Shoutcast Web Management

grathol · 26th October 2003, 07:41

Hey everybody,
I'm in the process of writing some Perl scripts that will allow me to control my playlist and configuration files for shoutcast (sc_serv version 1.9.2 if I'm not mistaken) which uses sc_trans_040 to broadcast. Right now my intended features are:

-remote playlist management (add/remove files from the playlist)
-skip to next song
-toggle shuffle

Things I'm considering:
-the ability to restart both programs (although I'm not sure how I'd go about this)

What I'd like to know is:

1. Has anyone written anything to do this before and I just haven't come across it?

2. Would anyone find this useful?

3. What other things would be useful features that I can add?

Thanks!

1. Yes, I have

but you wouldn't have come accross it.

2. I am sure host providers would love to take your code.

3. I leave that to others.

I would love a great remote playlist control (control the Winamp DSP from a remote location using just the internet connection, but I guess it would have to have some good security). WWWinamp is good, but a little limited, and hey, a nice GUI is good too.

I'm working on a similar program myself, uses PHP, MySQL and is cross OS windows and Linux. Jay if you would like to use It (since it's free) I would be happy to loan you the script. (maybe internal alpha?)

that's alright, as I said I already wrote one a good while ago

thanks for the offer though.
