thin.npr.org doesn't seem to be working again - looks like it's an auth
problem on their end. This stream won't play:

great to have it working again. I use this plugin every day.

That's good - I only use the plugin occassionally so I don't check it
regularly
I posted on another thread that NPR replied to my email and they said
they didn't know how long it would take to fix. Now it's fixed - I
haven't got any email saying they fixed it.

I don't propose using the flash links, but the readily downloadable .mp3
file links. Easily streamsable by any squeezebox.

Two problems with using the graphical page and Flash audio
* Years ago the first version fo the NPR plugin scraped the graphical
pages to get the URLs - it was a real pain to keep up to date as NPR
kept making small changes every few months.
* Flash audio does not seem to have a rtmp URL so it
More thinking out loud.
Looks like the programs that could be scraped this way are:
"*All Things Considered*",
http://www.npr.org/templates/rundowns/rundown.php?prgId=2
"*Morning Edition*",
http://www.npr.org/templates/rundowns/rundown.php?prgId=3
"*Talk of the Nation*",
http://www.npr.org/
I have a hunch that could be what NPR is doing, unfortunately. I like
to listen to Morning Edition later in the day sometimes, and there's no
podcast for that.
I was wondering how hard it would be to scrape () the download
links on the Rundown page? From a scraping perspective, it looks pretty
The problem is not the site is broken but rather the WMA playlists are
not being generated. This may be an accident or it may be that NPR
wants to stop WMA support and only provide full programs via Flash
audio.
The broadcast vs podcast issue relates to rights and not necessarily
relating to t
I'm wagering they don't have an incentive to fix it, unfortunately. I
have started looking for podcast RSS feeds to help stem the loss.

Same here! Looks like it's still broken. I suppose they don't have
people using it with screen readers, or have browsers caught up and the
thin site is a relic?

bpa-
thanks for your response. along with erland's line of plugins, your NPR
plugin is an absolute essential part of my listening experience with my
squeezeboxes.
thanks for making it available to us.

The plugin relies on the text version of NPR - thin.npr.org and this
seems to be broken. This hapopens every so often - I have sent NPR a
message. As thin.npr.org is intended for users with impaired sight, it
usually gets fixed quickly but I suspect NPR may drop it in the future.

i did a quick search and found nothing.
none of my npr program links (which live inside the NPR Plugin) are
working currently.
anyone else out there having this problem?
