I was having problem getting smg to output to the *.txt file. I moved smg folder out of the OS folders and to another drive. Smg wouldn't change the output folder. So I deleted that folder of smg and extracted smg from the zip to the new destination. Confirmed the output folder had changed.Smg Right Click properties, compatibility checked run as administrator. Now it works.
Basically if you are having problems make sure you are not running smg within your OS folders. For example C:\Users\username\*
Hope that helps.

Thankyou for the program, and thanks to who fixed the chrome groovemarklet

I'm trying to set up this program to run on my twitch account. I've downloaded it. Set it up to run with Windows Media Player and/or itunes. I've run through the step by step instructions on the first page of this thread and nothing comes up on my stream. I've selected Source --> Text --> Properties --> Select: Use Text from File --> current_song.txt --> Nothing comes up. Whats going on? I downloaded itunes only because Windows media player wasn't working and it still doesn't work. What am I doing wrong, or do I just need to use yet another music program?

This is a very useful plugin. I'm still using 1.62 because I haven't had the need of updating it.
Yet, there was something I'd love to be added on 1.64 or any other future version. The possibility of the window starting at the same position it was left off when we last exited.
The reason for this is very simple, I, as many other people may or may not do, use this and place it on my 2nd monitor, but every time I open it up, it always shows up on my main monitor.
Is there any way to make this happen?

Hi, I've spent last day trying to get something working for pandora music displaying on my stream, but there is always a problem. Best I've had so far is is SMG detecting the song and saving it in the txt file. But whenever a ne song plays it stick to the first one unless I manualy change the song at the beginning. It feels like groovemarklet is active only for a shot time. Basicaly I have to click on it at the beginning of every songs :( Ive tried so many things I cant find a way to fix this. I have also tried another tool but then no matter what I would try the file is never created.
At this point I am asking for help!

With the latest update to spotify there seem to be an issue in recognizing what is currently playing.
SMG is pretty much not getting data from spotify

NVM Just fixed the problem with spotify not working. Here's what you need to do:

1. Go to your Downloads folder where you originally downloaded SpotifySetup (Hopefully it's still there).
2. Run this setup while your spotify is playing.
3. It will ask to close spotify to finish installing, click close.
4. Run spotify and check SMG if it works again. It should work now!

I guess spotify had an update recently that messed up SMG. It messed up snip too, and i found this solution from the snip thread.

good luck!

Shame this is a very temporary solutuion. What this does is that it reinstalls a former version of Spotify. so as soon as u restart spotify and have the update installed, the problem resumes :>

I cannot get this to work with Pandora. When I first opened the program the option to use Pandora was there. Selected it and ran with the bookmarklet. the option for pandora then completely disappeared from the list and nothing happened.
