Got a MAS player or Delfina Flipper? This is for you.
« on: July 05, 2003, 11:53:07 AM »
Hi,

I write a HTTP/Shoutcast MPEG streamer called (rather creatively)
Streamer. Yesterday, I added some support for MHI drivers for MAS
players and Delfina Flipper (via MHI mpeg.device). Since I don't have
this hardware, I'd like some brave individuals to try it and see if it
works!

Are you up for it?

Grab the new version of Streamer:

Please write back and tell me how it goes!

Hi Dragster,

One little usage tip:  

  Streamer doesn't get the playlist file (pls) from the website. If
you config. your web browser for streamer, then type the URL in the
web browser, it will play. Or you could use a download program like
HTTPGET to get the playlist file, then launch Streamer and tell it to
play that.

  New, from the menu, is for playing an MP3 directly from a web
server, like http://www.server.com/something.mp3

  Maybe I'll have streamer go and get the pls file in a future
version! A good idea, I think! ;-)

  I have a question for you: Doesn't the Flipper H/W play through the
sound card, or does it go through AHI again? The AHI stuff in streamer
prefs is only for the mpega.library player. I don't tell the MHI
interface anything except which library to use. I'm not sure how MHI
works.

Grud!

I hate when something like this happens! I guess it wouldn't be too
hard to switch it to mpega.library if the bitrate is too low. This
kinda negates my efforts as I don't think there are too many Amigas
with HW decoders AND broadband/ISDN!!
