SqueezeScrobbler 1.2.6 - LastFM working again!

[James]

Hi all,
pleased to announce a new version of SqueezeScrobbler that restores the LastFM radio functionality (for now at least).
Thanks to David Sibai who pointed out what the problem was.

Please note that I have found 'direct streaming' to your player needs to be disabled for the plugin to work. I do not know why this is, as I don't think it was required before?

The new version can be downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/projects/slimscrobbler/files/ and I have updated the repository at http://slimscrobbler.sourceforge.net/repository.xml so you can do the update through the plugin manager.

jansen2810,
Settings->Player->Audio->"MP3 Streaming Method" should be set to
Proxied streaming

Thanks, found it! It worked, but only for 3 tracks. My free 30 tracks were used. I tried a new account but I could not connect. Obviously I changed the settings.I suppose the MAC-address of my player was recognized. Anyway it was nice as long as it lasted.

Just updated and made the recommended change to my player settings and all works perfectly again. I now live in New Zealand and only paid for a subscription so that I could continue to stream Last.fm with your plugin so thank you thank you thank you!

Great it works again, let's hope it will for a long time!

and thank you Simon about that trick with the MP3 Streaming, didn't work on my first run on the plugin.

Thank you James for your great plug-in !

happy listening !

Update through the plugin manager doesn't work for me. I did the following:
Advanced-> Extention Downloader. Added your url, and did see the Squeezescrobler 1.2.6 added to the list after pressing apply. But nothing was downloaded...

What did I do wrong? Is it because I had already installed the plugin manually?

Edit: Yes, that was it. First removed the instance I had installed manually, and now the automatic install works.
