[RELEASE] Pandora Radio (Script) Music Addon (Updated 2011-11-13 : V1.2.8)

I don't know much coding outside .NET

This is a great plug and in it's current form doesn't seem too complex. Perhaps adding channels is a different animal.

Failed to authenticate listener. check username/password and try again later.

Ditto here. Tried reinstalling, no joy.

Try Rivy's branch of the script. https://gitorious.org/~rivy/xbmc-pandora...mc-pandora

This is working for me.

Rivys also fails for me with a similar 404 error. Driving me crazy.

Can anyone confirm how to make sure I have a complete uninstall of it? I'm deleting the addon in XBMC, closing XBMC down completely, then going into the .xbmc dir (Linux) and blowing away anything *pandora*. That should be everything right? Because the rivy version still comes up with author spbogie and has an identical config screen. The script that fails is definitely rivy.pandora... now though as I see that pop-up in the XBMC notification area when the script craps out.

You also need to delete the settings located in .xbmc/userdata/addon_data/

You need to created a file called advancesettings.xlm and put the following listed below into the file. For more info on this file, see http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Use...ttings.xml


600 represents the number of seconds (10 minutes), you can put in any number you like.

Turns out that the rivy build still says author is spbogie and so I was actually ok, there wasn't overhanging config.

Regardless of this, there's still problems, Rivy's git version has the wrong keys URL path in it so unless you already have keys downloaded it won't work. This is the failing URL:

https://raw.github.com/PromyLOPh/pianoba...ey_input.h

And the Dixon Butts one has a different failing URL which seems to stop me starting it up, this is a now 404:

https://raw.github.com/PromyLOPh/pianoba.../libpiano/

So Rivys won't work if you've not used it to get keys prior to this URL becoming invalid, and Dixon's won't work for me full-stop.

Thanks for all your help guys, but I'm giving up. Neither version will ever work from what I can see unless you happen to have had some semblance of a working setup in place already previously - newcomers to the party like me won't get either to work due to these 404s.

Absolutely nothing matching *pandora* under ${HOME}/.xbmc.

Same issue. Crazy.

That is weird, are you sure you don't have a directory ~/.xbmc/userdata/addon_data/script.xbmc.pandora?

After looking at the github for the Dixon Butts link, it looks like the address has had a slight update. So it should be:

https://github.com/PromyLOPh/pianobar/tr.../libpiano/

Now I don't know how many instances there are where these links are referenced (I have no background in this type of stuff), but if someone who has some experience can take a look and see if those updates work, I would be happy to test.

Doesn't work for me...get failed authentication bad username/password.

Funny the same username/password works in Directv/Android/pandora.com

Why don't it work here?
