Opening Spotify URIs in Spotify Linux Preview from Opera

November 16th, 2011 21:48 by ogrim

Using Spotify Linux Preview, I want to open URIs to songs and playlist from Opera – but it was not working. So here is how you fix it.

Stick the following script in a file:

#!/bin/sh
spotify -u $@

Make it executable with ‘chmod +x’

Go to Opera preferences by pressing Alt+P or Ctrl+F12, then go to ‘Advanced’, ‘Programs’, press ‘Add’, in ‘Protocol’ enter ‘spotify’ and put the path to the script in ‘Open with other application’. Now you can open all the playlists!
