Hi All

Stu90

Thanks for v 0.2. I have made two small scrips so as I can run the TV and the radio from desktop icons. I'm afraid this is the limit of my ability. I would like to add the new urls to v 0.2. Is this a matter of adding the urls to your script in alphabetical order or is there more to it?

I still have a problem in stopping a stream playing. This is only with radio. With TV I get a box. To stop the stream I click the "x" in the corner of the box. With radio there is no box. Your suggestion of Ctrl C did not work. If I press "f" with TV in both cvlc and mplayer it goes to fullscreen. If I press "q" in mplayer the steam stops. I am looking for the equivalent of q in cvlc. I hope this seems clear.

Thanks for all your work.

Ken.

stu90. Your streamplay script for radio stations creates /tmp/ice-stations file if it is not there already. But....if you dont have net connection and you start the script...it creates the dummy ice-stations file which afterwards with net connection prevents the file to be overwritten. And leads to empty station list. I removed the if statement and let it be overwritten everytime. Curl is so astonishingly fast...as you know that overwritten file is not big thing. And it is in /tmp anyway.

I think I have found the answer to the question about quiting cvlc. I found a hotkeys list for vlc here http://wiki.videolan.org/Hotkeys_table. Ctrl-q works for vlc but apparently there is no equivalent in cvlc and so I have change the player to vlc.

Ken.

Attached script: StreamPlayer 0.2 (was watch_tv) ....

Changelog for 0.2
- better $? handling and error codes (click X to quit now works, etc)
- separate lists for radio and TV streams
- choose radio or TV at startup
- added more TV streams
- updated text in GUI, shows TV or radio, depending what you choose
- auto sort the stream lists alphabetically
- renamed cancel button, now called 'Stop and Quit'
- the 'Stop and Quit' button now ends playback as well
- relevant fixes to make it all work in Xdialog and dialog

NOTE: I didn't include Stu extra radio stations,
but this could be done easy enough

Also, if anyone can get some working DemocracyNow streams that would be great!

Hi All

stu91

Thanks for telling me how to add a new stream then saving me having to do it by creating a new version. However, I will try adding any new streams that are posted.

scOttman

Thanks for all your work on the new version. I like the separation of the TV and radio and the ability to switch off the radio stream. However, I have found what I think might be a problem when playing the radio streams. When a stream is chosen the "radio" box disappears and the "startup" choice box appears. This means you cannot choose the stop and quit option. Hope this is clear.

Regards,

Ken.

Hi scOttman

OK, as you suggest it is not much of a problem. It works well and I like it a lot.

Why doesn't go in UBUNTU? Is only a script!

Might be a shell problem. Ubuntu uses dash rather than bash. Some built-in commands are different.
