Slacker "Artist Station" favorites aren't playable from favorites menu
Last modified: 2009-07-31 10:20:49 UTC
There are (at least) two different ways to add a Slacker "artist station" as a favorite in SC: 1) Slacker->artist search->click the fav icon on your choice 2) Slacker->artist search->click the band name->click the fav icon next to play artist station In both cases, the favorite is added as "http://www.squeezenetwork.com/api/slacker/v1/opml/...". In the favorites menu, there is no "play" icon next the favorite and clicking it navigates into the Slacker menus where I can then play it. For normal Slacker station favorites, they are added as "slacker://stations/..." and there is a play icon which allows it to be directly played as a favorite.
QA to investigate with 7.1 I am unable to reproduce this with 7.0.1 - 19705 I am able to add & play a Slacker station and/or Artist Station no problem. Mine shows up as: http://www.squeezenetwork.com/api/slacker/v1/opml/create?id=2511 I can confirm that there is no Play ICON visible, if you click on it or go right from the player UI, it is playable
(In reply to comment #1) > I can confirm that there is no Play ICON visible, if you click on it or go > right from the player UI, it is playable > Yes. To clarify, my point is that these favorites require 2 clicks (or a right arrow) to be played. This applies to SC, SBC and the player UI. Other normal favorites can be played directly with one click (or press of the play button).
Not sure this is fixable. The favorite you want is the slacker://... one, not the OPML command to create a new station.
