Like I said, it isn't finished but there's good framework there. Good to here it's not a total mess on the Xbox, I've only tested it on OS X so far. Brandon, let me know when you have some code on your project page; as I'd like to see this plugin implemented without having to grab a key from Moovida's server; didn't know you could even access their API stuff without a key...

If by key, you mean sessionID, then yes, I use one, i thought you meant like an offical API key

Hi,
I am currently writing a script for grooveshark and it's almost done. I'm able to search and browse music on grooveshark and play the files. What it currently lacks is the ability to manipulate playlists but that should be relatively easy since the backend is pretty much finished (I based it on dbuvid's code, moovida's plugin, and of course google). I didn't use groovesharks internal API in order not to compromise, in some way or form, xbmc's chances at using the upcoming official API.
But I also see that dbuvid and brandon15811 have started looking at the walrus code so I hope I haven't taken the script in the wrong direction.
What I would really like to see is a complete integration into xbmc so that I would be able to browse, queue, play, search etc. from the remote for the iphone. It's a challenge I wouldn't mind somewhere down the line but the script was the quick road towards something that worked. For anybody reading this with more knowledge about xbmc (and that should be quite a few), don't hesitate to give a few pointers to which parts of the source code I need to read up on in order to incorporate grooveshark into xbmc.
This is my first attempt at a script for xbmc, and python for that matter, so don't expect miracles - it might crash once or twice ;-) And the code probably isn't that pretty.
Anyway, I'll release the script as soon as it's finished - but I won't give an release date ;-)

I just finished classes for the year and I don't start work for another two weeks so I'll try putting some time into this again. Solver, I'd be interested to see your in-progress code, but if you want to wait that's fine.
EDIT: Also, maybe we should make a new thread, or have this one moved to Plugin Development.
