Statusbar>http?

[Threetimes]

Hi

I want a web page via the HTTP-interface that displays the contents of the statusbar.


Maybe something like this?

Code: Select all

<vlc id="value" param1="long_title" />

or

Code: Select all

<vlc id="value" param1="full_name" />

you can find some info on this page : http://www.videolan.org/doc/vlc-user-guide/en/ch05.html

if you know things about RPN, it would be great if you could add a page to the Wiki as theres nothing about RPN for the moment.

I found it!

I started looking in the default web pages, an i found out that it loaded requests/playlist.xml so i toke a look there.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="<vlc id="value" param1="charset"/>" standalone="yes" ?>
<vlc id="if" param1="0"/>
<!-- copyright and stuff... -->
<vlc id="end"/>

<vlc id="rpn" param1="first_item 0 store" />
<vlc id="rpn" param1="last_depth 0 store" />
<vlc id="foreach" param1="pl" param2="playlist" />
  <vlc id="if" param1="pl.depth value last_depth value <" />
    <vlc id="rpn" param1="pl.depth value ':' last_depth value 1 - ':' 1 strcat strcat strcat strcat" />
    <vlc id="foreach" param1="the_final_countdown" param2="integer" />
</node>
    <vlc id="end" />
  <vlc id="end" />
  <vlc id="if" param1="pl.type value 'Node' strcmp" />
    <vlc id="rpn" param1="1 +" />
<leaf id="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.index" />" <vlc id="if" param1="pl.current" /> current="current" <vlc id="end" /> uri="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.uri value '&' '&' str_replace" />" name="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.name value '&' '&' str_replace" />" ro="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.ro" />" duration="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.duration" />" />
  <vlc id="else" />
<node id="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.index" />" name="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.name value '&' '&' str_replace" />" ro="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.ro" />" >
    <vlc id="if" param1="first_item value 0 ="/>
      <vlc id="rpn" param1="first_item 1 store" />
    <vlc id="end"/>
    <vlc id="if" param1="pl.i_children 0 !=" />

    <vlc id="else" />
</node>
    <vlc id="end" />
  <vlc id="end" />
  <vlc id="rpn" param1="last_depth pl.depth value store" />
<vlc id="end" />
<vlc id="rpn" param1="0 ':' last_depth value 1 - ':' 1 strcat strcat strcat strcat" />
<vlc id="foreach" param1="the_final_countdown" param2="integer" />
</node>
<vlc id="end" />

(unwanted and wanted output)

I removed the red parts and changed the blue part:

I dont want xml, but just plain text.
Also I only want the name of the item.

<leaf id="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.index" />" <vlc id="if" param1="pl.current" /> current="current" <vlc id="end" /> uri="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.uri value '&' '&' str_replace" />" name="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.name value '&' '&' str_replace" />" ro="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.ro" />" duration="<vlc id="value" param1="pl.duration" />" />

Since I only want the current item, I put the whole line between [if pl.current]

<vlc id="if" param1="pl.current" /><vlc id="end" /><vlc id="value" param1="pl.name value" /><vlc id="end" />

Now just remove all line endings and unnecessary spaces and you're done!

Now I can see what track I'm listening in Samurize .
