    Re: Rockstar 2.0.2 - the ultimate online music plugin (Spotify&Grooveshark)

    I can't agree that $120 USD per year is too much for almost unlimited music that can be listened anywhere. Spotify is not a "radio" and I also believe that Spotify cannot be compared to Last.Fm/Pandora since you cannot really choose there what you really want to listen to on a track level. I haven't used my local MP3 collection for a long time.

    I think Spotify is a bargain for £120 a year.. saves me faffing with MP3's or trying to organise them etc..

    Rockstar is an awesome plugin too, I love it!

    Is there any way to get a visualiser working with Rockstar plugin or any plans to incorporate one? My kids love watching the one on itunes but I prefer to use Spotify through MePo!

    Hi

    Still can't load my Spotify playlists.
    I can search and play files.

    I use MP 1.2.0.0 Beta and Rockstar 2.0.2.
    :confused::confused:

    Hi
    Without having to read through all the posts can someone tell me where the download for rockstar 1.0.3 has gone. I'm running MP 1.1.3 and would rather an earlier version of this plugin. Can anyone help please

    OK it seems there is NO version compatible with the last major version of MP that being 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 for those on windows 7. This happens all the time with these plugins, is there a major technical hurdle to compiling the plugin against those versions? After all I like most people want a stable environment for MP and would rather not be running beta software (1.2) and have problems with all the other plugins.

    So is it a big ask to do a release for 1.1.x ?

    Thanks for your hard work

    Cheers

    Hi,

    Unfortunately it is too much trouble to maintain two different versions for MP 1.1.3 and 1.2.0 Beta.

    I can highly recommend installing MP 1.2.0 Beta which I've been running on my HTPC for a few months now. Just make sure that none of the current known issues will bother you.

    Hello,

    I have a requist.. An option to remember searchs history.. Is that possible?

    ??

    Also another question: Why is it not possible to pauze tracks? Is this because the plugin is not use Mediaportal's internal player? Are you still developing this plugin, and will be there any updates in the near future? :)

    Thanks for this plugin!

    Hi,

    Rockstar doesn't work here anymore! Maybe again a change in the api?

    Also a feature requist: On grooveshark.com, when you typ something in the search field, there are also search-suggestions.. That would be awesome to see in the plugin!

    And another point. I have played a bit with the grooveshark plugin for xbmc when I was by a friend that use xbmc. That plugin is really awesome.. Maybe you can take a look to it for some good inspiration! :)
