does vagalume still work-keep getting an error message "invalid radio url.....

my last fm subscription is fine when i go to the last fm website

On the N900, Vagalume doesn't work for Last.fm; it's libre.fm only.

It's in the FAQs. Last.fm doesn't allow streaming to mobile phones.

Is there any way to add this manually?

Can't I just add the Last.fm data to the N900 version?

Since Vagalume is free software, there's no way to prevent you from doing that, but note that you might be violating the Last.fm terms of service. The Vagalume team takes no responsibility for that.

If you really want to do that, please don't use the Last.fm API key that comes with Vagalume. That API key is necessary to identify the client and you might be harming legitimate Last.fm users if you violate the terms of service using the Vagalume API key. Get a free key here.

You just need to create/download a file like this:

http://pastebin.com/f49509cfd

but with a valid Last.fm API key ( http://www.last.fm/api/account ), and then import it from Vagalume.

What?! I don't understand any of what you said. All I want to do is stream some music. I have a Libre.fm and last.fm account. Why won't it accept my login and just play? And if I need a file to play it, why doesn't the app retieve it for me? I don't even see any place to download this file. Since the file is needed, why not give instructions on how to get it, then import it into the N900? Or put "for rocket scientists only" in the details...

as far as i understand it, it's not about "a file" you would need to download. the problem is the API-key within this file. the API-key doesn't identify you as a user, it identifies the developer who wrote the application.

because accessing last.fm from your N900 violates their terms of use, the author of the application asks you not to change vagalume in a way so that it could access last.fm. doing so will result in last.fm banning his key... and all vagalume versions that run on real tablets and can still access last.fm.

so the proper way to do it is apply for your own API-key, modify vagalume and wait till you get banned.

this is what i understood. could still be wrong, but at least it's a good story. ;)

That's correct, thanks for summarizing it.

(and also note that Vagalume does not only run on Internet Tablets, it works on any GNU/Linux distribution -Debian, Ubuntu, etc.- and it is used by many people who haven't ever touched a Nokia Internet Tablet)

The service doesn't change, read the original announcement here:

http://blog.last.fm/2009/03/24/lastfm-radio-announcement

In order to keep providing the best radio service on the web, we need to ask our listeners from countries other than USA, UK and Germany to subscribe for €3.00 per month

http://www.last.fm/group/Last.fm+Web+Services/forum/21604/_/517212/_/8966064

Only subscribers will be allowed to stream using API applications unless you negotiate a separate deal with us - we need to get the money to cover royalties.

The funny thing here is that, if what you say is correct, applications using the old API (e.g. Vagalume 0.7.1) still work even if you don't have a subscription. An that's a shame. I spent a lot of time adapting Vagalume to use the new API.

Alberto, it is true, version 0.7 worked fine. As soon as I installed version 0.8 it started giving me the URL error message. Maybe your team will find a bug and give us an update.

Frank Banul

12-15-2009, 10:27 AM

I don't think there is a bug in 0.8. It's just that last.fm hasn't turned off the old API. If and when they do, only 0.8 will work if and only if you provide a key.

Setting old_streaming_api to 1 does, indeed, get me accessing Last.FM - without being a subscriber - in exactly the way that Vagalume on my N810 does.

Yes, don't upgrade if your old version works. I need to downgrade back to the 7.1 version for it to work again. It doesn't make sense at all. All I want is to listen to the music for free. I don't care about all the other functions.

Those who got LastFM working: did you insert a valid api key/secret that you applied for? I ask since Libre.fm works fine for my 8.1 install but I get a "Network connection error". I took the XML snipped posted earlier and modified it by only changing the old_streaming_api entry.

I tried downloading the XML file and changing old_streaming_api to 1 with 0.8.1 on an N900 (I figure that over WiFi would not violate the terms of last.fm), and I get a network error. This is with no key. I was hoping that this version would fall back to the working API. Is that not the case?

Finally I got it all to work! It took a bit of digging but now my n900 is delivering candy to my ears.

I had to download from extras-devel which was not clear from the start. Once I had that enabled I was way on my way.

I was having issues earlier which I managed to resolve through taking a peep at the traffic going to/from my phone using a laptop w/ Wireshark and a Monitor-mode-friendly wifi card (iwl3945). Turned out I was using a bad keypair (I'd screwed things up in editing it a few times, unscrewed things by grabbing the pertinent part of the example file listed here (http://gitorious.org/vagalume/vagalume/blobs/raw/vagalume-0.8/data/servers.xml.in))

Do you have such a setup at your disposal? If not, you may be able to get the same results using the deb-chroot+installing wireshark. If you're unfamiliar with the above, I (and others I'm sure) can gently guide you in the right direction.

It would be good if the app defaults to “my library” and therefore starts playing music as soon as the play key is selected. Presently when I press the play key I get a “no more content to play” message.

It defaults to playing the last selected station, so if you e.g. are listening to your neighbourhood, close Vagalume and open it again, pressing 'play' will play that same station.

I think that's a good feature, and it's working fine for me here.

It never works like it should for me. I have an active Last.fm subscription and I live in California, USA. Maybe a year ago it worked as it does for others, but it changed with a software update.

Are you a Last.fm subscriber? I think you shouldn't have had any problems with 0.8 if you were a subscriber.

The thing goes more or less like this:

There are two radio APIs in Last.fm: the old one (unsupported by Last.fm and subject to disappear at any time) and the new one (http://www.last.fm/api).
Starting from v0.8, Vagalume uses the new one. If you're not a subscriber, it won't work. However, it appears that in some countries (including the USA) the old API does work even if you don't pay a subscription.
Vagalume 0.8.1 falls back to the old API in case the new one doesn't work, for non-subscribers in those lucky countries.

