I don't know whether the error I posted above (se previous post) is the same that spacefish and mil are having, but my player also says "conection times out" (while the error message abowe is from the phyton command line (or whatever it's called)). However, I solved my problem by replacing line 451 (lastfmproxy-1.0.3) in the following way:

streamsock.connect((host[0], host[1])) ------> streamsock.connect((host[0], 80))

In my case host[1]=83 before, and for some reason 80 works better. I have no idea why this works, and don't really know what these numbers means at all (could someone explain?), but it's perhaps worth a try to change it.

I'm running 1.1a5 myself and because it's integrated into Windows XP, I don't see any of the error messages, only what's reported to Winamp (5.2). In my case, "Timed Out".

I'm actually sort of dreading switching to the player itself since I have integrated the proxy. The directions for integration are great and I had no problems doing that but there are no directions to switch back to the player so I'll probably be struggling with that if vidarino doesn't get this fixed.

Oh, and the proxy's not working this morning either. I can run the player and skip, love, ban through the proxy window though. I guess that's doable for now. The sound sucks though because it doesn't play through Winamp. I guess I should upgrade the player now that have to use it. Maybe I can use the external player feature there.

My winamp also said "Timed out", and I was also able to run the player through the proxy window, so it absolutely seems like you have the same problem as I used to have.

And, after I changed the line, everything works perfectly. In 1.1a5 it should be line 475, and replace like this (and then restart main.py)

streamsock.connect((host[0], host[1])) ------> streamsock.connect((host[0], 80))

If it doesen't solve your problem, just undo the edit in line 475.

Noooooo! It's happening again. /cry :'(

Edit: Phew. Was just a hiccup after switching stations apparently (from recommended). Working fine now after playing a cd and coming back.

Hmmm... all of a sudden, the proxy stopped working mid-song. Winamp just stopped playing. The player works but the proxy doesn't now. Works most of the time is good but dang, I wish this was fixed once and for all. :/

Playing hide and seek

I tracked down the source of the port 83, and it's last.fm itself that is reporting that port. It's either a bug somewhere or a crashed streamer.

Pretty disappointed. I have a meeting to go to this morning and if it's not fixed, I think I'll try reverting oding's edit.

Not really sure how this applies. Anyone else having problems now?

I also got the "connection refused/connection time out" problem back yesterday, so I tried to edit host[0] in the same way as I did to host[1], so before it was

host[0]="streamer2.last.fm" and host[1]=83

And when I change to

host[0]="streamer1.last.fm" and host[1]=80

it works. So now I added the lines

host[0] = "streamer1.last.fm"
host[1] = 80

just before the line 'streamsock.connect((host[0], host[1]))' in line 475 or 451 depending on the version. But, of course I've no ide how long this will work either. It would have been nice if someone with some more insight in the program, perhaps vidarino, could try to explain why one have to to do this changes in the host[0] and host[1].

This applies to the problem because we now know that the problem is not in the lastfmproxy, but in the data that last.fm returns to the client or in a service within last.fm. This means that there is no point in patching the client to get around this.

Oh, that sounds disappointing, since I doubt last.fm will do anything anything to accommodate us proxy users. I mean, the stream still plays in the player so what's there to fix? :(

Well, since it appears that the player usually gets redirected to streamer1 anyway, it might be that there is a problem in streamer2. I'm not sure though.

I mentioned this in IRC and someone said that they were going to mention this to someone else.. Or something (i was in a hurry). I'll check back in IRC later today.

Ok, got it!

change line 11 in lastfm.py to read:
self.host = "ws.audioscrobbler.com"

instead of:
self.host = "wsdev.audioscrobbler.com"

the official player requests the metadata from ws.audioscrobbler.com while the proxy defaults to wsdev.audioscrobbler.com, this is what is causing the breakage. apparently wsdev is currently returning some testing data.

So it turns out lastfmproxy was to blame after all, but so was last.fm ;)

EDIT: fixed the line number and a typo, never do anything in a hurry.

Seems to be working although I'm getting a lot of buffering in the stream. Perhaps that's just a dodgy streaming server and not related to the proxy fix.

Great to see that the mystery has been solved! I'll fix and release a new version shortly. Since has been the only bug worth mentioning in quite some time, I'm going to dub it 1.1 final and we'll see how it goes. :)

Big thanks to the testers and investigators.
