Icecasters -- Does someone have any script code (perl, bash, whatever) that creates a "Now Playing" list from the ices playlist and logs? Ideally, it would display the last five songs that played as well as the next five (for non-random playlists) and be able to wrap around to the beginning when it hits the end of the list. ;-) Thanks, Roy http://www.lamrim.com/ Tibetan Buddhist Internet Radio --- >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.

Viewing the "last five" shouldn't be too hard either then. And showing the next songs ... well, you wouldn't normally do this - and in some countries this also conflicts with law (because you may not announce songs that will be played next due to copyright-issues). If you announce the next songs I guess the intention of those laws is to prevent from people saying "oh, in 15 minutes I need to press record on my tapedeck". As far as I understand it laws want to make it harder for them to record what they want. Surely they can grab everything they currently hear - but that's a different story :-) Stefan --- >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.
