some shoutcast update changes
#1
i've made a couple changes to the script, this is my first time using python, so i didn't delve far in, but what i did was cause the numbers placed at the beginning of the filenames to show a leading zero to keep them listed in order on the screen and i also had it place the bitrate right after the count number so it was easy to see what bitrate the stream was at.

if i feel like teaching myself enough about python i'll set it up so the output file name follows a user-definable string. i'll also see if i can do some better parsing to get the station name out of the retreived field and seperate it from the description, but this is obviously a more difficult algorithm to implement, so it will prbly take me some time.

anyway, here's what i changed so someone can change the cvs copy if they want...

line 138 becomes:
filename = '%sk ' % bitrate + strip(filename, 0, xfs_file_length - 4 - 3 - 5 - 1) + '.pls'

and line 237 becomes:
filename = '%02d ' + get_filename(plsfilecontent, station.get_bitrate())

so now it looks like:
01 128k somafm....

ok, i've decided to get it to sort by bitrate too...
i'm working on that right now and will post the change to get that to work...

hehe, ok, i have it sorting by bitrate now, wasn't that hard...
but, in doing so i discovered a parseing flaw in the script that prevented stations that don't have a "now playing" line from being grabbed, so i fixed the function responsible for this and now it seems to work...

here's the function i changed:
Quote:# gets the stations out of the html page by looking for a 'filename.pls' string.

def get_stations(htmlcontent):
stations = []
for line in htmlcontent:
if line.find('filename.pls') != -1:
if line.find('now playing') !=-1:
line_count = 7
else:
line_count = 6
#always seven lines later its the html content with the bitrate
bitrate = get_bitrate(htmlcontent[htmlcontent.index(line) + line_count])
if min_bitrate <= bitrate <= max_bitrate:
stations.append(plsdescriptor(line, bitrate))
if len(stations) == max_number_of_stations:
break
return stations

so this will make sure all the stations get added.

and line 79 becomes:
shoutcast_genre_path = 'http://www.shoutcast.com/directory/?sgen...y=bitrate'

this will sort the list with highest bitrate first.

anyone know why the dialog.yesno doesn't autosize correctly?
the dialog.create seems to autosize correctly

thanks!

i found this issue also.   i rewrote with regex.  no more counting lines.  grouping makes it easy to pull out the info from the html line without needing external functions to split strings.

Quote:title = re.compile('target="_scurl" href=.*>(.*)</a>')
bitrate = re.compile('>(\d+)<')
rn_number = re.compile('rn=(\d+)&file=filename.pls')

for line in htmlcontent:
# search for rn number of shoutcast playlist file
m = rn_number.search(line)
if m:
rn_number = m.group(1)
if line.find('/tr>') != -1 and rn_number != 0:
genres[genre].append([rn_number,bitrate,title])
rn_number = 0    
if rn_number != 0:  
m = title.search(line)
if m:
title = m.group(1)
m = bitrate.search(line)
if m:
bitrate = m.group(1)

zinger, awesome, that was the next peice of code i wanted to rewrite.

i'm gunna merge this with my test tree and test it out.

zinger, i get a line error about
"for line in htmlcontent"
as invalid syntax

any ideas? maybe i did something wrong in pasting it?

sorry, thats from a script i'm working on. not for shoutcast.py. i never fixed shoutcast_update after finding the issue. here is my modified version though. it adds the ability to specify bitrate min/max and channel number by genre. also creates pls with only one stream so xbmc will just play the stream instead of opening pls first.

Quote:#shoutcast .pls updater for xbmc. use at your own risk!
#edit config part in script, copy script to $home\script\ directory,
#start and enjoy.
#keep in mind, that updating too frequently or with too many
#genres and/or stations will "bann" you from shoutcast for ~24h.
#feel free to edit, bugfix, enhance and so on... :-)
#initial version by nei

# known issues:
# -none for the moment;-)

you should be able to use the code. with some changes. it pulls the title from the page not the pls and only grabs the rn number to build the link to the pls file. i've been working on a live player (does not download anything to hd) and provides all genre/station stuff in gui dialogs. but maybe you can port it into the updater script. good luck.

ah, ok, so i have to add the other info.

so should i continue working on this if your writing a cooler version?
