addon to get album art from what is playing on Sonos - dubbeljoe - 2019-11-01

Hi Fellow Kodi-ers.

I know that there used to be an add on to get Album art / Artist art on Kodi (XBMC) when playing music on Sonos.
The Add on is gone, nowhere to be found.
BUT, does anybody know if there is a replacement / something similar?
I really enjoyed looking at the artists pictures while listen to music.

thanks in advance for any answers.

regards,
Dubbeljoe

Perhaps the Artist Slideshow addon see https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=124880

Yes aware of that one.
But de Sonos is playing along on the Sonos system and not on Kodi. So some interface is needed between a sonos system (within the same local network) and the Kodi system. The Sonos add on that used to be part of the XBMC / KODI distro's did just that.

Anyone an idea?

does the script.sonos no longer work?  i see its been abandoned but it looks like it worked with at least kodi 17.

I'm kind of a noob on runing scripts.
How could I use the available scrip on github to get it working again?

You can probably try and click on the "Clone or Download" button and download as .zip.  Then from Kodi you can https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_add-ons_from_zip_files

Give that a shot.
