Hello folks,

I love Amarok, and i love the idea of the last.fm streams. I can't make last.fm work however. I am using Amarok 1.4.2.

When adding the Personal Radio last.fm stream i see this:

amarok: BEGIN: UrlLoader
amarok:  [KDE::ProgressBar::ProgressBar(QWidget*, QLabel*)]
amarok: BEGIN: virtual void ThreadWeaver::Thread::run()
amarok: BEGIN: virtual void UrlLoader::completeJob()
amarok: END__: virtual void UrlLoader::completeJob() - Took 0.00025s
amarok:    [ThreadWeaver] Job completed: UrlLoader. Jobs pending: 0
amarok: END__: UrlLoader - Took 0.18s
amarok:  [virtual KDE::ProgressBar::~ProgressBar()]
amarok: END__: virtual void ThreadWeaver::Thread::run() - Took 0.078s


When pressing play, i see this:
amarok:
amarok: BEGIN: virtual void ThreadWeaver::Thread::run()
amarok:  [ThreadWeaver] Job completed: CurrentTrackJob. Jobs pending: 0
amarok: END__: virtual void ThreadWeaver::Thread::run() - Took 0.91s

When i press play i see "Connecting to stream source for a few moments and then that disappears.

I have tried this with other last.fm streams and seen the same thing.

Other non last.fm streams work fine.

Is there something i need to change in my config files? Last.fm has never worked for me in any version.

I will gladly supply any information necessary to get this working.
Thank you,

To play personal radio, I believe you need to be a paid subscriber to last.fm, but I did think amarok was meant to pop up an error telling you this.

Does it only happen for the one station?

It happends for all last.fm stations. Both those in the playlist (Pop, Japanese etc) and those in the "Playlist..Add Last.fm...Stream" menu items. I have tried them all.

The other non last.fm streams work.  Also, i *am* a paying subscriber.
