[Playlist] RE: Does this playlist app exist yet? (Malin TV)

Sat Aug 26 14:32:44 UTC 2006

Nathan,

The clients would periodically check for a changed feed.  On finding one,
they would download the playlist as rss enclosure.  This playlist would
supersede existing playlists, or instruct about which of several playlists
should be played (guess the first is simplest).

The playlist would then look in a set location for the media files it needs.
If the client has media items locally, it will queue them; for media items
it does not have locally it will look for them on a remote server and
download them.  When the clienet has all the media it needs for that
playlist, it would play the list.

Does that sound do-able?

Thanks for your thoughts,

Dave

Hi,

Lucas Gonze suggested I post this.

I'd like to have pc clients in different locations use rss to get playlists
from a server sequencing media files to be played, some of which will
already be downloaded and some of which need to be fetched.  

Does anyone know of an app that can do this?  Maybe somebody has implemented
Xspf for this?  

If it doesn't exist, is anybody interested in writing one?  

Thanks very much for your attention.

Dave

Dave,

You want XSPF playlists delivered as RSS enclosures? One feed providing
multiple playlists? Then what would the app do, cycle through the playlists
just like you might play through all the episodes in a podcast?

It would be very easy to extend my open-source app ION to do this
(http://ion.dev.java.net), as we have both an extensible feed-type handler
and media/enclosure handler.

Best,
   Nathan

Hello!

These four links in the Version 1 document
(http://www.xspf.org/xspf-v1.html) are broken:

<a href="#http://gbiv.com/protocols/uri/rev-2002/rfc2396bis.html">
<a href="#http://www.w3.org/TR/uri-clarification/">
<a href="#http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#dateTime">
<a href="#http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3023.txt">

I guess the "#" comes from a mass replacement.

Regards, Sebastian

Hello!

Sorry if I am wrong about all this but I think I have
found a real problem here:

As it seems to me all URIs from XSPF-0 have been replaced by
URL or URN in Version 1.

If this change in the specification is intended I suggest to
* add an entry to "Differences between version 0 and version 1"
* fix the testcases, that fail although they are said to pass
* rename the URI testcases for Version 1 to URL/URN

If this break of backward-compatibility was introduced
by mistake I suggest to
* fix the Version 1 spec
* fix the testcase with the broken URN

This problem possibly affects all current XSPF-1 implementations
especially those built on the official test suite. So finding a
solution to this inconsistency is quite important and urgent
in my eyes.

Would be great to have feedback on this soon so I can continue
working on my parser.

Regards, Sebastian
