Re: [Freevo-users] Streaming Internet Radio

Hi Tommy

I wrote and submitted the internet streaming part on 7th May and I'm pretty sure its only in the cvs version and not in pre4 which came out on 24th April.

So you can either use the cvs version or here are the modifications I submitted at the time (Aubin cleaned them up for the cvs so this is more a 'rougher' version but it works quickly if you want to use it - it is just things like the labels are incorrect on the screen like it says 'album'):

Go to src/audio

Add these two bits to audioitem.py (should be pretty obvious where to put them):

          if re.match('.*[fF][xX][dD]$', self.filename):
              if DEBUG > 1: print "Got fxd..."
              self.set_info_radio(self.filename)

AND

  def set_info_radio(self, filename):
      """
      Sets the info variables with info from the mp3

      Arguments: filename
        Returns: 1 if success
      """
      import xmllib
      import xml
      from xml.parsers import expat
      sourcexml = open(filename, 'r')
      xmlpp = sourcexml.read()

      def s_el(name, attrs):
          global glob_name
          glob_name = name
      def e_el(name):
          print "   (attribute", name, "ends)"
      def c_data(data):
          global glob_name
          global glob_val
          global glob_url
          print glob_name, data
          if data:
              if glob_name == 'title':
                  self.title = data
                  glob_name = 0
              if glob_name == 'genre':
                  self.album = data
                  glob_name = 0
              if glob_name == 'desc':
                  self.artist = data
                  glob_name = 0
              if glob_name == 'url':
                  self.year = data
                  print "URL:", self.year
                  glob_name = 0
      prs = xml.parsers.expat.ParserCreate()
      prs.StartElementHandler = s_el
      prs.EndElementHandler = e_el
      prs.CharacterDataHandler = c_data
      prs.returns_unicode = 0
      prs.Parse(xmlpp)
      return 1

and edit this part of the audio/mplayer.py

  def play(self, item):
      """
      play a audioitem with mplayer
      """
      if item.year:
          filename = item.year
      else:
          filename = item.filename

You will also need to edit the freevo_config to recognise fxd files in the audio bit. Sorry its so messy, I have never programmed python before.

Here is an example fxd file:

<?xml version="1.0" ?> <freevo> <title>Ministry of Sound Radio</title> <audio> <mplayer_options></mplayer_options> <url>http://www.ministryofsound.com/asx/radio/mosradio.asx</url> </audio> <info> <genre>Dance</genre> <desc>All the Biggest Names in Dance - Fatboy Slim, Sasha, Jazzy M, Paul Van Dyk, DJ Wicksta, Peri Rollah, Ferry Corsten and many more live on MoS Radio.</desc> </info> </freevo>

If you need a hand adding this stuff then mail me or icq 4545353.

Regards,
Paul

PS. as you probably noticed, the 'logo' part is unessecary in the .fxd files, I just left that there when I was testing. If you call the image the same name as the .fxd then it works (as I see you have done).

Hi,
I'm having trouble getting Internet Radio to work. Sorry to bother you guys
but and I think I need some pointers in the right direction :)
Freevo shows the Internet Radio directory in the Audio menu, but it says
that "The directory is empty" when I enter it. I use freevo-1.3.2-pre4 on
top of RH8.0
I have created a directory where I want to put my server URLs called
"/mnt/iradio".
[EMAIL PROTECTED] iradio]# pwd
/mnt/iradio

My local_conf.py contains:
DIR_AUDIO = [ ('My Audio Files', '/mnt/common/Music'),
             ('Internet Radio', '/mnt/iradio') ]
One of my .fxd files look like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] iradio]# cat Classic\ Techno.fxd
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<freevo>
   <title>Classic Techno</title>

All you need to do is add a fxd file like this example to your Music
directories.
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<freevo>
   <title>Mostly Classical</title>
   <logo source="testfiles/Music/"></logo>
   <audio>
       <mplayer_options></mplayer_options>
       <url>http://205.188.209.193:80/stream/1006</url>
   </audio>
   <info>
       <genre>Classical</genre>
       <desc></desc>
   </info>
</freevo>

Hello List,

I'm sure I've seen this at least mentioned before on this list, but I can't find it in the archives. Is there any way to have Freevo play streaming internet radio, or any icecast style stream. I can play them through mplayer by providing a URL on the command line. So how can I automate this through Freevo. There's got to be an XML tag

somewhere! ;)

Thanks for any help,

-Jay Herrick
