[Volunteer needed to modify a couple of lines for ascript to send NOWPLAYING Data]

Hey there,

 

I gotta say I am new to this forum and new to PHP. I found a script online that sends NOW PLAYING data, from a text file, to a shout cast server.

We're not using shout cast and I need to modify this script to make it work with TuneIn AIR API.

 

The script is based on this server URL:

Quote

http://myusername:pass@192.168.1.22:8543/admin/metadata?mount=/live&mode=updinfo&song=somesongandartist

 

Though TuneIn uses a different URL and API

Quote

http://dev.radiotime.com/opml/playing.ashx?partnerId=<p_id>&partnerKey=<p_key>&id=<id>&title=Larry+Song&artist=Larry+Artist

 

I currently don't have the PartnerID and PartnerKey but that should be easy to replace in the script.

 

I'm calling everyone on this forum to help me out with this and change the code to make this script work.

I would appreciate it very much!!

 

The text file I am using also uses a different format:  Name/Artist/Title/Album/Genre/Year/Time

 

("/" is the seperator)

 

I don't want to send the name, album, genre and time

 

Heres more information on the TuneIN API: http://tunein.com/broadcasters/api/

 

I'm a radio guy and not not a coder. Thats why I ask for this big favor.

 

Thank you very much.

This is the script:

I don't think a server login is required with TuneIn. The data is formatted sent to the URL including the unique ID's etc.

 

<?php

/**

* This program will check a file every 5 seconds to see if it has changed...if it has, the new metadata will be sent to the icecast server(s)

*/

 

//the path to the file where your song information is placed...please see below notes for formatting of metadata

DEFINE('songfile', "C:\Users\pvcsnathan\Desktop\file.txt");

 

 

//simply copy and paste this code block for each server you need to add

$serv["host"][] = "127.0.0.1"; //ip or hostname the server is running on

$serv["port"][] = 8000; //port the server is running on

$serv["mount"][] = "/mount"; //this format: /mount

$serv["user"][] = "user"; //icecast server username
