I have the latest MM5 Build 5.0.4.2672 Release Candidate 1 installed. I just noticed that Tools>Addons has A LOT of Tools/Addons? The first I wanted to look into was the Spotify Addon because I have a Spotify account. Where/how can I find information about a specific Addon?

Hi,
Spotify addon is under devices and services and is listed under sync addons.

Hi,
I added https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=19462 so that we can improve how addons are listed in order to be in more common understanding way.

Where can I find information about this plug-in and what it can do for me?

Hi,
When you add it under services it will explain what you get Help and docs pages are not yet set. Basically you sync playlists to Spotify so that you can listen them on Spotify app. Same goes with Deezer service sync.

I am not big on playlists. I thought of another way to phrase this. Are there benefits to using this plug-in vs Spotify on Android?

Hi,
Simply said no, I do not use it at all. hate streaming services that require Subscription in order to listen songs that you like (read PLAYLISTS).

Only benefits I have found during testing is that I can sync PC playlists to spotify and listen on A/V that have Spotify. Downside is that in many cases Spotify do not have nearly half of tracks in my playlists (at least versions of tracks I like to listen eg. remixes).

I did a quick read. It seems as if it is possible, using your Spotify credentials, to reference things on Spotify?

What do you mean by reference?

IOW, play music w/o limitations as when using Spotify directly?

No, playing music from Spotify is limited to 30 seconds per track.

I have a Spotify account, but this does not make a difference with this limitation of 30 seconds per track? That's too bad. I wonder why Spotify does this?

No difference, this plugin's primary use is Syncing Playlists between MediaMonkey and Spotify.

Hi,
If your local tracks are paired with spotify lists then there will be no limitations. Well if your tags are in order I have 60/40 success rate.
