Re: [Savonet-users] name and file from pls playlist

[andre c. <and...@c-...>]

Thanks David,

It sort of...

Because these are files over which I have no control (they live in 
archive.org), they might or might not have good metadata.

More essential to show during the stream (in a browser) rather than 
their metadata will be to show their url in archive.org. That's why I 
want to be able to have access to the current playing Title whithin a 
playlist

So saying that my morning.pls is:

[playlist]
numberofentries=2

Title1=http://www.archive.org/details/DeadbeatByDice/

File1=http://www.archive.org/download/DeadbeatByDice/05Deadbeat.ogg

Title2=http://www.archive.org/details/SlipperyWhenWet/
File2=http://www.archive.org/download/SlipperyWhenWet/BillCosby.ogg


and currently File1 is being played; I would like to have its 
Title(http://www.archive.org/details/DeadbeatByDice/) or 
File(http://www.archive.org/download/DeadbeatByDice/05Deadbeat.ogg)
in a variable. So that this information could be written into the stream 
metadata (the writing metadata part I am ok with)

Is this impossible??


I will send another email about this project ...
thank
a
