I just installed this on my pre-eden Win7 XBMC, with a XBMC nightly from October 21 and Aeon Nox's latest Eden version, and it seems to be working fine. Thanks, this is great! Unlike Spotify and the plugin version, I don't need a paid account!
I noticed two weird things:
a) sometimes when I select "Enqueue All" the script just responds with "Sorry." I think this happens when you are looking at a search result / playlist but you have the "up one level" arrow selected? Somehow that seems like a reasonable place to enqueue everything in a list from, but I could be wrong.
b) XBMC's player seems to always get the track length as "infinite" -- maybe this is unavoidable because it's a stream?
c) the script seems to initially report the name & artist correctly to XBMC's "now playing" interface, but after one song the name always shows up as "stream.php" instead of getting the song name. Strangely, the album art still shows up correctly! The next/previous song names also show up correctly.
d) I'm occasionally getting a full XBMC crash while I'm doing nothing but letting a playlist play. It looks like this in the main log:
Is this possibly some sort of incompatibility with something about how ratings are displayed in my skin?
There are a ton of other errors in the log for failing to open a streaming source from Grooveshark -- but these don't actually seem to stop playback, so I'm assuming they're not fatal somehow.
