Hey everyone,
Just wondering about using the Pandora online radio on xbmc. Couldn't find anything on it in the forums or wiki... it seems possible, but I don't know if there is something holding it back. Thanks for any and all input!

Does anyone know how the Sonus media players that are marketed on pandora.com play the streams? Could the same method be used in XBMC?

Rather than completely integrating Pandora into the xbmc interface, what about implementing a web browser in xbmc which could then be pointed at their site.
Is it feasible to port a browser like Firefox to the xbmc platform?
Our Wii has a simple web browser that we were able to download. I pointed it to pandora and it got like 90% of the way there (everything loaded and looked like it was going to work), then it ran out of memory.
Thoughts?

Boxee actually has a pretty awesome Pandora plugin. It would be great if one of the python gurus here could get it to work on XBMC. I know several of the boxee plugins work out of the box but this one does not seem to fall into that category. Cheers.

the bad thing is that Pandora only works in the US right? It used to work here in Australia, but not anymore?

All openpandora does is embed a browser (IE) that loads up the pandora site, then passes your key/mouse strokes on to the embedded browser.
@jterhune: you have a source that says they still use plain http get requests? I thought this was changed a while back because of how trivial it would be to grab them with only using a sniffer to determine the urls..

It looks like some of the xbmc and scripting work is done by boxeeproxee.pyo. Since it's a compiled python binary, we'll probably either need to get the source or try to decompile it for it to work.

Do we have a Pandora.com solution?
How about Hulu.com?
