediately. However, when I try connecting to the server with ncmpcpp or pms nothing happends on the client-side. The servers output shows that a client has connected and that nothing went wrong.

Ncmpcpp starts reconnecting like a maniac and pms just sits there, blank, until it shows an UI with no songs in it.

However, when I start mopidy, it blurts out this message(among all other non-errors):

Exception in thread Thread-2:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 530, in __bootstrap_inner
    self.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pykka/actor.py", line 331, in run
    return Actor._run(self)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pykka/actor.py", line 162, in _run
    self.on_start()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mopidy/gstreamer.py", line 45, in on_start
    self._setup_gstreamer()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mopidy/gstreamer.py", line 62, in _setup_gstreamer
    self._pipeline = gst.parse_launch(description)
GError: no element "taginject"

Could this be what is causing this? Has anyone had this exact problem with mopidy?

I would post my ~/.ncmpcpp/error.log but it's empty and the config doesn't seem to have an option for turning on error-logging.

Any help appreciated greatly!

Regards,

David

Re: Mopidy + ncmpcpp / pms

The empty playlist could be due to this issue,

I noticed on my laptop that the version in AUR leads to high cpu load the moment a client tries to connect.
Perhaps this is related to you problems. I found some info github, but haven't tried it out yet.
