[WINDOWS] HOW-TO stream Last.FM, Pandora, etc. to XBMC using VLC (on Windows) - Verso - 2007-07-23 I've read a lot of articles about streaming Last.FM, Pandora etc. to XBMC. Most of them are vague, links are broken, info is outdated, etc. etc. So I thought I'd post how to do it here. Maybe someone will find this information useful. What this does and what it doesn't do:
VLC, or VideoLAN, is a free cross-platform (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux) media player that can also act as a streaming server. It is available from here: http://www.videolan.org/ Here is what you (minimally) need to do:
In XBMC, you'll need to manually receive the stream. Here's how:

- Bigfoot87 - 2007-07-29 Thanks for the tutorial! I'm gonna use it in combination with a microphone. - QuickJolt - 2007-08-21 ok hopefully the answer slaps me in the face right after this but there is no "DirectShow" tab in linux. Let me give you a list of the tabs available "File, Disc, Network, Video4Linux, PVR, DVB" Thank you for your tutorial now im going to blindly test settings out and hop for the best ill let you know what happens. I am using Kubuntu(KDE) if that matters at all and its version 0.8.6 - Verso - 2007-09-16 Hmm, good point. DirectShow is for Windows machines, obviously. I don't have a Linux machine here so I can't test anything myself. It'd be good to hear whether you got it working, though. - stacked - 2008-08-08 It works! Great tutorial thanks! - rwparris2 - 2008-08-08 last.fm is already integrated quiet nicely into xbmc http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=LastFM good tut though. You may want to ask for ninja status and update this page http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO:_Stream_video_using_VLC_(VideoLAN-Client) in the wiki. maybe we can get pandora going as a plugin? idk because its all flash... I'll look at it and see if I can figure anything out - kemik - 2008-10-28 I've setup LastFM on my XBMC so entered the username/password. Which is correct as when I go into the Music section I can see my fav artists, etc However, if I choose to play anything I get no sound Shoutcast works btw Pandora Streaming with Orb? - scheu001 - 2008-11-26 Anyone else out there using Orb to stream media? I can watch TV from my home PC's TV tuner, watch any movie or TV show I've recorded, and listen to all my MP3s from a Windows Mobile device (or any PC). I can even monitor a webcam attached to my PC. If I could somehow incorporate streaming a Pandora feed through Orb, my conquest of the galaxy would be nearly complete! - s789 - 2011-05-05 Hi anybody know how can i play this link in my VLC player .http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/saharatv/secure/live/feed01 i can play some other links http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/ uses same company</div> <script language="javascript"> var EmbedCode="<embed id=\"player\" src=\"http://bitcast-b.bitgravity.com/player/6/bitgravity_player_v6_1_4.swf\" wmode=\"opaque\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" flashvars=\"AutoPlay=true&streampath=http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/saharatv/secure/live/feed01?e=0%26h=04557ca5c46277708ebff27f993dc344&Mode=live&VideoFit=stretch&ColorBase=#070000&ColorControl=#4189ff&DefaultRatio=1.777778&File=http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/saharatv/secure/live/feed01?e=0%26h=04557ca5c46277708ebff27f993dc344&LogoImage=&template=/styles/auth.php&sessionid=v0l3r2j&adserver=no&LogoLink=http://www.livetvchannelsfree.com&ColorHighlight=#1c0005&LogoPosition=topright&ColorFeature=#000659\" width=\"658\" align=\"middle\" height=\"420\"></embed>"; $('#videoPlayer').html(EmbedCode) </script> - kingtiger01 - 2011-10-17 Not anymore(for atleast pandora)!!!!
