Hi i've spent a long ass time trying to figure this out but ive had no luck. the error i get is

Could not get/set settings from/on resource.

Could anyone point me in the right direction? I'm trying to get spotify to stream on arch linux. Thanks

@idiotclock

Your version of gst-plugins-rs is too old, not updated for the Spotify changes requiring access token instead of username/password. I'm not exactly sure which version you need, since I don't see it in the changelog, but I think you need at least 0.13.4, the newest is currently 0.13.5.
You can build and install it from source:

I correct myself, I don't think there is a release of gst-plugins-rs yet containing the required changes, so it needs to be the code from git.
Instructions here https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Installing_GStreamer_Spotify_plugin builds from git.
