 I flushed DNS cache on my LMS machine early this morning and Pandora has

 Give it a try to see if will help.  Before Pandora would not stay
 connected for more than 3-4 tracks, after over 8 hours no disconnects.

I have been stream Pandora for over twelve hours now.  No problems.  I
did flush the DNS cache last night but due to the most recent posts I'm
not sure if that had any effect.

 Same issue here.  I cannot play Pandora for very long.  Sometimes a few
 songs, other times almost an hour.  Rarely can I play as long as an hour
 though.  I've been testing this issue for a while now, as this is a
 critical issue for me.  Here's what I've gathered so far:
 
 - The issue occurs at the end of a song.  So, when a song ends, the next
 one doesn't start playing.
 - The issue is independent of the player type, as it happens on Duet,
 Touch, SoftSqueeze, and SqueezePlay.
 - Pandora continues to stream on pandora.com and via Sonos.  In other
 words, it seems to be related only to Squeezebox and Pandora.  Something
 must have change on the Pandora side that doesn't play nice with how
 Squeezebox uses it.
 - This has been happening for at least few weeks now, although I'm not
 sure exactly when it started.
 - Independent of the station, as I've tried many.
 - The Squeezebox players don't fail/stop at the same time.  In other
 words, if I have many players playing different Pandora stations at the
 same time, they all will stop playing at different times, independent of
 the other.
 - Tested on multiple different networks to rule out networking issue.
 - I have a paid Pandora account btw.
 
 Also, I've noticed that the skip track button doesn't work anymore (or
 at least not reliably).  Sometimes it works, sometimes it's really slow
 to get to the next song; sometimes I see Fetching track details... for
 a while; I've also seen Unable to retrieve next track, press PLAY to
 tray again.
 
 Help!  This is a critical, critical issue!
 
 Thanks.

What you describe above is exactly my experience.  I recently had an
update to the Pandora App for my Android.  Could it be Logitech needs to
match any changes in the service with an update on their end? I see this
as a fair test of their commitment to the Squeezebox.

I'm off to Logitech tech support!

I have been using the live input plugin to stream a Pandora feed from a
desktop across the Squeezebox network.  For remote control I'm using
Team Viewer to control the Pandora Desktop App from my tablet.  While
not the most elegant solution, it works!!!

BTW thanks Clixby for your work!

[slim] Pandora Streaming problems

2012-12-17 Thread MTU

Since the weekend I have been having issues keeping Pandora streaming on
my squeezeboxen. After about an hour I receive the message the system
cannot receive the info for the next track and all my devices either
display PANDORA_  or go into standby.
As a test I opened Pandora on my tablet and it ran flawlessly for ~four
hours.  
I have not knowingly upgraded/changed any system settings.  I have
tried cycling the power on my cable modem and router and rebooting LMS;
no change.
System specs:
SB Touch
Three SB Booms
Windows 7 on Intel i7
LMS 7.7.2 -r33893 (installed 3/14/12)
D-Link DIR-655 ROUTER

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Mike U.
