Wanted to share my Pandora "research" and will get my log files on here shortly.
First, I had the same issue most folks are describing here on:
--Windows 7
--EDEN, XBMC Alpha, and Beta 1, Beta 2
--Official Repository Supported Pandora plugin & both the "fixed" plugins (posts "1546" and the like).
NOTE - Did not try any of the "fixes" that called for modifying the python scripts.
For the most part, I believe I could have probably solved the issue in any of the earlier versions, but it took me until yesterday to at least come to one conclusion, which was the following:
1) Switching back to Full Screen mode vs Windowed mode greatly improved the chances that Pandora would continuously serve up new songs, however...
2) After the plugin played the first song in what I'll call the main plugin window (stations on the left, album art on right with buttons below) it then went to "semi full screen mode", meaning that the visualization was running in the background, but the menu was overlaid. The good news is that it served up the next song.
3) When the next song was be loaded it went to "full screen mode", visualizations, but no menu overlay.
4) When 3rd song concluded, plugin stopped serving up songs
5) Made no changes at all and opened Pandora plugin again and started up a station. This time it stayed in the man plugin window and continued to serve up songs continuously. However, an issue for me is that I really need XBMC in Windowed mode, wife watches shows on HDTV and I use computer on a standard monitor at same time. Full Screen mode causes XBMC to lose focus (shows desktop).
6) Seemed Pandora plugin was working fine, so switched back to Window mode. Now back at square one, plugin plays one song and quits.
Theory: There could be code in the plugin that references XBMC window (screen) properties such as, size, position, location, etc. I make that assumption, because the plugin's core function appears to execute and play songs, but just seems, at least in my case, to have it's behavior modified between success and failure all based on XBMC Video Output settings.
Current Setup:
OS: Windows 8
XBMC: Frodo Beta 2
Output: Panasonic HD TV 1080P Resolution & Dell 21" monitor
I have to head to work now, but will read up on how to provide log files when I get home this evening.
