Internet Radio Station access
« on: July 28, 2003, 11:31:00 pm »

Is there a way to get access to the Internet Stations table? Or, can you build a page to return the list of stations, genre, playlist file, bit rate for access from an external controller.

So if I went to

http://www.musicex.com/mediajukebox/stations.asp

I would get something along the lines of:

&station1=Radio Paradise,Rock,128k,http://www.musicex.com/mediajukebox/MPL/83.mpl&station2=BBC News 24,News,33k,http://www.musicex.com/mediajukebox/MPL/249.mpl&station3=

or, preferably

<STATIONS><STATION name="Radio Paradise" bitrate="128k" genre="Rock" stream="http://www.musicex.com/mediajukebox/MPL/83.mpl"/><STATION name="BBC News 24".../></STATIONS>

and so on. I would like to be able to grab this information from a plug-in to send to a remote client for dynamically opening/adding radio streams to the playlist.

The perfect scenario would be to allow me to send in a getstations.asp?genre=rock&bitrate=128&country=us type string to only return those, but I'll work with whatever. If you'd like - I'll build the page if you just let me know how the information is stored.

If all else fails, I can always get the information one station at a time. My client app can store favorites and do all the handling - I just need something to get the station information.

Thanks,
Dan

HI Y'all,

http://www.musicex.com/cgi-bin/stations/listall.pl

It returns an html page with ALL radio stations.
Hopefully you can parse the html.
