linein:// and song currently playing..

richiec79 · 26th June 2001, 21:34

Appologies if this has been asked before, i've been searching and haven't found anything answering this question before.

I'm using the linein plugin for winamp and was wondering if there was any way I could 'force' it to update the current song playing. My automation software generates a file everytime there's a song change with the current song and the next song info...

Any ideas how to do this?

Thanks

If you can get the song info into the following URL and have it submitted then your problems would be solved.
http://IP:PORT/admin.cgi?pass=PASS&m...ng=$a%20-%20$t

Where:
IP = the IP of the server
PORT = port of the server
PASS = password of the server
$a = artist name
$t = title name

Upon submitting this you will not be taken to a page however the info has been submitted.
