Last.fm - personalized radio streams in MediaPortal! (1 Viewer)

[donkenjo]

I'm having the same problems for last.fm playback: spinning wheel when using BASS or playback failed when using WMP.
On the other hand I can download profile information in the audioscrobbler plugin configuration dialog and last.fm does login when started. Trying to play any stream fails.
Running the last.fm software playback works fine. Is it possible to get better debug/log information without Visual Studio?

No last.fm software, firewall or anti-virus running in the background. Used SVN Build 14454 (29.04.2007 / 1:35 CET)

... never mind. It now play tag streams. So I guess it just needs more training.

I have a problem with the stream pausing about every 2 minutes, like network congestion or a poor Internet connection. Lastfm plays fine via the popup from the web site on the same machine. It doesn't look like anyone else here is having the same issue, but does anyone have any idea why this might be happening?
I am running version 0.2.2.0

No problems here as long as my connection is fine ;-)

You can try to increase the BASS player's buffer size (May increase the desync possibility of song information for now).

Today I've changed the plugin to use hwahrmann's latest BASS changes. Now MP can detect song changes through some signal in the stream itself. Therefore the track info, cover, etc are always in sync now.
Furthermore the #currentplaytime skin property does show the current track's position instead of the stream's current length.

Super! Thanks a lot rtv

When using the new, faster skipping method the following might happen:
- after the new song has ended BASS sometimes starts the next song for 1 or 2 seconds and then directly skips to another track.

If you realize this please try again after disabling Crossfading and tell me whether this does help for you as well.

Hi,
I can't get last.fm to work again. When I enter the plugin, I get the "streams might be temporarily unavailable" error
My tags are being loaded, but no music plays.
When I go to the last.fm site, music plays fine.
Other streaming media in MP plays fine.
It happens when either Bass player or media player is chosen, and I don't have the last.fm software installed.
ideas?....

Any version that is at least somehow "recent" / up to date should not have a player selection anymore...

 

[kalinium1]

I'm using the recent stable version (0.2.3.0).
When I read this thread, and people mentioned the player selection, I thought they meant the selection in the MP music section settings.
Anyway, do you might have any idea about solving this problem?....

Could you please produce a clean MediaPortal.log when this happens?
For this please:
- set the general log level to debug
- enable verbose logging in audioscrobbler plugin
- just copy&paste the log to http://pastebin.team-mediaportal.com
