For those getting a "400 bad request" error, you can fix it.
On debian like systems (eg. ubuntu, raspbian, mint):
Code:
--------------------
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install IO::Socket::SSL'
sudo service logitechmediaserver restart
--------------------
On RHEL like systems (eg. fedora, centos):
Code:
--------------------
sudo yum -y install openssl-devel
sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install IO::Socket::SSL'
sudo service logitechmediaserver restart
--------------------
Beware, this plugin mostly works but it's certainly not perfect.
* Switching from media server host to media server host means logging
into soundcloud.com and removing the old squeezecloud plugin's client
api key, then reapplying to soundcloud for a new client api key for the
new squeezecloud plugin.
* 'my dashboard' link doesn't work
* searching soundcloud can yield inconsistent and unusual results
* track pictures appear for a moment then disappear
* don't try to add a track to your local mediaserver favourites,
soundcloud's oauth link authorisation is time limited, and it won't play
the next time you try to load it. Use soundcloud to favourite a track
and it will appear in your 'my favourites' list
* Streaming from soundcloud can be jittery sometimes (usually its ok);
there's no way to tweak buffering or caching
