Me again... I can confirm that the promised fixes work, thank you. In
particular I have had a couple of drop outs that the plugin has
recovered from , this is a big improvement.

Now... here is I think a tricky little interaction between the web
interface and the remote interface.  I am testing this with softsqueeze
as my SB2s are a long way from the server, but I guess it is likely the
same with SB2

(1) Start softsqueeze (Don't start LastFM yet)
(2) In the web interface, navigate to the LastFM control page for this
player. As its not playing, it should just say "Play LastFM"
(3) In Softsqueeze, start the LastFM plugin. It plays.
(4) Wait. Eventually the track title appears.
(5) Now press UP or DOWN to see the options ... they are all gone! All
you can do is "Press Play to start LastFM", which restarts.
(6) Back at the web interface, navigate somewhere else like Home.
(7) In softsqueeze, restart LastFM. Eventually it plays and you get the
track title.
(8) now UP and DOWN give you the menu items as expected
(9) NOW you can navigate to the web interface LastFM page and you get
all the goodies working fine

To put it another way - it seems that the presence of the web control
page when you start the plugin running messes something up!

On a separate matter, is the plugin supposed to work with two players
at once?  I wouldn't be surprised if this was a bit too hard, but I
just thought I'd ask...  I tried getting it running on Softsqueeze,
then (in the web interface) taking control of an SB2, navigating to the
LastFM page, and pressing play... the SB2 started playing, but
Softsqueeze stopped almost immediately (although it was showing the
track title that ws playing onthe SB2). Pressing play on Softsqueeze
then reversed the process - it played but the SB2 stopped.

Thanks again for the good work.

Regards
Ceejay
