Spotify Family

Spotify has recently improved the value of the Spotify Family plan
Previously, each additional stream on the family account cost 50% the price of the original.
That was $6 each in Australia.
This was better than paying full price for each stream, but nowhere near the value of something like Netflix which gives you 3 stream on most plans. Spotify could afford to keep this restriction as the dominant market player. Most likely it was Apple Music's new streaming service that forced them to change. (Apple as the price competitive player, imagine that...)

Now Spotify offers 6 streams for the price of 2. This is a major improvement if you have a family that likes listening to different music.

Squeezebox Plugin

Triode had been a major member of the community for many years.
His Squeezebox plugin for Spotify is the gold standard and far better and more flexible than the official Logitech plugin.
He also wrote the Squeezelite client that can turn any PC into a squeeze player. (The community has built an entire ecosystem of Raspberry Pi based hardware based on this player.)

The Spotify plugin did not support more than one stream and therefore could not support Spotify Family.
I built this plugin to modify the original Triode plugin to support Spotify Family.

When I used previously used two streams I used two servers. This was OK, but not that scalable.
Mika Fisher had demonstrated that is was possible to duplicate the original plugin and run side by side on the same server.

My version of Triode' plugin has 6 different instances of the plugin, one for each stream on a family account.

Installation

Server Settings -> Plugins
In the section headed "Additional Repositories" add https://richiezed.com/squeezefamily/repo.xml and Save.
NOTE: SOme users have reported having issues with the https://. This is also server over plain old http also, so if you can't add the repo, try http://richiezed.com/squeezefamily/repo.xml
Still trying to figure out the reason why...
You will then have a new section headed "SqueezeFamily Plugins" which will have the 6 instances listed.

Note that you must disable Triode's version first.

You can then set up each of the plugins in the same way you set up Triode's original with the 6 different Spotify account details.
