OT: how do the 'links' work? - 2007/08/15 13:39
For some time I've been toying with the idea of creating a simplistic file-based browser for my old showcenter box -- nothing as feature rich as SwissCenter (that's already been done ).
I eventually found my way to "gen_playlist.php" and then "stream.php" but I'm still left scratching my head (the problem of being only a hobbyist with no real computer training and mostly .NET experience).
What do the links have to look like to correctly feed a file to the showcenter? Could I do it with a simple html page (i.e., say I had only one mp3 that I wanted to play and so I created a beautiful page with a link to .... where? that looked like .... what?).
Or does it have to be scripted (feeding http headers etc).
I realize Rob is probably still convalescing (ouch) but perhaps someone else has some experience?
Thanks, Brian
