First of all, thank you very much for your work!! On my mac it works like charm. I just struggle with my Raspberry. Since the repo version is outdated I installed it from your source, now it's up to date. But with a normal request I get:

When I go out over the school proxy:

Looks like connectivity issue. Can you access http://api.soundcloud.com/resolve.json?url=http://soundcloud.com/chloebaiano/best-before-final&client_id=02gUJC0hH2ct1EGOcYXQIzRFU91c72Ea from browser?

Thanks for your answer. I don't have an User Interface installed, so no browser. Or are there command line browser out there? When I ping it, I get:

ping: unknown host http://api.soundcloud.com/resolve.json?url=http://soundcloud.com/chloebaiano/best-before-final

You can use wget or curl.
