Hi, I have a list of audio stream URLs. However some of them are NSV streams and some are not.
In order to get the NSV streams to work I need to add the string: '/;nsv' to the end of the URL.
I would like to know if there is a way for me, or the player, to determine if the stream is a NSV stream somehow? From what I see, the player does not have this capability.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Thats what I was afraid of. So I would have to grep the HTML code from the mount point and search for the string 'shoutcast' if I wanted to determine this through some type of script?
Also, would you happen to know if the player will be adding in an auto detection for nsv streams in the future?
Yes, your playlist generator script would have to check the HTML returned by the mount point to determine the type of stream.
I doubt that the stream type detection will ever be added to the player, since that's not a mainstream use. Just MY opinion.
The player cannot detect the type of the stream.
When you are compiling your playlist, simply go to the mount point in your browser and it will tell you what type of stream it is.
