Hello,

All was working well, but now when I change the music service and try to play something there npm gives me ... Error: Invalid music service.

Help greatly appreciated!

Please help...

I'm begging here... please help. All else works fine... I can do everything else... I just can't actually get it to play anything with the "Invalid Music Service" appearing.

Are you by chance using Spotify? I had a similar issue that modifying one line of code corrected.

[loftgren]

I am using Spotify. What was the line of code that you changed?

[SeanNazareth]

I was having a similar problem with Spotify.

I tracked it down to the fact that the Amazon Alexa Skill was outputting a line like:
"http://raspberrypi:5005/house/musicsearch/Spotify/song/artist:Coldplay"

Where the "service" was capitalized as "Spotify", but the javascript is looking for all lower case.

I patched the file "lib/actions/musicSearch.js" with the following:

----patch below----
196c196
< const service = values[0].toLowerCase();

const service = values[0];
----patch above----

which just makes the musicSearch use lowercase for the music Service.

This is a critical patch to get spotify working. Note lib/actions/musicSearch.js is in the node-sonos-http-api library
