I have been having some real trouble getting Radium to work with my Sirius XM account. I know that the username and password that I am entering is correct because on the computer I can go to the SiriusXm website and log into my account but whenever I try and log into this account from the Radium interface it says that the authentication has failed. Does anyone have any idea as to why I am having this trouble?
