Play last.fm radio is not working
« on: October 27, 2013, 01:36:11 pm »
When i try to use last.fm radio from the player menu.
It opens the window to choose what to listen to.
But when i hit play it says. "This feature is only avaiable to last.fm subscribers"

Anyone else having this issue?

Yes, I get the same error.  I can't get Last.FM to work from the Player menu.  With having to go to the browser and confirm all the time this seems like more trouble than it is worth. 

I just have the basic ad funded account with Last.FM   Anyone know if this stuff works with a paid Last.FM subscription?

Works just fine. You must be a last.fm subscriber for it to work.

Once up and running, you can also include tracks from last.fm in your Play Doctor presets.

In MC, did you set up the account?  Tools/Options/Services.

Are you a Last.fm subscriber?

It's $3 a month, and is required to use the Last.fm radio feature in MC.

OK, I got a subscription and sure enough it works... well, kind of.  The Player menu for Last.FM works and I was able to include tracks from last.fm in a Play Doctor list, but only if I am on the default player zone.  When you run Play Doctor on other "There:" zones the Last.FM authentication notice flashes on the screen but it fails to populate the list with any Last.FM songs. This is also fails when you use the Player-Play Last.FM menu.  It lets you choose a station and then fails with a "Failed to start radio playback" error.

I have to say, the integration with Last.FM is pretty cool.  I just wish that it worked with zones the way that you would expect it to.

OK so this was strange. Last.fm was working on my MC Client. But not the server.

The only way to fix it was to disconnect last.fm from MC services. Then re-add it. I'm not sure how that would be possible.
But it is working after i did that.
