So i think it crash here :

/// <summary>
    /// Attempt to get XML web response via HTTP
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="querystring">Querystring to be passed to webservice</param>
    /// <param name="httpMethod">GET or POST</param>
    /// <param name="useHttps">Whether to use HTTPS</param>
    /// <returns>The xml returned by Webservice</returns>
    /// <exception cref="LastFMException">Details of last.fm error or will wrap actual exception as inner exception</exception>
    private static XDocument GetXml(string querystring, string httpMethod, bool useHttps)
    {
      HttpWebResponse response;
      XDocument xDoc;
      var url = useHttps ? BaseURLHttps : BaseURL;
      if (httpMethod == "GET")
      {
        url = url + "?" + querystring;
      }

      bool webExceptionStatus = false;
      var postArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(querystring);
      var request = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(url);
      request.Method = httpMethod;
      request.ServicePoint.Expect100Continue = false;
      if (httpMethod == "POST")
      {
        request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
        request.ContentLength = postArray.Length;
        var s = request.GetRequestStream();
        s.Write(postArray, 0, postArray.Length);
        s.Close();
      }

Can you try attached bin ?

Too busy with fontEngine stuff now, I tested with build from "Early 1.6.0..." thread, unfortunately I had my modified Core.dll on but I really think it should not matter in these cases.

I think that for b) the problem is just that the processing is done in a separate thread without error handling -> all errors lead to hard-crash. In this case error is probably just a connection timeout to Last.FM site.

Hi
I have a valid Subscription in Norway for last.fm, but i cant get Radio to work. (Autoscrobler Works fine).
Radio is ok when using it With web/IE, but in MP i get this Message:
"radio station not supported with this country/client combination"

Why does last.fm work in IE but not in MP 1.6 ?

Seems they are happy to stream in a browser (where they have control and ads) but not via the API

Thanks, I liked to use last.fm radio (no need to act as a DJ) This seems to be difficult from all countries except UK, Germany and US
Is the country sendt to last.fm via the API?

It is based on your IP address /ISP

It would be nice if this would be a separate plugin in the future, I don't think it should ship with default MP setup. Maybe when blowing WindowPlugins to separate projects is done (see Area-51).

Same maybe for Minidisplay?

Hi guys,
What is that numeric field in the plugin - in my case it holds the number 100.

I'm on Mediaportal 1.3 final and want to test this plugin. What do I have to do? Do I have to make a clean re-install?
