Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

Did this just start today? Is it a new problem?

Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

I was running as user, not root.

I'll do it again and see what happens

Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

Well today was the first day I tried the other fixes so I can't say for sure since my pyRadio hasn't worked for a few weeks.


But seriously, how frakkin' often does Pandora change it's login protocols? How the heck can all of the other Pandora apps keep working without constantly pushing updated login API compliant code to peoples devices???

Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

Pandora is a closed API. They probably have some method of pushing to their official versions for android and iphone updates. And obviously, they probably release updates to their apps before actually updating site code.

The rest of us have to figure it out after the fact.

When you say 'all the other pandora apps' what are you talking about? The only ones I can think are the 'official' apps and thats because Pandora can fix them before they break them. Every single problem I've faced was also faced by pianobar and spbogie's XBMC modules. Pandora changes something which breaks us, and one of us (almost always pianobar's author) will reverse engineer the problem from pandora's own flash sources and put them into his code and the rest of wait until thats updated and fix our stuff.

Now.. I don't follow pianobar's source code every day even when I was maintaining this properly. So i waited until either my app stopped working, or one of you reported a bug, before going to pianobar and looking to see what he's changed/fixed and updating that one problem. But I don't comb through the whole source tree to see *all* changes (that's how things like thumbs up/down get broken sometimes because I missed it.)

If I run pyRadio as user in the terminal this is what I see in the terminal:

~ $ /opt/pyRadio/pyRadio.py
~ $

The program opens and I can see my stations, but, nothing plays.

If I run as root here is what is displayed on the terminal:


BusyBox v1.6.1 (2008-09-18 09:43:17 EEST) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

Before the program is opened I get prompts for my username and password. The program then opens and I can see my stations but nothing plays.

I have an n810 with pyRadio version 4.7 and I can't remember if it came from the extras or the extras devel repository right now but the behavior is the same (except once after a long long time after I had quit trying to use it and doing something else it did play one time. I know that time it was the file from devel.

Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

i ran my pyradio from root and got this

does this mean anything to anybody?

Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

i try it again and i got this

i see "access not allowed due to licensing restrictions in our country" do you think this is the problem? how can i solve this? do i need to use us proxy?

Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

I was actually referring to the official Android, WebOS, and iPhone apps which do not appear to update very frequently at all.

Didn't realize that the API is closed and that all of the above apps are developed and release by Pandora themselves.

This makes what you've accomplished with pyRadio all the more impressive.

Re: [application] pyRadio (Pandora)
 

Yeah, that's a well documented problem for people connecting from IP addresses outside of the United States. Using a proxy connection will alleviate that... but you'll still probably end up hitting the same out_of_sync problem that many of the rest of us have.
