Hi all,

I am stuck due to a lack of understanding the details of the URL authentication.

I am not a coder but an amateur who usually gety by with a little help from Google. But after searching the web for weeks I gave up. All the solutions on stackexchange are so unique that they did not help me understand this.

It is my objective that my audio stream can ONLY be heard on my website - after you logg in. I got the player working but I simply don't understand the URL method.

I know I have to integrate certain queries in the icecast.xml that are then answered by the player on my website. Unfortunately I don't know where to integrate these codes. In a file in the webroot? In the header of the player page?

Another thing is that the player is working, but when I hit the pause buttom and restart the player 10 minutes later the song picks up there I paused the player even though the radio stream is already 2 titles ahead. So the coverart does not match the audio.

I guess that also has something to do with certain tweaks in the icecast.xml. Again ... I don't know how to add these tweaks to my website.

Due to royalty issues my website is behind a firewall for the time being.

Can anyone shed some light on my questions?

I included the icecast.xml and the iFrame that contains the player.

Best wishes,
Paul

Here is the iFrame that enables persistent audio on my Drupal site:

Code:

<html>
<meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1" />
<meta name=viewport content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
  <style type="text/css">
        html, body {
                background: #333333;
                height: 100%;
                margin: 0px;
                padding: 0px;
                border: 0px;
                }
iframe {
                width: 100%;
                height: 92%;
                margin: 0px;
                padding: 0px;
                border: none;
                display: block;
        }
  </style>
<body>

<?php
print('<iframe id="drupal_site" src="http://test.zoootradio.com" height="92%" width="100%" frameborder="0"></iframe>');

print('<audio id="player" controls>');
print('<source src="http://192.168.2.50:8000/zr.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">');
print('</audio>');
?>

</body>
</html>


Here is the icecast.xml I use:

Code:

<icecast>
    <!-- location and admin are two arbitrary strings that are e.g. visible
         on the server info page of the icecast web interface
         (server_version.xsl). -->

    <admin>icemaster@localhost</admin>

    <!-- IMPORTANT!
         Especially for inexperienced users:
         Start out by ONLY changing all passwords and restarting Icecast.
         For detailed setup instructions please refer to the documentation.
         It's also available here: http://icecast.org/docs/
