Spotify and Chromecast solution that works.

Google have lately added Screencast, which means it can cast anything to TV.

 

1.) Enable that function on original Chromecast app on Android.

2.) Run official Spotify app on Android.

3.) Install "Rotation Lock Adaptive" or similar app from Google Market and lock the screen to horizontal mode.

 

Now you will get Spotify in 16:9 on TV, with cover, sidescrolling of playlist and whatever Spotidy app supports.

This is as good as Spotify could ever be with native support. You wont notice the difference.

 

Something kinda mindboggling here:

I read that Spotify can't support Chromecast because of Sonos.

Well. In a new Sonos advert in Norway, 12 month Deezer is bundled with Sonos, and it also supports Chromecast at the same time.

 

I have for a long time planned to switch from Spotify to something else, but there is no reason for that anymore.

1.) Screencast

2.) The song list is mostluy the the same at any big music streamer anyway.

I will just keep on using Spotify as always.
