@bac522

I am running Linux, Ubuntu 9.10, 2.6.31-20-generic i686). Built on Mar 1 2010 (SVN:28256) and I am not seeing the delay you are describing.

On my Zotac Mag it takes less then one minute from the execution of the script to hearing the first song. I'm not sure what to suggest, hopefully some one smarter then me can make a suggestion. Could this be related to Internet bandwidth?

Maybe I'll try the SVN version of XBMC and see if that helps.

If your using the tar.gz from github, your putting a folder inside a folder, extract the tar.gz to the scripts directory, then rename the directory to Pandora


Commit 4e4b37e works in my Win7, the most current does not - swalter - 2010-05-23

For starters, great script. I am guessing my problem is with the new feature you added to hide the Pandora window so that visualizations would display. I run XBMC in Windows 7 in a full-screen window rather than in true full screen. I am also on a dual-display, but xbmc is running on my primary display. I doubt dual display is the issue, but rather the fullscreen window.

The most current update on git logs in successfully and gives me a black screen with a flashing "P" but no love beyond that. I even let it run overnight last night to see if the delays other people witnessed were occurring in my setup and I just needed to wait for my channels (3 total) to come up. No luck (or love).

Also, in this setup, I cannot Escape out of this black-screen-with-flashing-P, I can only alt-F4 and quit XBMC entirely. Nothing appears to crash, I just lose control of XBMC until I restart it.

The 4e4b37e commit that you referenced as being operational under Linux works beautifully on my setup, but of course keeps the main Pandora window visible at all times.

Thanks for a great script; looking forward to being able to get my visualizations back one of these days. Cool

I had to register to thank you for this script, it works flawlessly on my machine (acer revo 3610 with 3gb ram) and xbmclive installed on a SD card. It takes 30 seconds to boot up my stations (about 30) and then plays without a hiccup.

Thank you so much.


Error Messages on XBOX - lawprof - 2010-05-27

I am trying to run the pandora script on a recent version of xbmc installed on an original xbox. I have followed all the instructions in the first entry in this thread, but the script fails to run. At first, I see the word "running" next to the pandora entry in my menu of scripts, but that word quickly disappears and I am left viewing my menu of scripts. The log reveals the following messages:

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

@swalter
That's the same problem which appeared for me under Linux yes. I'm doing some rather interesting things with the skin to accomplish the effect, and it doesn't seem to like it always. I have an idea to fix it, but have not had the time to work on this much recently.

@lawprof
Define "recent"


- lawprof - 2010-05-29

Not quite as recent as I thought -- xbmc 8.10 atlantis (rev 16144).


- lawprof - 2010-05-29

Upgraded to 4-27-2010 svn and the script is fully functional. Thanks!

Not working for me either. Thanks for all your effort on this. here's my log:

@jarod71,
The instructions are all there. If you want more help you're going to have to give more info than it doesn't work.

@rollinns,
That's the same error lawprof was experiencing. What version of xbmc are you running?


- lawprof - 2010-06-01

@rollins

I had the same error messages trying to install the script on an original xbox. First, I reinstalled xbmc using the most recent stable release (babylon), but got the exact same error message. Next, I installed the most recent release of xbmc for the xbox I could find (4-27-2010), reinstalled the pandora script and everything worked fine.


- rollinns - 2010-06-02

I tried lawprof's suggestion last night and installed 5-30-2010, and my log is from that version and the newest Pandora script and info I could find.

I was previously getting the "there's a problem with your encryption" error, so I found the "raw file" fix which fixed that problem and now it just says "Pandora (running)" and then the word running disappears and nothing happens. The log file is from after the encryption problem was fixed.

Something else that also may be helpful:
1. I'm running an original xbox v1.0 I believe.
2. I can't install anything from SVN, when I try it says it requires "X " but I don't know what's after the X because it doesn't scroll over to let me see the rest of the line. That could be part of it.

Thank you for your help and your speedy responses,
Rollinns
