Spotify hotkeys completely broken in the latest update

03 Mar 2018, 17:15

Unfortunately, Spotify did it again. They changed the UI in the latest update (1.0.75.483.g7ff4a0dc) and none of AutoHotkey's shortcuts are working. It's really strange because it seems that AutoHotkey isn't even able to use the WinGetTitle command.

Window Spy returns the following information:
Coldplay - Viva La Vida
ahk_class Chrome_WidgetWin_0
ahk_exe Spotify.exe
For example the following script doesn't work (returns only Now playing:):

Code: Select all

; Paste song name
^!c::
DetectHiddenWindows, On
IfWinExist ahk_exe Spotify.exe
{
WinGetTitle, now_playing, ahk_exe Spotify.exe
clipboard = Now playing: %now_playing%
Send, ^v
}
DetectHiddenWindows, Off
Return
I have no idea why this isn't working? Do you? And how to fix?
