I saw your post elsewhere about needing to add a developers key to the plug-in so that it would be allowed to access the new Shoutcast API.
I happen to have a devID, but I have concerns about allowing it to be used by others. (I really don't know if AOL or *IAA would go after me if someone else used Rhythmbox+radio browser to record a Shoutcast station)

What I'd like to do is manually modify the plug-in as installed on my own system so that at least I can get access to the Shoutcast server lists again. I just don't know how to do that.

I found mention of creating a new gconf key for rhythmbox to access and pass to Shoutcast, but the instructions don't seem to apply to my install, since I have none of the paths listed.

Here's where I found it:


http://code.google.com/p/rhythmbox-shoutcast/issues/attachmentText?id=22&aid=-7640949152184891351&name=shoutcast20-rhthmbox-howto.txt&token=731eafdf20863a4745d8f004230c6686


here is a summary of the instructions on that page


Enter this key into a new gconf key under
/apps/rhythmbox/plugins/shoutcast/apikey (of type string).

The following command should do it:
gconftool-2 -t string --set /apps/rhythmbox/plugins/shoutcast/apikey "your-apikeyhere"


Now; I did find a place to insert an API key in /home/NAME/rhythmbox-shoutcast-2.0.4/src/service/apikeycheck.py , but adding my devID key to the line that reads "api = " and/or the line that reads "apiprivate =" does not seem to do anything, so obviously I'm missing something...

I am using Ubuntu 11.04, Gnome 2.32.1, Rhythmbox 0.13.3 with Radio Browser 2.4-1~natty1

addendum: I reviewed the AOL/Nullsoft license and it contains this little tidbit:

"You may not share, loan, provide, transfer or sublicense your Developer ID to any other person or party."
