Display Song on internet

Hi,

We want to display our songs on either our play box or website, but need information how to do this.

Our filenames for all songs are: "title of song_artist"

In other words, we only need to list the file name for listeners to know who is singing the song and the artist.

YOUR HELP IS APPRECIATED! Joe B

Re: Display Song on internet

There is a Raduga add-in in the folder C:\Program Files\WoLoSoft\Raduga\AddIns\FtpUpload. It uploads the name of the currently playing song by FTP to a server. Please read the Readme.txt file in the folder for setup instructions.

Re: Display Song on internet

Hey Guys,

Hope you don't mind me tagging on the end of your post but it applies to the same thing about uploading song info by FTP and i thought Wolfgang or someone might be able to help.

I have installed the Java app and it is generating the local playlist file, but when i start Raduga i get an error:

Putfile "C:\Playlist.html", "html/playlist.html" failed:

What does this mean exactly and how do i fix it? I have the playlist.html file in my root HTDocs folder on my server and this can be viewed ok:

http://www.wmsluk.com/playlist.html

So any suggestions before i go even more insaine?????

Re: Display Song on internet

The FtpUpload.js is located in the folder "C:\Program Files\WoLoSoft\Raduga\AddIns\FtpUpload\" and it starts like this:

/*************************************************************************/
/* Configuration parameters */

var server = "yourserver.com" // your FTP server name
var userName = "username" // your FTP account
var password = "password" // your FTP password

var localFile = "C:\\FtpUpload.html" // a temporary local file name
var remoteFile = "FtpUpload.html" // file name on the remote server

/*************************************************************************/

You must adjust all of these parameters to match your FTP server.

The remoteFile parameter must be given relative to the FTP root directory and it should be a location within the DocumentRoot directory of the web server. For example, if the absolute path of the web server's DocumentRoot is /home/httpd/vhosts/wolosoft.com/httpdocs and the FTP root directory is /home/httpd/vhosts/wolosoft.com, then the remoteFile parameter should start with "httpdocs/". For example with "httpdocs/playlist.html" the file will be accessible with the URL http://www.wolosoft.com/playlist.html

Normally you can leave the localFile paramter as it is. But if you change it, make sure that the directory actually exists on the PC and that you replace any backslash characters in the file name by double-backslash, because that's required for JavaScript.

thank you for this piece of information wich you cannot find inside the help file in the demo version.

Re: Display Song on internet

Wolfgang, you should let people know about the whole file "FtpUpload.js", here I give a complete WORKING install of this file:

/*************************************************************************/
/* Configuration parameters */

var server = "ftp.xxxxxxx.com" // your FTP server name
var userName = "xxxxxx" // your FTP account
var password = "xxxxxx" // your FTP password

var localFile = "C:\\FtpUpload.html" // a temporary local file name
var remoteFile = "FtpUpload.html" // file name on the remote server

/*************************************************************************/

var currentSong = "";
var previousSong = "";
var nextSong = "";
var BLUE = 128*256*256;
var RED = 128;

// The Application::Shutdown event is fired on shutdown of Raduga
function Application::Shutdown()
{
if( ftp != null )
ftp.Close();
}

function Player::Start()
{
var playlist = Application.Playlist;

previousSong = currentSong;
currentSong = playlist.DisplayNameOf( Player.FileName )
