Subsonic Forum

So Ive been on a mission of sorts, to get subsonic to stream Video efficiently

Ive settled on .ASF files. I found a great conversion tool that converts AVI, MPEG..etc in batches http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/268285 .. Great!


Creating the ASX file is easy.
Open a Notepad paste the following:

<ASX version="3">
<Entry>
<ref href="videofilename.asf" />
</Entry>
</ASX>


Save as .asx.


However, since subsonic masks the actual file location with a HEX value, the "<ref href="videofilename.asf" />" tag cannot be set.
It should look something like <ref href="http://servername:8080/subsonic/playlistview?playutf8HEX=......." />

I was wondering if it were possible for an ASX option to be added to subsonic, so that it could create .ASX files just as easily as it would .M3U files.

This would be awesome!

Asx files allow for better bandwidth management while streaming video.

Asx/asf files allow for seeking!

Hi mistaox,

I'm currently away on honeymoon, but I'll look into it when time permits.

Honeymoon? dont rush on my account, i'm sure you have more pressing things to take care of...hehe

any chance that this will make BETA?

I was out for a while and kind of lost track of this thread. Any chance this .asx might happen, Sindre? Thanks for Subsonic.

Sorry for bumping this thread, just wanna keep this one out there.

This would be an awesome feature. BUMP

this one cant be that hard to implement..BUMP
