Hi, folks. I've installed icecast 1.3.11 and I'm very happy with it. But I'd like to add a "now playing" gizmo to my home page; can anyone point me to a php script or something else that does the trick? Thanks in advance. -- People don't quit playing because they ___vvz /( grow old. They grow old because they <__,` Z / ( quit playing.

I'm using shout and not ices (I couldn't get it to compile; I'm using FreeBSD and can't code C worth a damn), so the second approach will not work. But I can write a parsing script (I had'n thought of the cue file), so I'll be trying that. I had thought of querying the server itself for the title information; clients do this, right? In this way I could get this info for an external server. -- People don't quit playing because they ___vvz /( grow old. They grow old because they <__,` Z / ( quit playing.

The first is to parse the cue file that ices generates. On my system at least, the artist and song constitute the last two lines of said cue file. The location of this file is set in your ices.conf file. Another approach is to write a perl handler for ices. in the ices_perl_get_next() function, insert the chosen song info into a database table. Then write a PHP script to select from that table. -- Steve Chadsey <tyr@teiresias.net> Now playing: Karma (Kamelot - "Karma") --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
