Please excuse my ignorance but here's what my server is doing....unsuccessfully:
open a datagram socket with FreeAmp when FreeAmp connects (my server is a Datagram
client)
when stream titles change:
send a datagram packet consisting of: "x-audiocast-streamurl: couldBeAnything"
followed by another datagram packet of: "x-audiocast-streamtitle:
alsoCouldBeAnything"
(as far as I can tell from the code, there's one space after the ":" but, even if
there were
two or three
spaces, that wouldn't disrupt FreeAmp's parsing of the packet)
The server isn't throwing any socket exceptions (and I've verified the UDP port at
runtime)
so, the data
is sent *somewhere*. Is the above correct or is this another "Stupid
Java/javaProgrammer
trick"
(lord knows I've seen lots of these in my project)?
BTW, thanks for the pointers to the correct source code modules...knowing where to
begin
saves me a lot
of time.
Thank you for your patience,
