I would love to wake up telling cron to play a mp3 that the name chages. I have done shoutcast but the ip address change all the time so call the stream is out the pls file is the same place. I love http://www.audiotreasure.com and there using m3u . and I am in to podcast but don't have a clue on RSS'
Some times I have X11 in gone running and some times its KDE and some times X11 is stopped.
I really want something that reads M3U, PLS, RSS, to play the files. so I can wake up to those play lists. not need to know if my gui is running.
Well I can't rely on the MP3 to he there How would I tell mplayer to read a RSS file. I have just been telling mplayer to play the stream or the mp3 files I don't understand How to to Mplayer to read a PLS M3U or a RSS file. thank you for your help
That makes it a lot easier to play a pls and m3u file.
PS I was thinking about telling corn to call the files one at a time and there about 22 mp3 per day. or one m3u and I was manually reading pls files. and typing them in to play a stream. it okay when the first stream is not full but some times I would be typing in about 5 different servers. thank you for your help.
There was an article in one of the magazines on using bash to update rss feeds and automatically download programs. I think there is a similar program(s) called "bashpodder". Google for "bash podder", I'm sure you'll find something.
