Pichet Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Hi ColdFusion, Sorry, i have no specific comments, suggestions or bug reports to make but i do have some feedback to share, nonetheless. I downloaded those two files: http://superb-west.dl.sourceforge.net/sour....beta.7.4.0.zip (3953119 Bytes) http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sour...F6.jar.only.zip (144521 Bytes) Then i extracted 'pandora.beta.7.4.0.zip' to a new (fresh) 'pandora.beta.7.4.0' directory, unzipped 'pandora.7.4.0.CF6.jar.only.zip' and overwrote the 'default.properties'. I also edited 'pandora.bat' as shown here to compensate for the Flash v9 trap: @echo off If () == (%1) start javaw -jar pandora.jar 8085 If Not () == (%1) start javaw -jar pandora.jar %1 C: CD CD "Program Files" CD "Mozilla Firefox" Echo. Echo Ready to load `FireFox + Pandora'! Echo. Echo Press [Ctrl]+[C] to abort... Pause If () == (%1) start firefox http://www.pandora.com/ If Not () == (%1) start firefox http://www.pandora.com/ Echo. Echo. Echo Ready to load `FireFox + Pandora's Jar'! Echo. Echo Press [Ctrl]+[C] to abort... Pause If () == (%1) start firefox http://localhost:8085 If Not () == (%1) start firefox http://localhost:%1 The execution of 'pandora.bat' opens the Pandora's Jar JAVA applet, pressing [Enter] starts a regular Pandora player in FireFox and the second tap opens Pandora's Jar HTML interface. At first, Pandora's Jar displays "Waiting (capture results)."/"Waiting (last.fm)." but it will change to "MP3 ripping set to manual - Click the [Grab It] button..." after a while... Two tests out of three worked: i played the song from the http://www.pandora.com/ page and capture it from the http://localhost:8085/ one. I verified the MP3 fields using WinAmp and the Title and Artist information was OKay, the Comment field would still read as "ripped by [PaNDoRas jAR] your source for listening pleasure", though. Any saved item could be found in a sub-directory similar to: mp3UNKNOWN STATION{The band's name}{The album's name} Strangely enough, the genuine Pandora player won't complain about the Flash version while it says "In order to use Pandora, we request...", etc. when it connects via the Pandora's Jar JAVA applet page... The "Waiting..." messages which are shown before i can try the [Grab It] button now last forever, the 3rd experiment was my last and cleaning up the tmp directory didn't fix it. That's all the feed-back i got. This was a nice experiment, in any case!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFusion Posted January 13, 2007 Author Share Posted January 13, 2007 the Comment fieldwould still read as "ripped by [PaNDoRas jAR] your source for listening pleasure", though. Any saved item could be found in a sub-directory similar to: mp3UNKNOWN STATION{The band's name}{The album's name} What are you trying to say? what's the problem with the comment? Strangely enough, the genuine Pandora player won'tcomplain about the Flash version while it says "In order to use Pandora, we request...", etc. when it connects via the Pandora's Jar JAVA applet page... That's not strange at all. pandora requests a flash upgrade only if it's not running in the topmost frame. The "Waiting..." messages which are shown before ican try the [Grab It] button now last forever, the 3rd experiment was my last and cleaning up the tmp directory didn't fix it. That's all the feed-back i got. Which "waiting" messages? there are two that I can think of, one relates to the file not being fully downloaded, the other to not having pandora's jar loaded before pandora.com. I suggest using one of the following solutions: 1) the greasemonkey solution. 2) the new solution by Razor512. (http://www.hak5.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=55620#55620) 3) the noscript solution. the "open in a new tab" seems to stop working after a refresh, or after a few songs, I don't know, haven't tried it much.

Pichet Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Hi ColdFusion, I'm stating a fact in my remark about your Comment field, no more no less. About the Razor512 patch, i must write that it works with no genuine Pandora window at all now that i edited (in Unix style) my 'pluginreg.dat' file: e.g. LFs instead of CR-LFs; at least until the page refreshes, after 30 songs.

th80 Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I get this error code: MP3 tagged and saved: G:pandoramp3UNKNOWN STATIONR.E.M. - Nightswimming.mp3HTTP/1.0 500 Internal server.Server Error Date: Thu Jan 18 11:41:45 CET 2007 Content-Type: text/html Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate, max-age=-1 server.Server: Pandora's Jar Connection: close unable to rip MP3 null Although it says "unable to rip" the file is saved. But why it still don't get the station name? I thought since CF6 it would work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFusion Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 have you entered your pandora's user in the appropriate box in the settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th80 Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 have you entered your pandora's user in the appropriate box in the settings? No. I take that out for minimizing errors :-) (since the flash problems) Now it works, thank u! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pichet Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Hi ColdFusion, I've given CF7 a try. The Track #, Title, Artist, Album, Year and Genre fields are perfect including the Comment one (i edited comment.override.enabled and comment.override.text in 'default.properties') when the "band bio" item is supported thru Last.FM and CDDB, apparently... Now i can be a pig eating like a gourmet! I'm sorry to only offer feedback. :!: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dapaintballer331 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 does "PortableFirefox" have its own cache? If so that may be a way for parallel ripping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapaintballer331 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I as well as a few others, were using pandoras jar, while pandora released the update. I deleted my %temp% folders contents, firefox cache, and all pandora file except /mp3 pandoras jar, with cf7 always says "Initing mp3 rip..." What do we need to do it to get it to work?

paddyinwales Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 with cf7 always says "Initing mp3 rip..."What do we need to do it to get it to work? Wait for one of the experts here, maybe ColdFusion, to work out how Pandora changed a few days ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
