Listen link

Post by comet7 »

Hi
This is great tool for not only getting stats of different stations but also for the load balancing on the different servers. Radio Toolbox (server website) has link to listen the radio station, and it creats the the playlist in pls format. In that playlist it provides the addresses of the stations, the lowest number of listeners station it puts on the very first level of the playlist. The problem with pls format is it only works in winamp, vlc player etc. It does not work for windows media player because the playlist(pls) is not compatible with WM Player. Since more people like to use hand held devices like cellular phone. Most of time you are able to provide the direct url with port number then these hand held devices works great. When you put the http://server.com:4000, it creates the playlist, it does not work for smart phones. Here is my question, is there any way to provide one url of the lowest listeners server with no playlist formating syntax etc. just http://server1.com:8000.

No, I would have to add that capability to the tool. I will put it in the list of things to add to version 2.
