As an aside, is there any way to shut off or dim the screen completely while this is running? I imagine that's a pretty good battery drainer having the screen somewhat lit up. If it's something implementable, that'd be awesome.

Great app btw!

This is something I plan on implementing soon. Combined with the screen staying on and streaming live data this thing can drain a battery real quick.

I'm SUPER excited about this app - looks very cool. I got the channels to load once but the stations would not play. I closed it and restarted and the channels wouldnt load. I unistalled/reinstalled and the channels still wont load. Any thoughts? Have the mogul running 6.1. Thanks in advance!!!

Disabling the proxy means media player will stream directly from Sirius. I'd like to know what happens. You will not get song information if the proxy is disabled, but if it works then I know your problem is with my proxy somewhere.

Installed, and turned off proxy. I get the "no song info available" message... but no sound through the external speaker. If it's only pointing to the mini-jack on the phone, my adapter is in the car so I can't test for sound right now. I can try that on the way home.

The good news for me is that it doesn't appear to be a proxy issue, which could have been a pain in the arse to figure out. The bad news is that we are now doing a very simple task in that we're getting the stream URI from Sirius and passing it along to the Windows Media Player and it's not working. Once I hand that stream off to the media player it's out of my hands.

What we now have to do is determine why Windows Media Player is failing to stream this music. I will go back and look at your log again to see if there is something else that I'm missing.

You should do the following:

1. Reset your phone if you haven't already done it
2. Verify that you phone sound is turned on and all the way up by playing some ringtones or something
3. Verify that you are able to stream audio to your Windows Media Player without C-ApiSRO.
4. If you are technically able to do so, install a packet sniffer and capture network traffic coming/going to your device. It's okay if you are unable to do this one, because it's a pretty involved item. I may have to write a diagnostic utility to accomplish something similar.

Thanks for your patience.

XM or Sirius? Did you reset your phone? I have a handful of users experiencing similar issues. I just haven't found the common item that is causing these issues.

I do not capture passwords in the log file, so your data will be secure. Feel free to look at it before you mail it to me. Once I get that log file I can begin to understand more about why you are having problems.

id love to..... you lose me after the first sentence.

Yes, i power cycled the phone (a couple of times) after the install. Also closed down all other running apps that I could. The only time the channels did load, i was connected via active sync (i didnt sync, but was connected in order to move the cab). Could have thave anything to do with it? using xm

ok - this is odd. i uninstalled and reinstalled again. now i've been able to pull the channel list up twice. I can see the channels but if i click one and then click play, it scrolls through some text real fast ( i think it said something about not autorized) and then it just reloads the channels. Although i can see the channels again, it says "Unable to load channel...") right above channel 2-xmx. Thoughs??

That scrolling of text probably means you are getting disconnected for some odd reason from XM and C-ApiSRO is attempting to log you back in.
Do me a favor and go to XM Radios website and log into their client application. Verify that your account is working correctly straight from the source.

XM Radio: http://xmro.xmradio.com/xstream/index.jsp

You can also create a 3 day temporary account and give that a try. I've heard of some users having difficulties with their accounts while XM is making all of their changes. It's worth a try.

Something tells me that your problem either exists with your subscription or your network settings on your phone. C-ApiSRO is just not smart enough to determine which it is and report back a valid error message. Maybe I should get to work on that.

What's going on here? Now the XM playlist isn't loading for me? Are we in some kind URL war with the XM Online folks? I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling but sheesh, this is kinda annoying.
