Yes, unfortunately playback through the addon is broken right now due to an Rdio API change over the weekend. I'll hopefully get it working again in the next week or so, but unfortunately it's a bit of a tricky change. Will post here when I have some news. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi all, I think I've found a fix for the Rdio playback problem. I've released a new version 1.3.1, please let me know if this fixes the problem for you.

Hi @dallasnights, sorry to hear you're still having problems. Looks like you're still getting the same error so obviously my fix hasn't worked for everyone.

First off, can you double check that you are in fact running version 1.3.1 of the Rdio plugin? Assuming so, can you find open the following file in an editor:

Code:

<xbmc_home>/addons/plugin.audio.rdio/rdioxbmc.py

Then find the line that looks like this:

Code:

'playerName': 'api_429413',

and change it to this:

Code:

'playerName': 'api_18683',

Then try playback again. If it still doesn't work, try changing a few of the numbers in the "api_xxxx" string randomly and trying again.

Let me know how it goes.

ok couple of things

1) It shows 1.30 but keeps saying its updating and still it shows 1.30
Did what you said no luck even with random numbers

Hope you can fix for ATV2 back to where it works again

Thanks

On my end, I can confirm version 1.3.1 works like a charm on aTV 2 with Eden.

By the way - thanks a millions amped for this add-on ... it's a godsend for my setup!

Awesome plugin.

Hmm, very odd seems to be working for some but not others :/

Perhaps it's a regional thing, I do know the Rdio API has some different behaviours based on your location. Will try with a proxy when I get a chance.

@dallasnights, I'm not too sure if it's related, but there seems to be lots of file system permissions errors in your log file (eg: "ERROR: SQL: Attempt to write a readonly database"). They might cause all sorts of weird behaviour (eg: data not saving, plugins not updating, images not caching) so I'd say it's worth trying to fix them. I'd suggest asking over in the ios support forum. Here are a couple of threads that look like they may help:

OK, it's failing for me again now also. Frustrating. Sorry folks, will keep looking into it.

The api_18683 only has 5 digits compared to the 6 of the original api_429413.

Is the new one correct?

[ampedandwired]

Hi Paulpoco, actually as it turns out I don't think fiddling with this number is going to help. "api_429413" should work OK. The problem with playback is something else.

Hi all, I've released v1.3.2 which I'm hoping will fix the playback issues. Rdio seem to have put a bit of extra security on their Flash streaming API which has made playback through XBMC a bit difficult. I'm unsure if this fix will work for everyone, or how long the fix will work for, but please let me know if it works for you.

It works for me now, thanks a lot.
