A few months ago Sirius changed the channel number of my favorite station, it was Area 33 but got moved to Area 38. In my channel list it still shows up as area33 but tunes to channel 38.
I recently have been interested in the channel lists and currently playing songs because I wanted to dig into the code a bit and see if I could get the current artist/song to display in the GUI player. I have been using the command line player for the last couple of days and watching the song output, then today I tuned to "area33" but noticed that the song output is actually for channel 33 which is now Sirius Disorder 33.
I thought that sipie pulled the station list from the server (and it looks that way from the code) but is that station list being cached some place? Thanks.

You're right, it does pull the data from his server. It looks like his server isn't posting the correct data for each of the channels correctly. I know that for the alpha-linux version of SiNet (a project I started over at https://sourceforge.net/projects/sinet/\) I had to tweak my server to handle these same changes. I'll shoot Eli an e-mail about it and see if he's interested in fixing things.
If you're in interested in running an alpha-test of SiNet, let me know.

Thanks for the reply. I mostly use Linux systems which is how I came to find out about this project (the web based player from sirius is temperamental under Linux). I do have a windows system at home though and I will check out SiNet, maybe that will fix my problem of Firefox eating up all my memory from leaving a firefox window open for days on end.
Now I need to go learn some python and figure out how the gui main loop works.

I understand. I mentioned SiNet because I have been working on a alpha-linux version for use on linux based distros. I have been tweaking the code so that it runs on linux over mono and using mplayer. If you're interested in testing, let me know.
