[RELEASE] Rdio Music Addon

I am having the same authentication problem under XMBC 12.2 on my Raspberry Pi. When there is a fix, will someone reply to this thread to notify us?

Thanks!

Hi All,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you all - I've got a lot of things going on at the moment and haven't had the time to dedicate to this plugin that I'd like.

I've had some discussions with the Rdio guys and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a "proper" solution available for XBMC/Rdio integration This means that we'll have to keep cobbling together our own solutions.

The authentication problem is caused by changes to the Rdio website. Previously the plugin did auth simply by hitting the Rdio login pages using an HTTP library. They've changed their site so that all the forms are handled by Javascript, which means that this approach doesn't work - you really need to use a proper browser to log in and get the authentication PIN. I could make this a manual step that you have to do when setting up the plugin, but I'd like to avoid that if possible, so I'm working on an automated solution using phantomjs (running into some problems, so if anyone can help out let me know).

Will continue to update this thread as I make progress.

Can someone help me please? i'm getting a sript error message... i'm trying to connect lastfm on xbmc but i'm getting this ( connect failed ... Script failed : rdioplugin.py ) my rdio username, password and API are correct and i living in available countrie... I'm using XBMC v12.2 (Frodo), with Win7x64.

Here is my debug log file:

Thank you.

I've managed to submit the auth token, I just cannot find where to put the pin code it gave me. Any help?

Hi Drift,

Can you give more details? Are you trying to use the script I posted or the rdio addon?

Hey there, I just saw your script and I'm going to give it a try.

I successfully used nbmaltais's script (or at least I thought it was successful), and I can see my collection and playlists. However, everything only plays for 30 seconds. I checked the debug log, and the path of the file being played has "30s-96" at the end, which I think was the cause of a similar problem a few versions back. Anyone seeing the same thing?

I made the change to rdioxbmc.py that was suggested here, and this seemed to fix the problem.

Hi alsacefan,

Did you use the R cookie from the http://www.rdio.com or from the rdio-xbmc authorisation page? Both page generate an R cookie but it's the one you get when login into your account at rdio.com that seems to work (it should be longer than the one from the authorisation page).
