Hi, I've had a good look round for the answer, if it's out there and it's staring me in the face then apologies but I can't see it.

I want to be able to save the name of each song I play to a file, eg:

10:00:00 Artist 1 - Song 1
10:03:12 Artist 2 - Song 2
10:07:33 Artist 3 - Song 3

Where Artist 1, Song 1 etc are actually read off the ID3.

Would I need some kind of plugin running which will output this information somewhere?

If I can create the file I will then look at manipulating
it to create playlist history pages etc with php or Mysql or something.

If anyone else has tried and succeeded or failed I'd love to hear how you got on.

cheers

winamp should do this for you. I do not know winamp too well, but you should be able to save a playlist as html I believe.


edit: just got it going in CxOffive (linux user). Under the "misc" tab, choose "misc" one of the options is "Generate html Playlist"

theres a historical php script here that can do what you are asking if it helps.

Yeah sort of, thanks for that, but what I was really looking for was some kind of plug in on the Winamp side which forces the name of the new track to be saved to a file on the web, as opposed to calling up a php page which then looks at what's been played recently. I know some playout systems can do this. Am I asking a bit too much of shoutcast?
