Hi all, We're integrating a new tool FileScheduler [0] with LiquidSoap.
To make short, FileScheduler can choose in a directory the "next" content to be played (by LiquidSoap in this case). This part works fine (with a simple request.dynamic/request.create). FileScheduler can also manage contents with a "forced time". For example, to start at exactly 14h00 a given file. This "forced" content must skip the current content in LiquidSoap. The FileScheduler usage is very simple : file-scheduler <directory> next : returns the next file file-scheduler <directory> forced_next : returns nothing or the "forced" file This small LiquidSoap script integrates FileScheduler : https://gist.github.com/1577924 This "forced_next" part is more difficult to integrate. We're using a fallback.skip with an "conditional" switch. But I have some difficulties to make an efficient forced_change predicate (https://gist.github.com/1577924#L10) [1]. As the switch checks several times per second the predicate, the "if 0s then" condition isn't enough strict and the external check is performed several times in the same second. It's very expensive (mainly because we're using this script on our small PlayBoxes). I tried to save the last gettimeofday in variable/list/... to skip checks in the same second ... but I didn't found a way to "store" this value with LiquidSoap language/API. There are other solutions to make a single forced_next at each 0s like using a more complex switch, etc. But I prefer to have feedback from real LiquidSoap users :) Regards, 0. http://wiki.tryphon.eu/filescheduler/start 1. The current forced_change precidate ignores the filename returns by FileScheduler. -- Alban Peignier - [email protected] Tryphon : Radio, Web et Logiciels Libres http://www.tryphon.eu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
