Hi all, I am the maintainer of http://addons.kodi.tv/show/plugin.audio....alacticfm/ and would like to add in the list of all the audio channels a channel called Mixcloud which opens a list of all the shows from https://www.mixcloud.com/ifmx/ on Mixcloud. Listing and playing these shows works when using the Mixcloud plugin, but I want to 'rehost' it in my own plugin without forking this plugin. I am sure that more audio plugins with content on Mixcloud would be interested in this and I hope this reuse is welcomed here.

Can we make simple tutorial on how to do this? Steps would be:
- create dependency on the Mixcloud plugin from your plugin
- set the mixcloud account name(s) of the account(s) you want to list in your plugin
- add the account(s) as DirectoryItem, with all functionality for that/those items such as open and lits the items and More... and play

Let me think about that. It shouldn't be to hard to do this...

Nice addon!

tnx for the support

can i make a feature request?

Some mixes from my e-friends or djs or radio stations have the track identified, so is it possible to show the track name also so it can be used by two other great addons music related wich are artist slide show and crc lyrics...

would be great listening to mixcloud and get the lyrics and fan art along with it.

i only get the name of the mix on the "top" and the previous addons only search with that info.

Hope this is simple to do.

Other great thing possible with this addon is that it gets scrobbled by last.fm addon.

very cool and a perfect set up.

keep up making people happy

Edit: Just a picture for you to see what i see... it scrobbles the artist and lyrics right with last.fm addon, i just would like to see the artist and music info so i can get the artist slide show working along with it.

You have to do it manually.
Go to the user folder C:\Users\<YOUR_USER>\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\plugin.audio.mixcloud and open the file settings.xml.
Remove "access_token" and "oath_code" entries.

I'll add an option to do it from inside kodi in a future version.

1: Login with your mixcloud account using following link, the access code is in the landing page URL
Login with your mixcloud account / WORKS

2: You will return on the landing page (this forum thread). The access code is in the URL right next to code=, like this: forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116386&code=your_access_code / WORKS

3: Enter this code in kodi when asked. / DONT WORK

Kodi says the Code is Wrong.

Can you enable debug in the settings screen, try again and post the kodi log file afterwards?

[jackyNIX]

I just tested myself.

Apparently mixcloud add some strange characters at the end of the access code.
I Had to remove the last 4 characters (something like #_&_).

Try to remove some characters...

Please help.

There are 2 resolvers.

By default, the first one is the local resolver. That one throws the error.

The second resolver is offliberty. Apparently; that one doesn't work either (waits forever).
So I surfed to the offliberty website and tried to resolve manually, but the same thing happens, waiting... forever...

I guess mixcloud changed some things just to p*ss us off (they did it before)

I'll look into it, but normally offliberty will have it fixed before I do.
Check their website and change the resolver to offliberty when they are up and running again.

[zakedogg]

Super. Hope you fix soon!
This is the most used plugin on my kodi.
Thanks for the good work!

[jackyNIX]

I made a temporary fix: a third resolver, one that resolves to a lower quality m4a. Those are still available, and it's better than nothing.

To fix this as quickly as possible, make sure to:

• Download the new version v2.2.0 from github
  
• Change the resolver to m4a in the addon settings (or leave it on "auto")
  

Or you can wait for the plugin to update in kodi itself.
I somehow managed to create a pull request on the kodi repository, fingers crossed.
