Extension no longer working, option completely missing from UI

[AlexADittrich]

Recently updated Chrome, extension no longer working. The playback speed adjustment is now missing

Chrome: Version 89.0.4389.90 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Have tried disabling and re-enabling in addition to uninstalling and re-installing the extension.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Update: as noted below, this issue is unrelated to the chrome update. This issue is related to a Spotify update.

Solution below

Yes, although firefox stopped working the same way, I don't know if it's because of chrome or spotify, but hopefully the developer can update this valuable tool.

Same here :S

btw I don't think it's chrome issue but spotify issue. My chrome is still in 86 version but the same issue appears

I suspect that the following element is missing now in Spotify's DOM:

spotitySpeedExtension/content-script.js

Line 76 in cf65506

document.getElementsByClassName('now-playing-bar__right')[0].appendChild (input); /* make our input exist on page */

Yes, the fix is to replace line

spotitySpeedExtension/content-script.js

Line 76 in cf65506

document.getElementsByClassName('now-playing-bar__right')[0].appendChild (input); /* make our input exist on page */

by

				document.getElementsByClassName('volume-bar')[0].appendChild(input); /* make our input exist on page */

@odiseo9999 Should be fixed on this branch: #8
You can pull the branch to your file system, and then load the unpacked extension into Chrome.

To be clear, the issue doesn't have anything to do with a Chrome update. Spotify updated their code and the extension needs to be updated to append the speed changer bar at a different location in the DOM.

Thank you bud, I will try this out ASAP

[odiseo9999]

i still really dont know how to do that?

@odiseo9999 , it's not easy until the extension is updated in the Chrome Web Store, unfortunately.

In the meantime, you may load the branch from the PR with the fix to your filesystem: https://github.com/faf0/spotitySpeedExtension/tree/faf0/fix-issue-7
Next, you may load this folder with manifest.json as an unpacked extension into Chrome:

• https://stackoverflow.com/a/24577660
• https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/getstarted/#manifest

Also, see https://github.com/faf0/spotitySpeedExtension/tree/faf0/fix-issue-7#install-from-github

please , make a actualization , i really need this amazing aplication for my job .

[faf0]

@odiseo9999 , I updated my previous comment, linking more precise instructions.

You may try the steps from https://github.com/faf0/spotitySpeedExtension/tree/faf0/fix-issue-7#install-from-github , but make sure you download the code from https://github.com/faf0/spotitySpeedExtension/tree/faf0/fix-issue-7

Hope that helps.
