i don't understand what would be illegal in reusing public http requests executed against a public server accessible to anyone freely. the source code to do it (whether python script or built into xbmc), if it is doable at all, would be open source as well.

and it is not like the xbmc project (with out without distributed binaries) and the entire xbox modchip scene don't have a questionable legality anyway.

its more of how you come about these http requests. which are not public! hence the need to sniff or backward engineer the current player. i've had the same problem with legality and my craftytv script. and thatt didnt even have user authentication. which it does now.the best thing todo is to get permission before anything is attempted.

read the xbmc online-manual, faq and search the forums before posting! do not e-mail the xbmc-team asking for support!
read/follow the forum rules! note! team-xbmc never have and never will host or distribute ms-xdk binaries/executables!

pandora is an online music site which will find similar titles to user input. you can check it out @ http://www.pandora.com/

it would be awesome if this could be integrated into xbmc, or a script could be created...its a sweet service

hi,

it's not possible atm because the site uses flash, which is not scriptable from xbmc...

by decompiling the player, it would at least be possible to make a pandora to mp3stream gateway that could run on your computer, and add that stream to xbmc

no for so many reasons.

biggest ones being it not being avail outside the us and no devs are .us and that they provide no open api...
