Hi All So I've managed to get some of the backend stuff working which basically means a perl script that: 1. logs into the site. 2. gets the page with the list of music archives. 3. loads all the uid's(stream identifier) into an array 4. does a submit for each uid 5. from each returned page get the .ram|.smil|.ra file and parses the file for the cloaked rtsp stream location. 6. format the location up a bit so it plays nice with .m3u's and get the date and names of the DJ's from the show. 7. creates a .m3u playlist with all 700 or so streams and the date and description of the show.
It takes about 10 minutes to generate the file mainly because for each entry it has to do a submit to get the source location (about 1.5 secs) and there are over 700 shows. For the plugin I was thinking of generating the list of shows off the one page that has the full list and then doing the submit for only the selected show once play is pressed. Any suggestion keeping in mind that 99% of this data is static? The only exception being when they are having a live show or when a new show is added. wr420 and yes regexp's are a must. -- wr420 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wr420's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1040 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37332 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
