New flashplayer but no songinfo
New flashplayer but no songinfo
sort of appreciate the flashplyer update you've made. But I really miss the SONG INFO - and find it rather a major minus that my listernes nolonger are able to see who & what they are listening to.
I have copy/paste the mini script, and that also works - but (of couse) only loads the song that are playing upon visitors entering the page.

Re: New flashplayer but no songinfo
figured out some sort of a solution that I will post here for any one else interested.
I made a HTML page with the NOW PLAYING miniscript provided by Bellonline. This page is set to reload every 20 seconds, so the NOW PLAYING info will saty udated.
Looking like this:
- Code: Select all
<html>
<head>
<title>Now playing</title>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="20;URL=http://www.MY-SITE.com/SONG-INFO.htm" />
<meta name="Generator" content="Stone's WebWriter 4">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#800080" link="#0000FF" vlink="#660066" alink="#FF0000">
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://shoutcast.mixstream.net/js/song/MY-SERVER.INFO">
You appear to have javascript turned off.
</script>
</body>
</html>
On my mainpage (where I have the FLASHPLAYER)- I added an iframe where I want the info to be shown. This looks like this:
- Code: Select all
<iframe src="http://www.MY-SITE.com/SONG-INFO.htm" width=400 height=40 </iframe>
It works, how ever it does not look fresh, sharp or flashy - actually a bit clumsy - but does what I want.
But I am seriosly hoping, that there SOON is an update on the Flashplayer that will provide the song-info
I would also appreciate if the FLASHPLAYER would show the name of the e-radio. Just looks and seems more .... ehm ... more you know... more proper
Waiting...
Best

The old player was quite unpopular, however a few people have said they they preferred it so I'll be adding an option so that customers can use either player - I'll do this tomorrow or monday.

Re: New flashplayer but no songinfo
has this issue been resolved? I am currently getting correct song info (title/artist) on the pls stream but nothing on the site.
Alternatively, where am I supposed to use the scripts suggested here? Does it has to be on my own site? I haven't found any area where to write custom code...
Thanks
