Deezer

Just as long as the quality of paid Deezer music is acceptable.

did some searches on their web interface (for relatively obscure stuff) - they seem to be relatively well covered (fyi: I go for Bill Laswell, then Eraldo Bernocchi then Toshinori Kondo, then delve into japanese freak acts...then more obscure stuff). Response was acceptable. So far so quite good.

Ok, but I meant the quality of their streams.

[gbruzzo]

Ok, that I do not know. As for "good" I assume you mean at least 192kbps?

Deezer is 128k MP3.

Is it possible to implement Smartradio via SC separately from Music-on-demand?

Smartradio operates under a different rights protocol, and offers access to music where Deezer doesn't have the rights to offer songs under Music-on-demand.

[andyg]

I don't follow, Smartradio is already implemented.

Thanks Andy, I just realised how to work it. I hadn't twigged that you need to search for an artist to start the SmartRadio option.

Hello,

I'm a French (in France) owner of the Duet with SC 7.3 .

When I use smart radios with the Duet controller or the SC 7.3 web interface, everything is OK.
Nevertheless, when I browse the radio by theme (like Jazz or Chanson Française), with the SC 7.3 Web interface, it works (else some icons that are missing) but with the Duet Controler it doesn't.

Is it a bug ?

I've found 'smart' radio to be anything but smart!
It was playing the wrong tracks (title and actual song not matching) and then going off at oddball-odd angles. E.g. Zappa-Queen-Bowie-Queen???
Will try the web inerface, guesd the nokia skin doesn't support it fully.
