Its been a while since it has worked and I think its time to fix it. Some players would like to have it running so when they feel the need they can turn it on with out having to play songs from there pooter or /gs.

For me, /gs hasnt been working for the past couple of weeks now. I did enjoy FragRadio, and I feel it would be great to have it back. (Although I am pretty sure /gs replaced /radio).

Please bring back the /radio command.

Thats one out of many things that brought me to skial.
 
I dont understand why you cant just put music in winamp or whatever you use and set it to shuffle

so you'd rather listen to some euro trash 15 year old dj play shit music for you instead of just alt tabbing?

Nobody CAN use /radio anymore ever since /gs got implemented.


The /gs command was implemented from a suggestion thread I made about improving the /radio command. I was in a server one day and someone was mic spamming, I asked them why they didn't just use /radio if they wanted to listen to music.

They explained that /radio is TERRIBLE, and I promised to propose a better solution to Bott. I did so, and Rue was the one who came upon the Grooveshark plugin.

I'm saying even BEFORE Grooveshark was implemented, I never saw anyone use /radio. Because it's terribad.

I see. The only problem I have with the /gs command, is that it dsoesn't decide to work for me most of the time. However, if /gs actually worked for me, I would be more inclined to -1 this suggestion. I enjoyed /radio, because I didn't seem to have any problems with it.

About Alt-Tabbing: I often do use a stream from a local radio station, however it sometimes crashes my overlay, or slows down my computer.

I've found that the /gs command can be strange sometimes, I will want to listen to Ke$ha (lol Rue <3) and it comes up with like, Michael Jackson. I figured out that adding the artist name in to the /gs query more often than not resolves any problem I have.

If your problem is not similar to mine, perhaps we also need to make a suggestion thread to fix Grooveshark.
 
There should be an option of having /gs for the people who want to listen to single tracks and /radio for people who like the radio style brodcast.

Sadly, adding the artists name does not help. Even adding the album name (which doesn't work usually, anyways) doesn't help. I can still get "No Matching Songs Found" notifications in chat whenever I make a spelling error in the Song title/Artist name, which does mean that the plugin is responding for me. (Also, flash is up-to-date, if that makes a difference)

perhaps we also need to make a suggestion thread to fix Grooveshark.

I have recently made a report on the subject, please check out: http://www.skial.com/threads/gs-or-gs-command-not-properly-working.40589/

(The report seems to have been forgotten)
 
I wonder if anyone thought to ask Valve to implement a music player or Winamp support in the Steam Overlay, that way only a single keypress is needed to start/stop music playback
