Happy New Year all, what better way to spend the holiday than working on kodi. I just upgraded to 7.9 from 7.1 on an Odroid C2, and that has kept me nice and busy trying to get it back to the way I had it. The Pandora add-on from spbogie was working well in 7.1, but I'm getting an error which looks like it is a python player issue, the Pandora script uses xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_MPLAYER. I'm still trying to learn how everything is related, so that's my rookie guess so far. I'm figuring the python script needs to be updated or I need to update a library somewhere which may had gotten lost in the upgrade. Putty shows I'm running Python 2.7.13. Here is the error message from kodi.log:
Error Type: <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>
Error Contents: 'module' object has no attribute 'PLAYER_CORE_MPLAYER'
Traceback (most recent call last):

Well, nevermind, I think I have a working Pandora addon again. I initially got it working again by using rivy's util.py and pandaplayer.py in place of spbogie's, but then decided to wipe out spbogie's and go with rivy's entirely. I haven't really wrapped my head around all the different addons out there.
The one line that needs to be updated in rivy's is in the pandaplayer.py which I found fritsch posted the change for rivy. So in case this helps anyone else that wanted the Pandora add-on for LE, download the zip from rivy here:
GitHub - rivy/xbmc-pandora: Pandora Radio plugin for XBMC
Install the add-on from zip. Browse to the python file kodi/addons/script.audo.pandora/resources/lib/pandaplayer.py and update the line under the procedure "def play" from
xbmc.Player( xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_MPLAYER ).play( url, item )
to
xbmc.Player().play( url, item )
Here's fritsch's post

Thanks to all the developers with the work on the Pandora addon. Took some hunting and a small update, but looks like it is still working for kodi after all these years.
