SoundCloud Player doesn't work anymore
Since a couple of days the Firefox add-on doesn't communicate with the Soundcloud website anymore, and I have been unable to control my music using the add-on. I'm using Firefox 33.0 on Windows 7.
Perhaps a recent Soundcloud API update/change broke the functionality. I hope this can be fixed.
I am already using v0.7. It does not work. If I click on "Play" nothing happens (I have 5 tabs open with Soundcloud.com opened) Using Windows 8.1 and Firefox 33.0.2
@ScreenDriver @sergey-vlasov Can you look at the 'Tools --> We Developer --> Browser Console' window and see if there are any messages/ errors listed of interest?
BTW, SoundCloud changed its frontpage layout to not include a player anymore, but a only a list of songs like you see in your stream. The player is only available when you're signed in to your account.
@ScreenDriver The add-on searches for a SoundCloud tab and grabs only the first one - otherwise it would start playing in all 5 tabs at the same time.
My web developer console displayes nothing special related to your Soundcloud plugin.
I know that it grabs the first open tab. I only wanted to show that I have more than one tab and it find no one :wink:
PS: I am signed in in my account.
The only message I get being on soundcloud.com
"You like to look under the hood? Why not help us build the engine? http://soundcloud.com/jobs"
Ah forget about my last post. I found it! I had opened another soundcloud tab (I oversight it). I clicked on it so Firefox had to load it first (after a session restore). Now it workes! :+1:
@ScreenDriver well, that's inconvenient if it really looks withing unloaded tabs. I have plenty of them.
@mikedeboer Is it possible to limit to only loaded onces?
@ScreenDriver \o/
@sergey-vlasov I mean the 'Browser Console', not the 'Web Console'. If you don't see that menu options, please go to about:config, search for devtools.chrome.enabled and switch that to true.
@sergey-vlasov I can try to fix checking for loaded tabs only. Can you file a bug for that?
