pianobar is a console client for the personalized web radio pandora (http://www.pandora.com). - play and manage (create, add more music, delete, rename, ...) your stations - rate played songs and let pandora explain why they have been selected - show upcoming songs/song history - configure keybindings and text output - remote control and eventcmd interface (send tracks to last.fm, for example) - proxy support for listeners outside the USA Included with this SlackBuild is a helper script called pianobarctl that allows the user to remotely control some pianobar functions. To use this a FIFO must first be created by the user: mkfifo ~/.config/pianobar/ctl Please see man pianobar and pianobarctl --help for more information. NOTE: Around the end of last year Pandora changed their certificate, so pianobar will not work unless you give it the new fingerprint. In your pianobar config file (~/.config/pianobar/config) you need to have the following line: tls_fingerprint = 13CC51AC0C31CD96C55015C76914360F7AC41A00 (By the way, an example config file is in /usr/doc/pianobar-$VERSION/) The next time Pandora updates their cert again, you can quickly find the value needed by executing: sh /usr/doc/pianobar-$VERSION/example-scripts/tls_fingerprint.sh
