Standalone Pandora Client

[ZigZagJoe]

they've went and updated something - it's dieing with <methodResponse><fault><value><struct><member><name>faultString</name><value>org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcException: 000.000.000.000|0|INCOMPATIBLE_VERSION|Pandora does not support your client version.</value></member><member><name>faultCode</name><value><int>1</int></value></member></struct></value></fault></methodResponse>

OKAY, fixed. Re-download at the normal link and it will work fine.

I came across this a few weeks ago and I have got to say, I am really liking the progress you've made. Keep up the good work.

I do however come tonight to report a bug. Since you've updated due to pandora updating I'm getting an error

Looks like maybe it's referencing something on your machine on drive "E"? I don't know. I'm a PC tech not a programmer.

No, that is where it died in the source (paths from my comp, yes). In this case, it told me exactly what was wrong (something that was partially written was not commented out). Re-download and it will be fixed.

The line in question was an if that was checking if a log file was too big... except there was nothing after it except the settings init line, so settings would not get inited in addition to the exception thrown by the IF.

(this is what the PDB files in the download are for - if something dies, it can tell me exactly where it died).

re-downloaded @ time 6:09pm EST and again same errors ocur maybe it dident replace the old download file?

quick edit: srry if i sound kinda d*ckish but i havent been to sleep in nearly 24 hrs ... heading to bed as we speak!

Works perfectly now! Thanks a lot. You're a friggin' genious.

BE sure you are re-downloading, and the file is actually getting replaced. date should be 10/29 4:21pm (CST)

I'm using Saver 1.1 Beta B beta, but now when a song is sniffed... save it immediatly is my only option, wait for approval is grayed out, turbo mode has a red x through it, ( I have used turbo in the past but since turned it off) How do I get it back to "wait for approval" ? thanks. P.

Red x simply means it's turned off.

Uh, re download it to allow waiting again... accidentally uncommented something that should not be uncommented.

[ZigZagJoe]

Slight bump, aside from the various updates (noted in saver2's changelog) the OP has been updated to include a link to a standalone executable: it only requires mplayer.exe to function (no dlls). It can download mplayer if need be.

Pandora.exe has no facility for timeshifting, if you wish to do so, you will need to download+install saver2, launch sproxy, and choose pandora client there.

Minimode added.

[xbjim]

Great app!

I hate to ask but I'm not sure if you're taking any feature requests.. but in case you are, would it be possible to scroll the artist - title in the application title? Where it now shows the station name? An option for that would be awesome, thanks!

I've tried, but end up with just an empty title (it's a bit odd, really). You might try shade mode (double click the top of the window, where it says Pandora - station name) combined with on top (click the little pin icon so it faces downwards)

[xbjim]

I didn't even know that existed but it works perfectly and even better than what i was asking since now i can thumb up/down songs.

Thanks again for doing such a great job!

Thank you and AWESOME app.

[ZigZagJoe]

Major client update. Client is now packaged in an installer to make it easier to installer + put tor as well.

Listening outside the US just got a bit easier (again) - Tor has been changed to tortunnel in the installer.

It's not quite the same thing as tor - instead of going for maximum anonymity it goes for speed. The net result that the speed will be greatly increased due to only going one hop through tor, and it makes setup easier (and more reliable). However, the tortunnel option now is not compatable with tor as it configures sproxy for tortunnel's socks5 interface as opposed to tor's socks4a. If one wants to use vanilla tor, that is still an option; just delete tortunnel.exe and put tor.exe back in the folder. (and configure SP ofc)

On top of that, the pandora client is now SOCKS-aware, so it can use tor/tortunnel/etc by itself. Configure proxy settings on menu->config->proxy.

Added a welcome screen, and mini-tutorial as well. Coincidentally, logging in as anonymous is now supported.

The pandora client is now packaged in an installer to ease setup.

