 Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 6:30 pm Post subject: Currently Playing Song Title Data Question |
 |
|
Hi, is the admin/stats.xsl the only default way of getting the currently playing title track from IceCast? ShoutCast has the public /7.html page that returns data including the NOW PLAYING track name. Does IceCast have something similar that is publicly visible?
Yes figured it out - /status2.xsl has a now playing area

Two useful php functions for icecast
- isIceCast($url) - will tell you if the url is an incecast server
- checkIceCastStatus($url) will tell you the NOW PLAYING track
| Code: |
/************************ isIceCast() *************************************/
//feed this function an m3u to determine if you have an icecast server
//it needs php > 4.3 for stream_get_meta_data() to work
function isIceCast($url)
{
//by streamfinder -at- gmail.com
//$url = 'http://stream.masterssystems.com:8000/rkr.ogg.m3u';
//$url = "http://201.6.214.205:8000/stream.mp3.m3u";
//dont work $url = "http://s1.pop-stream.de:8034/listen.pls";
$stream = rtrim(file_get_contents($url));
$fp = fopen($stream,'r');
$data = stream_get_meta_data($fp);
//print_r($data);
$result = false;
foreach($data[wrapper_data] as $line)
{ echo $line.'<br>';
if(substr($line,0,15)=='Server: Icecast'){ $result = true;}
}
return $result;
}
/*********************** checkIceCastStatus() *****************************/
//feed this function a icecast server url to status2.xsl
function checkIceCastStatus($url)
{
// by streamfinder -at- gmail.com
//sample xsl needed
//$url = 'http://vapid.reprehensible.net:6500/status2.xsl';
$lines = file($url); //read status2.xsl into an array
if($lines == false) { $text = false; }
else
{
//find the line with the header columns
$key = array_search("MountPoint,Connections,Stream Name,Current Listeners,Description,Currently Playing,Stream URL \n",$lines);
//mount points and now playing occur two lines later
$mntkey = ($key + 2);
//echo 'Mountkey = '.$mntkey;
$mntpnt = explode(',',$lines[$mntkey]);
$i = 0; //initialize counter
$song = ''; //initialize song name
while($song == '' && $i < 100) //try to find a song title it is 5 keys away from the mountpoint beginning with a slash / - 100 is our timeout
{
//check if first character is a slash /
if($mntpnt[$i]{0} == '/')
//we have a mountpoint
{
if($mntpnt[$i+5] != '' && $mntpnt[$i+5] != " - ")
//we have a song title
{ $song = $mntpnt[$i+5]; }
} //no song title, check next line
$i++;
}
if($song != '') {
$text = 'Now Playing(icecast): '.$song;
} else { $text = 'Now Playing(icecast): unknown'; }
}
return $text;
}

Hope you find these useful - I am open to suggestions and improvements |

|
|
Here is what I did using the ICES que file. Only for ICES sources though, not a general ICECAST solution:
Have a php file called current_tune.php:
<?php
$filename = "/tmp/ices.cue";
$handle = fopen($filename, "r");
$contents = fread($handle, filesize($filename));
list($fname,$size,$bitrate,$length,$pct,$idx,$artist,$title) = split("\n",$contents);
fclose(handle);
echo "Now playing:".$artist."<BR>";
echo $title;
?>
Then, whenever I want to display the current track, I just include:
<?php @include_once('current_tune.php'); ?>
cheers!  |
