Version: 1.4.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux There's no automatic entry for "Recommended" last.fm radio. It's easy to add manually if you know how, but an inexperienced user might never find out how. Example lastfm://user/m94mni/recommended/100 It's the station I use all the time...
Ubuntu bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/amarok/+bug/103227
Why would you file an Ubuntu bug for this? Do you expect the Ubuntu packagers will hack this feature into Amarok? Close it. Regarding your idea: I've just tried this radio, and the songs that came up were *totally* unrelated to my musical taste. In fact it was stuff I really dislike, Metal, Rap, etc. I don't see why this was "recommended"; seemed random to me. So I think this is a rather useless addition.
For me and many of my friends the Recommended station is the favourite one. I don't know why it does not function for you, maybe your database of listened songs at last.fm is not big enough, but for many it does function very well. So please add this station.
Well, I can see the point for not adding it specifically for the Ubuntu build, even though it should be a 10-line patch. That's why I've reported it upstream.
Well OK, if you say this station normally works better, maybe we'll give it a try.
Created attachment 22785 [details] Patch to add "Recommended radio" to the lastfm streams
Thanks for the patch dAniel, I hope the Amarok team will accept it.
New string and new feature don't qualify for the 1.4 because it is in feature freeze. Amarok 2 howerver has a completely rewritten last.fm integration and also features the recommended radio (if you have enough recommendations apparently).
