Pandora MusicBox 1.3.3 (1 Viewer)

[fforde]

I have a simple qustion.

On the main page I don't have an icon for pandora, I am using the Avalon skin. Is there a hover.png file I need to copy from default?

Thanks,

If you use Basic Home then you will probably need to use the Basic Home editor that comes with the skin. There is a wiki page about how to use it. You may also find people that could give you more information in the Avalon forums. Good luck!

I am hoping to find some help.

I currently use the Mustayaluca Skin, which unfortunately doesnt work with the pandora plugin.

I copied the XMLs from the default wide skin into the Mustayaluca skin and tweaked about with the XMLs until i got everything to be sorted on a 1080 resolution. everything was working fine, then suddenly it just started jumping forward to the next song quickly like after 2-4 seconds. Is there anything i can do? i would rather not use multishortcut to a browser for pandora

Here are the files that i edited and look great now....but is not working properly.

Does this happen in any other skin. Please confirm it does or does not happen using the defaultwide skin.

hmmm...it does seem to be doing it in the default wide skin...right know it has burned through 5-6 songs in less then a minute. There seems to be either no song ever starting, or if it does its for a few seconds, and the progress bar screams across...many times faster then it should for the song it is intended.

Sorry, i thought this was just an issue because i was trying to use an unsupported skin.[DOUBLEPOST=1359149648][/DOUBLEPOST]Is it just me? or did pandora just stop working....at all, website and everything?

Ok, they are clearly making changes on there end. pandora completely stopped working everywhere (website/plugin) a few moments ago, and now the pandora plugin is skipping throught the songs again. (under the default wide skin). the website seems to be back working. Let me know if there is anything i can do.

-Also, there seems to be no music coming through now. the plugin just cycles through the songs at hyper speed with now sound at all. (in the default wide skin)

@fforde will look into it I am sure =) He is a busy guy tho so it might take some time.

Just for info: I'm using StreamedMP as skin and I have no problems.

it seems that this is an issue with my system. but i have tried all i can think of...i re-installed the plugin after deleting all the xml files and the dll file for pandora. the same thing happens in all skins, plays about 6 seconds of first song, then skips to the next but does not make anymore sound. it shows the covers for them but got through them really fast. any help would be appreciated, i really dont want to do a full re-install of mediaportal.

Since my last post i tried to basically install mediaportal on another computer i have. i did a fresh install, added no plugins, added no skins, nothing. then i installed the pandora plugin. Once i got into mediaportal and activated pandora, it started, and about 6 seconds into the song, it crashed mediaportal completely. The entire application closed with no error popup or anything. The following is the log entry from that run...

This is not just you. I am having the sames issues; has happened before, randomly. I've rebooted, and it's still occurring. I know this has come up in the past, but don't know of any solutions.

 

[Timothy Cobb]

i was noticing that random songs were being skipped leading up to it, but was not sure it was completely related. i did read something that sounded like this in earlyer posts but the solution was apparently found by the dev so i don't think it was a change we can make.

For the Time being i am just using multishortcut to pull up KYLO browser with an argument for it to go to pandora.com, after the first time i logged in it remembers me so minimal need for the mouse. I am glad i am not the only one though...was worried for a bit there if my stuff was jacked up. could the difference be between paid listeners and non paid listeners? i plan to pay here shortly, but want to see the plugin work 100% first
