[Plugin] ICY Stream Titles

mrvica · Oct 13th 2024

while listening to IPTV Radios this plugin displays Artist amd Title, we have this already in infobar showing now/next, this works only with gstreamer, this plugin works with exteplayer too or you may start it from plugin if you put it on a hotkey

Some "how to install and use" would be helpful.

mrvica · Oct 15th 2024

if someone can make the .ipk file quickly and put it here! from the channel selection start an iptv radio service and afterwards the plugin, that is all, on the screen you will see artist an title, with ok you can hide and show the screen and with ch+/ch- you can switch to another service,, the titles are updated every 15 secs unless you do it with ok key, there are plugins that have stream titles like HDF Radio and others, this one is just simple

this line is missing, gives error, global name meta_byte not defined, maybe just forgotten

meta_byte = stream.read(1)

ok!

mrvica · Oct 16th 2024

it doesn´t work on OpenATV py3, the code needs some changes

error a bytes-like object is required not 'str'

#meta_data = meta_data.split("StreamTitle='")[1].split("';")[0]

meta_data = meta_data.split(b"StreamTitle='")[1].split(b"';")[0]

and to get rid of prefix b'

#self["icy_title"].setText(str(service_name) + "\n\n" + str(meta_data))

self["icy_title"].setText(str(service_name) + "\n\n" + str(meta_data)[2:-1])

IF REQUIRED OBJECT AND NO T STR.. WHY YOU STR TYPE DATA?

mrvica · Oct 17th 2024

are we talking about the same thing? did you update your code once more? I tried it on ATV 7.3 and I got error, did someone else try it on ATV? about the code snippet, I don´t know the better solution how to fix it, not the right way but works

**Lululla** · Oct 17th 2024

no no,

I was wondering why the error occurred because str on tuple and str on txt are different..

Ok try this

mrvica · Oct 17th 2024

no, Error: a bytes-like object is required not 'str', my old code with the snippet ok, seems Python 3.9 (PLi) and 3.12 (ATV) is not the same

unpleasant side effect, the non-printable chars are displayed as hex string \x... and I don´t know how to fix it, on python 2.7 (PLI 8.3) everything is fine

**Lululla** · Oct 17th 2024

I had already warned you about this before but you obviously meant something else.

In Python 2, strings are treated as bytes by default, while in Python 3 you need to explicitly convert between bytes and strings.

no bad feelings!, yeh, your latest code works on ATV 7.3, on PLi 8.3 (py2) I get error, see atached picture, PLi 9 I can´t test at the moment.

mrvica · Nov 12th 2024

this version works both on py2/py3, I could fix that with non printable chars
