i change all of this all the time and just felt like sharing today.

I want a controller for Pandora music player. I have found this https://www.deviantart.com/tymorian/art/WIP-ElpisLink-1-02-UPDATED-697919711 which should work, but it it requires a .vdproj to be installed which I can't seem to do. I've been mucking aroung with Vistual Studio (which I can't get to run on my computer for some reason), but I'm not sure that that will let me install this project. Does anyone have experience with this or other similar controls that can give me some advice?

The closest thing is the old PandoraONE app (which may be broken if the 32.0.0.116 update of Adobe AIR is installed, not sure whether later versions of AIR will let it play audio again), although Elpis works fine too...but neither one can be "Always On Top" to my understanding.

There is also an official Windows 10 app, but that definitely isn't small or Always On Top.

Try Elpis for pandora. A lot better than the web version.

But my guess would be internet issues. Which if you can play pandora normally elsewhere, shoots down my guess.

• VLC The swiss army knife of media playback. If VLC can't decode it, nothing can! (free)
