can subsonic playlist relay to shoutcast or icecast?

Postby darvil » Thu Sep 23, 2010 10:08 am

I feel like this can be done but I have yet to find any info after scouring this forum and the web for a while.

Basically I have a forum with a mod which connects to a shoutcast server.

What I'm interesting is it subsonic to relay to the shoutcast/icecast server. Basically have a playlist on subsonic relay to it.

Is this possible? Has anyone here done it before?

The best way I can think of is to use WinAmp as a Shoutcast server, and have it connect to Subsonic as an external player.

Subsonic itself? No. Not that I know of.

Cheers,

Kirk,

Do you know if shoutcast can play the playlist the subsonic creates? That might work but I'm not sure if the playlist subsonic makes are unique.

I can install shoutcast on the same server as subsonic.

Winamp/Shoutcast has never had any problems for me with either relative or absolute path m3u's, so it should work! Ensure the m3u is in the same directory or in a parent directory of the mp3 files. What mod are you using, and is this phpBB or vBulletin?

Excellent! What I'm planning is to do is to have like a "general" playlist that the shoutcast runs on. Which only I and some mods can modify. The shoutcast will be connect to the forum mod and will play the song like a radio.

Members will also be able to login to subsonic with their forum account. This part someone on the forum is writing a bridge script for me. I hope it works out. Essentially subsonic becomes a collective collection of songs just for forum members.

FYI I'm using this mod