The old auto-launch tor is available at http://zzj.itf-inc.com/s2/PAtor.zip

The new tor tunnel pack is available at http://zzj.itf-inc.com/s2/PAtt.zip

Client: Version incremented to 1.4

Client: Added -tor and -tortunnel args to standalone for easy setup

Client: Added welcome screen + tooltip tutorial

Client: Music search updates significantly faster visually

Client: Fading now off by default

Client: Fading out delay on hover increased somewhat

Client: Can now use Tor/tortunnel without SProxy (httpwebrequest removed)

Client: Can now log in anonymously and save over sessions

Client: Fix for crash while searching for music

Client: Fixed being able to launch multiple station mgmt windows

Client: Fixed register dialog not closing when close button hit

Client: Fixed windows being hidden when on top was enabled

Client: Fixed a few typos in various strings

Client: Fixed a case where the client would spam syncs when they failed to connect

Client: Fixed the mplayer log not being released properly.

Known Bugs:

The station window can become "locked" waiting on an RPC; unknown cause.

I'm going to try and reinstall .NET ...

Ok, I got pandora to load again by removing everything in ~/.wine/, and started over, first installing pandora(wine PandoraSetup.exe), then .net (sh winetricks corefonts dotnet20) ... and executing it in a terminal with the command:

env WINEPREFIX="/home/me/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Pandora\Pandora.exe"

....

and it still says "Bad user and/or pass" when i login.

I tried creating a new account, and it says: "Failed to execute XMLRPC"

If it matters, I have 8 stations, and am a Pandora ONE user.

I managed to login "anonymously" but can't add any stations, am trying to add a shared station. Ok, I added a "shared" station, by it's url (one of my stations) and the music sounds horrible. It's staticy and jerky. Also, a bunch of blue boxes keep popping up and stealing my focus, as I try and write this.

Interesting, I tried to move it to different workspace and I think it crashed? -- Well the window disappeared, and the 'music' stopped, but both the Pandora.exe and mplayer.exe processes are running. I've attached the standard output (panlog1.txt) and the standard error output (panlog2.txt) of this last run. I also seem to have a pclient.log, mplayer.log, and install.log. In pclient.log i see the line "LinuxHacks defaulting to False" .. although I checked the box for wine compatibility during install.

This XMLRPC part seems to be important:

BTW: I'm running "Linux version 2.6.31-19-generic (buildd@palmer) (gcc version 4.4.1 (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu8) ) #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 01:26:53 UTC 2010" on a laptop.

I think I may have deleted the bit which disabled SSL when the hacks mode is on - for some reason, SSL is nonfunctional on wine. I'll check in a bit; I haven't done a comparability check recently.

The blue boxes are supposed to be some sort of mini-tutorial, but it (they) shouldn't be stealing focus.

Hmm, you're right, it shouldn't be turning LinuxHacks off. Testing it here, it did work fine (installer turned it on properly). Wonder if the process died or something on linux. Will need to check.

The tricky bit here is the playback: there really isn't an easy way to fix that. I may fiddle about and see if I can hack it to use native pipes (as opposed to the windows pipe) but not really confident about it.

Okay, tested on os x (my usual testbed for wine). It looks like linux hacks did not get turned on for some reason, which is odd; the install log says the same. To fix this either edit the config or launch with -wine. Had the boxes show up, but they weren't stealing focus. Might be an X thing.

For sound: run winecfg, and try changing the sound subsystem in there.

has anyone looked into being able to stream pandora onto the xbox 360?

if its to hard or a lot of working of finding and broadcasting straight to the xbox, could you send the audio through tversity which accepts shoutcast urls?

i don't think tversity or any other program out there is able to stream pandora onto the xbox. you would lose the ability to skip/downvote songs but i think most would take that as a reasonable trade off just to have it streaming while being able to play video games with the music in the background.

To use this for that end, you'd need to use one of those programs which records from your sound card. A quick google turns up http://www.sdstechnologies.com/

The concept in itself is interesting, i might play around with making a shoutcast/icecast emulation for pandora (a client which only outputs over shoutcast) for the lols.

[justchat_1]

hey there,

I was hoping to port this to use directshow instead of mplayer...is source available?

hey there,

-justin

no, the source isn't available atm.

i'm actually working to that end right now - i have it mostly working, but it's still a little glitchy. Sound output under windows is horrid :|

if you need help i have a working example.....directshow really isn't bad at all once your familiar with whats what. Just use directshowlib and its like 5mins of work to do anything you can think of (although getting it to start playing while the rest of the stream is downloading can be a b****).

My second request would be if not in source code form would you consider making a library version available? I have an open source project that could really use pandora support and would even consider having it use a library and linking to you-if that would be ok.
