- Rated 5 out of 5by Schiamachist, 3 years agoBeen using this for many years now so it deserves the review! Great tool, good UI, fits SoundCloud's theme perfectly.
If I wanted to make it like 30% better I would add hotkey mapping for pause/play, next, like, etc.
Great little addon, thanks Luciano!
Edit: removed my comment about an intermittent bug. On further investigation it looks like its some interaction between SoundCloud and my adblocker, so unrelated to this addon.Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14590065, 4 years agoWorked fine and was great to use! But it sadly stopped working recently.
Edit: works great again after a few weeks. - Rated 2 out of 5by ohcibi, 4 years agoThe 2-star rating is for this plugin being pretty much pointless. What do I need this player for if it requires an open soundcloud tab. (P.S. I know that this app does "what the title says". But by this reasoning one would have to give a 5 star rating for an app that is called "This app doesnt do anything" which doesnt do anything)
Steps to make soundcloud desktop player:
1. Got to any stream in soundcloud and go share->embed and copy the iframe html code
2. Create new file on desktop, call it soundcloud.html (should end with .html not with .html.txt, doubleclick should open a blank page in your default browser and not notepad)
3. Copy iframe code to it. Its not proper html but browsers will still display it. If you know how you can add the usual htmlbody stuff
4 .Install python
5. Hit Start Button, type cmd, hit enter
6. Type c: hit enter, type cd c:\Users/"type your username here"/Desktop
7. enter python -m http.server hit enter
8. Open Edge (works in chrome as well but edge is installed on every windows 10)
9. In the address bar put http://localhost:8080/soundcloud.html
10. Open hamburger menu, click Apps -> Install site as app. Choose "Soundcloud Player" as name.
11. Close edge
12. You now have a "Soundcloud Player" AppDeveloper response
posted 4 years agoHi! good tutorial ! These steps can be not trivial for basic users, also for linux users, paths like 'c:\Users/"type your username here"/Desktop' makes no sense. For last, I personaly would preffer to install my extension with one click instead of follow these 12 steps.
cheers! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13479063, 5 years agoDog this is awesome! Like button, artist name and even a picture. Exactly what I wished for Santa.

- Rated 5 out of 5by roflsunriz, 5 years agoThis addon works as description says, but it didn't satisfy my needs.
- Rated 3 out of 5by BroArmy_9, 5 years agoIts a nice concept but it has some flaws... First of all when i tried playing a song it did'nt work. last of all they should add an repeat song button.
- Rated 5 out of 5by justahotbag, 6 years agoDoes exactly, as it says on the tin. The drop-down, maybe could be a little prettier (rounded edges/maybe a slight transparency), especially the icon (definitely not be a perfect square blob). I wish it had a rewind/fast forward, maybe a variable short press/long press one, and a dedicated icon to play/pause, if that's even possible, or shortcut keys. However, press play on the SoundCloud page once, maybe pin it, and you don't have to bring it up again. Which is what I wanted. Good Job. (Tested on Waterfox 56.2.5)
