How to disable automatic playlist expanding (before play)?

[daniol]

Hi.

I am designing a interactive radio for my Shoutcast channel. I have on a DB some music filenames.
The people can vote the songs that want to listen first.

With .httaccess I added php for M3U8 extension with

code:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .m3u8

php_value auto_prepend_file playlistgenerator.php

As is, when on my server is requested
http://www.example.com/radio/playlist.m3u8
php generates the playlist ordered by the songs more requested and some random

It's generated with:

PHP Code:

header("Content-Type: audio/mpegurl");
header("Content-Disposition: filename=playlist.m3u8"); 


The m3u8 file outputted seems as

code:


#EXTM3U

#EXTINF:-1,Artist 1 - Title 1

C:\Music\XXX\filenameA.mp3

#EXTINF:-1,Artist 2 - Title 2

C:\Music\YYY\filenameB.mp3

#EXTINF:-1,Artist 3 - Title 3

C:\Music\ZZZ\filenameC.mp3

#EXTINF:-1,http://www.example.com/radio/playlist.m3u8

http://www.example.com/radio/playlist.m3u8

I should play this playlist on my computer and the songs were played on my Shoutcast channel.

My idea is at the end of the reproduction of the playlist, reload it automatically for load new songs ordered with new votes.
This is why I add the last item "playlist.m3u8".

But it doesn't work, because
when I open this playlist on Winamp, Winamp expands the playlist and reload "playlist.m3u8" from the server again..., and it enters into a infinity loop.

There is any way on Winamp for disabling this automatic expanding of playlists before it's played?

I tried disabling "read metadata only when file(s) are played" but it doesn't work.

Or anyone knows another way for doing this?

Thanks a lot!

Not an available option.

OK, I see...
And how I can do it in another way?
How can I refresh the playlist from the server before the playing has ended, any plug-in?

takk!
