what do you mean by you can't get them to download?
do you mean the music won't play?
do you mean you can't see the pls file?
do you mean the python script doesn't work?
do you mean something else entirely? <

Get some pls files fromhttp://www.shoutcast.com.

Place the pls files on the xbox so you can reach them from the My Music share.

Press A button on the pls file and it will start playing IF your xbox can connect to the internet (via ics/router etc) and that the url in the pls file can be resolved.

Also check firewall so it allows the in and outgoing packets...

What happened to the .sc file support in XBMP? Is that not supported here? I have Shout Scraper running a service to build .sc's and that worked great in XBMP.   <

Use the python script for xbmc that gets the pls files for you.

And why have 2 extensions (sc and pls) if they do the exact same thing?  <

JayDee,

Where is this script? I've searched for "Shoutcast" and "Python" on here and the official forum and came up empty.

I'll gladly move over to whatever the latest method is but I don't see it documented anywhere.  <
