Pandora is a online service that finds similar music to an artist, album or genre that you specify and which creates your unique radio station that plays the related titles. Unfortunatly it´s only available on their website and not in music players like winamp. Until now, that is.

You need the latest version of Winamp (5.21 at the moment). All you need to do is browse to the winamp directory, enter the plugins/ml/ folder and edit the file “ml_online.ini”. Find the line that contains “ElementID7=-1” and replace it with the following lines:

  1. ElementID7=7000
  2. ElementIcon7=11003
  3. ElementSubbed7=1
  4. ElementName7=Pandora
  5. ElementURL7=http://www.pandora.com/?cmd=tunermini
  6. ElementID8=-1

Open Winamp again and head to Media Library/Online Services/Pandora. You will need an account with pandora to make this work. If you have one you are ready to enjoy it in winamp.

My ml_online.ini file does not contain the line “ElementID7=-1″. I have tried adding the other lines but to no avail. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

Martin says:

do you have a different line ending with ElementID ?

which version are you using ?

Works Great!

Thanks for the info..

Found a nice tool that grabs the MP3 files downloaded from Pandora.. tosses them into a folder and renames them with the track info.

This way you can create your own playlists for later.

Hello,
I’m using Winamp 5.52, but there’s not a folder named ml in the Winamp folders on programfiles.

any idea?

Jon says:

For winamp 5.52

Check

C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Winamp\Plugins\ml

Scott says:

Yeah, it’s definitely in
C:\Documents and Settings\myname\Application Data\Winamp\Plugins\ml

not, c:\program files\winamp\ at all

If you have it in c:\program files you are probably using like windows 98, if you’re not on 98 (come on, who is? you are? dumbass.. lol jk) then look in c:\documents and settings\

I had to read 3 tutorials to figure this shit out. Thanks Jon :)
