lastfm on latest amarok stopped working
Hi,
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Lastfm no longer works after the latest amarok update.

What feature does not work? I just tried it: both dynamic playlists as well as loving tracks works for me. (I´m using x86_64).

Is your problem related to this thread? --> http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=98205
Or is your last.fm-subscription expired?

Whatever I try from lastfm, the songs just alternate very fast without actually playing. I hope this makes some sense. For example, song A appears and the lyrics start downloading, but then immediately the song changes to song B, this changes to song C, and so on. Looks like an endless loop.
BTW, my subscription is fine, it is automatically renewed every month.

Re: lastfm on latest amarok stopped working
Are you able to use any stream like a stream from "cool streams"?

Yes, other radio streams work fine. Funny thing is that I have this problem only on my laptop and not on my desktop (exact same arch installations...).

Re: lastfm on latest amarok stopped working
I too had this problem.
I got it working by switching the Phonon backend from gstreamer to xine.
( in KDE: System Settings > Multimedia > tab Backend )
