Just a quick update regarding this issue, so people won't have to
stubble too much regarding things that won't be possible to easily
solve.
There are two different problems:
- Access to API over https
- Streaming over https
Access to SoundCloud API over https is related to the 'Enabled peer
verification' change discussed previously in the thread and works out of
the box on some setups while some setups requires https peer
verification to be disabled.
The situation regarding streaming is that SoundCloud are currently
hosting their streams on two different servers:
- Some streams are hosted on a server that supports both http and https
- Some streams are hosted on a server that only supports https
It is possible to get it to work for the streams that are hosted on the
server that supports both http and https, but unfortunately, as I've
understood it, SoundCloud is in a migration phase where they are going
to eventually migrate everything to the server which only supports
https. The analysis done so far of the LMS/Squeezebox source code is
that LMS does not support https for streaming, neither using direct
streaming nor streaming through LMS.
We are currently looking into possible alternative solutions for
ickStream since SoundCloud is one of the services we have integrated in
our beta setup.
