Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Mixcloud plugin?
I found this page with information on how to extract the download link from the URL. Is it possible to use this information to create a playback plugin for the SB for Mixcloud mixes? -- SlimPvC SlimPvC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88286 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I guess that's the answer: http://www.mixcloud.com/developers/documentation/#audio-streams -- jo-wie 2 * Classic, 2 * Boom, SC 7.5.5 auf GigaByte STA/C mit VIA C7 1GHz, 1GB RAM, 250 GB 2,5 HD, Ubuntu Desktop 8.04 LTS, CD - FLAC = dbpoweramp, Mix MusicIP, Router AVM Fritz 3270 last.fm/user/jo-wie jo-wie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17952 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88286 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Mixcloud plugin?
Hmm, I wonder if it would be possible to do something with this together
with one of the already supported streaming services which allow you to
play specific songs, for example Spotify.
Basically a plugin that used the Mixcloud API to get the playlist and
lookup each song in the streaming service(for example Spotify) and then
play it on the Squeezebox automatically through the streaming plugin.
Which streaming plugins are available for Squeezebox which support to
search and play individual songs ?
I'm pretty sure it can be done through Spotify plugin but I assume
other users who don't have access to Spotify would like something else,
in that case what ?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Mixcloud plugin?
Hi Erland If I understand you right you're thinking of reading the Mixcloud playlist and then fetch the separate tracks from Spotify? This wouldn't be the same, since Mixcloud hosts 'mixtapes' in classic sense, which is not the same as head-tail compilation of divided tracks. Most of these DJ-mixes are collages,more than compilations, so dividing them to tracklists would not really work. Besides, we already have spotify for that ;-) (As a Mixcloud contributor 'ambientblog', I host ambient collages which sometime feature sounds of 4 tracks simultaneously). I can somehow understand why Mixcloud is 'closed'. They claim to pay royalties to the artists, though I don't understand exactly how they do that. Would e nice if they 'opened' up their API for paying customers, like Spotify does. I'd be more than willing to contribute. -- SlimPvC SlimPvC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88286 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
