AudioScrobbler (Last.fm) not working (1 Viewer)

[RaDiKal]

Hadn't tried Last.fm in a month or so. Tried last night with my existing 0.2.2.0 SVN from May 3rd and it said the service was not available. Well, I figured it had been awhile and the last.fm service might have upgraded so I used that as an excuse to step up to MP 0.2.3 RC2. I installed with SVN 15813 (Sep 9). Last.fm still won't play. The message I get in the MediaPortal.log is (default followed by selecting MP's group stream):

I went to the lastfm website and was able to get right in and play tunes. I verified my id/password are set in MP config and I was able to bring up info on the related tabs inside MP config. Any hints?

This was a problem at last.fm's end of things...

Your browser might have worked because last.fm can quickly update the destination servers to some fallback ones. MediaPortal however has to rely on the servers which are given by the handshake...

I am having this trouble with 0.2.3 RC2 and the link you provide doesn't seem to have any info anymore. Could you let me know the solution?

I get "Playback on selected stream failed"

There is a different link at lastfm ( http://www.lastfm.de/forum/21713/_/331072 ) which talks about others having issues. Checking my logs...

I see I can get the tags, but I get a failure on playing the stream:
