[RELEASE] RadioTime Plugin Addon - Free Talk and Music Radio Online (WIP)

Just trying this out, thanks. I can't get it to run though, get an error popup at bottom right when trying to run it.

Pastebin log: http://pastebin.com/tyTQR5ru

(installed on 10.0 final as portable installation, tried it with foldernames 'script.music.radiotime' as well as 'plugin.music.radiotime') - same thing.

Doing a search for a similar error gave me the following, bottom few posts look relevant:

EDIT: I installed the simplejson plugin, now works
(got from http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/xbmc/addons...implejson/ but I guess there's also an easier way).

Great stuff, going to be trying this out tonight and see if I can get the local radio going

Thanks very much for this!

Ok, just had a quick play and its just giving me the spinning 'working' in the bottom right hand corner of the screen when I try to play Heart Gloucestershire, tried it a few times and it does the same thing each time.

here's the log;

Thanks so much, now that SHOUTcast has turned its back on the community hopefully your addon will be just what everyone needed!

As others have pointed out not all streams work, but one feature I'd really like to see is a search, the TuneIn Radio RadioTime app for iPhone has a very nice search that lets you search by station/show name or song name and is very useful for navigating the thousands of streams out there.

Workshop like a charm! Thanks a lot.

I have tried for the life of me to get this installed and just dont understand the instructions. Can you please be a little more specific on the install steps. I am using XBMC live install. I have this on my droid and my wife loves to listen to music from her home town. If i can get this to work the I might have a chance to use my phone.

Thanks

Great stuff, works like a charm (despite the rather awkward installation procedure). Definite feature request: being able to log in so that favorite stations are shown.

Keep up the good works !

I notice when I look at local stations list in Radiotime in XBMC there are a lot missing that i see when i look at the Radiotime local stations list in my web browser. Is that normal?

Was looking for just this addon after using RadioTime on my android tablet.

However, I cannot figure out how to install this thing. I'm using xbmc live installed on my acer revo and I can use putty to log into it:

The first install instructions using git, I can cd to the correct folder:

cd ~/.xbmc/addons

but then using: "git clone git://gitorious.org/xbmc-radiotime/xbmc-radiotime.git plugin.music.radiotime" I get a "-bash: git: command not found" error.

I would try the 2nd install method of just extracting the folder, but since I'm on a windows pc, I cannot seem to open the linux file system from my pc.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

I can't get this to show up on my ATV2 at all, and I have followed everything in the first post, and read through this complete thread. Any suggestions would be appreciated, I simply just can't see the plugin anywhere.

I was able to get it to install following these instructions from another addon post for pandora:

cd ~/.xbmc/addons/

wget -O xbmc-pandora-xbmc-pandora-master.tar.gz http://gitorious.org/xbmc-pandora/xbmc-p...all/master

tar -xvzf xbmc-pandora-xbmc-pandora-master.tar.gz

rm xbmc-pandora-xbmc-pandora-master.tar.gz

mv xbmc-pandora-xbmc-pandora script.xbmc.pandora

cd $_


just change the http URL to the radiotime gitorious URL, and change script.xbmc.pandora to radiotime.

Also, even after I ran these commands, it still didn't show up in my addon list until I rebooted my xbmc box. Once I restarted it, it showed up in the list of addons and works pretty well!