About the default radio station problem:

In both APIs, Last.fm provides two separate methods to choose a radio station (http://www.last.fm/api/show?service=160) and to obtain a playlist (http://www.last.fm/api/show?service=256).
If you only press play, Vagalume will just request a new playlist. It will not choose any station for you.
That makes Last.fm send a playlist of the last chosen station.
The problem is that it doesn't seem to work for everyone. I don't know if it depends on the country, the API or what. But I remember having always used that feature, even with the old API.
So the solution would be to select a default station in that case.

Den in USA

Can that default be "My Library" and will you give us an update to test?

Also, a good adition would be an integration with eSpeak to tell the name of the song and band that is playin' (or will start to play).

What do you guys thinks?

EDIT: the shortcuts apply to n810 and n900, like pressing the > key to go to next track, L to love track and so on...

After flashing my N800, when I try to reinstall, it says I am missing libhildondesktop0, libhildonfm2 and libhildonwm0. Where can I find these files for down loading?

What flash version did you use?

There's Ctrl+L to love, Ctrl+B to ban, etc., take a look at the menus

It doesn't work here (n900).
BTW, my idea is to provide access to the functions without needing to look at the phone, so its great to use when it's dark, or at car.
For the same reason I told about the eSpeak extension!

My bad, I uploaded a package for Fremantle. I'll try to upload one for Diablo today.

I've just uploaded a package compiled for chinook:

https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8975

It should work in diablo as well. Tell me if it's ok and I'll prepare a new release with this patch.

Thanks!

Ah, you're right! With the introduction of the Maemo 5 menus we lost the keyboard shortcuts. Can you please file a bug about that?

Alberto, version 0.8.3-1chinook2 works great on my N800. Is version 0.8.3-1diablo2 identical and can it replace my "chinook" install?

I'll try to make a new official release soon, you should see the update icon in your device automatically when it's ready.

Alberto Garcia, I saw at bugzilla that you corrected the shortcuts for n900, did you put my suggestions as shortcuts too?

It was:
Skip song: right arrow
Stop: left arrow
Love track: up arrow (like thumbs up ;))
Ban track: down arrow (like thumbs down ;))

Looking for the release ;)

I find them a bit confusing to be honest... but you can always recompile Vagalume if you really want to use them.

Thanks for your comments anyway :)

Why do you think that's confusing?
I mean, when you love a song you do thumbs up (up arrow from keyboard), when you hate and want to ban it, you do thumbs down (down arrow), when you want to skip, right arrow, stop, left arrow...

That's a default behaviour...

The main reason I want it is that I mostly use Vagalume at sleep or doing other tasks. Having single keys to do what I need is pratical, since I'll not have to look at the screen...
Just touch the buttons, as I know where they're...

The eSpeak suggestion is because you'll hear a lot of songs you don't know, so it's, again, pratical to know the song without the need of looking at the display.

But you're the boss :)

Thanks!

I am loving the latest version 0.8.4. I now just hit “play” button and I am good to go!

vagalume has stopped working for me on maemo and easy debian.. i get 'connection error' on maemo and on easy debian it :connects, displays song info and image, but then 'squeaks'!

i've installed the codecs to play 720p, so if nobody else is having a problem, they'll be the main suspect.

Addison

12-12-2011, 12:37 PM

I've been using Vagalume (Diablo version) almost every day, including today.

No issues at all on this end and I've never installed any additional codecs.

For me, it has always worked straight out of the box.

marbleuser

12-12-2011, 01:14 PM

ok, i'll report this over at the 720p codec thread..

Addison

12-12-2011, 03:48 PM

Sorry for asking but what does 720p have to do with a music app?

marbleuser

12-13-2011, 12:47 AM

it's a rewrite of some of the central gstreamer libraries. but as the concentration was on video playback, maybe the audio bits didn't get as much attention. nobody knows for sure at the moment. pity , as i like libre.fm

does this app works anymore (without any premium account at least)?

Addison

03-23-2012, 01:35 AM

Yeah, it still works great. :)

Joseph9560

03-25-2012, 01:01 AM

I always get "No more content to play"
Can you share the server file you are using, just in case that's what is causing problem.

Addison

03-25-2012, 01:20 AM

I use Last.fm.

In the menu, Play Radio --> Artist similar to..., and then type in a band's name.

I use Last.fm.

In the menu, Play Radio --> Artist similar to..., and then type in a band's name.

It says the same

"No more content to play"

Btw I can't select Last.fm from preferences. Under the Services, I can only select Libre.fm. And I don't seem to be able to play anything.

Addison

03-25-2012, 01:34 AM

Okay.

Give me a minute and I'll check on this for you. :)

Addison

03-25-2012, 01:41 AM

So you're not seeing anything like this to choose from?

I'm not sure.

Perhaps you can "check for updates" in your application catalog.

Maybe you have an outdated version.

Joseph9560

03-25-2012, 01:54 AM

Oh, you are using pc version? I was talking about one in maemo. If I am not wrong, Last.fm has some terms that one can't use it in mobile anymore (without paying at least). And the service drop down only has Libre.fm which doesn't seems to be working.

Addison

03-25-2012, 01:58 AM

I'm using an older N800 tablet running on Maemo 4.

And I've never paid for any services with Last.fm.

I'm more than happy with what they offer for free. :)

I really don't know why it's not working for you.

Heck, it still works on my old, first gen Xbox and I use it every day. :)

Hey Joseph.

Try going here for starters:

Do you get something that looks like this?

No vagalume is not shown, LastGo and Scrobbler are shown but they won't let me play anything without premium account.
