Looks like you just use this: $INFO[MusicPlayer.Title]
As for the Station name, I might be able to make something work with MusicPlayer.ChannelName but it will require either storing the name of the current station in a global variable or making a subsequent API call to get the station info and then setting the property in the QueueNextTrack method.
Thoughts?

I've read globals maybe aren't the best way to go, but I'm a old fart still learning to code... whatever works for you. Thanks again.

Thanks for looking into this.
If I use the iPlayer plugin and put the proxy details into the plugin it works perfectly. If this same setting, that is have a plugin proxy setting with proxy, username and password.
The global proxy setting works well with the iPlayer plugin. I put the proxy details into the global settings to try and get it to work with Songza. I would prefer if the proxy setting could be in the Songza plugin.
Cheers

I added the capabilities for HTTP proxies with Basic Authentication. I hope that is sufficient. aegemeni forgive me for not including your change in this release, I'll try to get to it in a day or two.
If you want to force the update, go to Settings -> Addons -> Get Addons -> ByALongShot's XBMC Addons(Press 'c" on this, aka bring up the context menu) -> Check for Updates

Hey guys. I pushed out another update this morning. I added the info label MusicPlayer.Comment which holds the name of the station. I couldn't see any better suited info label to put it under as ChannelName did not work unfortunately. Hopefully this will suffice!

I am having an issue playing certain genre stations, for example the pop-punk stations work but not the jazz stations. It says at the top script failed when I try bad stations. Anyone else having this issue?

If you're getting a script error please post the debug log

I think I ended up finding this bug on my own. Please force refresh the repository and get the new version (1.1.2)

It's not a typo. You have to do a force refresh of the ByALongShot repository. It should have happened automatically by now anyway. Maybe uninstall the plugin and the repo and try to install the repo and plugin from scratch again?
