[FREE DOWNLOAD] [V2.0] "Now Playing" sync with Last.fm (cover/bio/lyrics/song...) - Airtime Hacks Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Younes Duret · Post edited by Younes Duret at 2016-01-09 14:50:21

Hello everyone!

I'm the founder of www.NessRadio.com
I spent hours developing the website of Ness Radio. I mainly focused on the player as it's an important element of any web radio. I use a script to sync the meta tags of any songs with last.fm database. So with just the "title" and "artist" infos of a track, this script will get the bio, link to buy, cover, lyrics, ...and more, directly from the database of Last.fm. The only thing you have to do is to creat a Last.fm API account and to edit config_now.php

[Update V2.0]

New: If last.fm can't find the album cover of the current song it will show a picture of the artist!

Fixed: Fixed many buggs and I simplified the script

I share this script today because sharing is a good feeling...
Link for download: http://www.nessradio.com/Now-Playing__2.0.zip

[INFOS]

This script works with Icecast 2.3.2 only

You need to set "allow_url_fopen = on" in your php.ini

Feel free to play with the script and share your result !

hoerich

thx, Younes!

Henry López del Pino

I'm reading the code and is nearly the same that we did in http://radio.arin.cl lol

You can generate a HTML file with cron to minimize PHP requests

Younes Duret

Hello Henry,
I would love to see your script to see how you manage to generate an HTML file with cron :)

Thumbs up for the code! I

You have to say your script is for icecast users only...

Albert FR

what said your apache error.log ?

Marton Szomolanyi

Not working for me, have the same problem: http://kandofm.tk/nowplaying/index_app.php

Can you help me?

Here's my apache2 error log.

Younes Duret

Hello everyone. The script is working because it's the one I use for my site :) www.NessRadio.com
If I look to your error log I can see that there is a problem with your config.php infos

You need those line to have no errors:

//your icecast server address, without the ending

//your radio's mount point, with the leading

//your last.fm API key, get from http://www.last.fm/api/account

Good luck

Marton Szomolanyi

I'll try to reconfigure everything, thank you.

Is this still working for everyone? It recently stopped working for me.

Roger Wilco

Last.fm is blocking it now? Or did they recently change their API?

Hello guys!
I noticed a PHP error when using PHP 5.4

Re-download the file

Most Wanted

Hello everyone!

I have done everything that is written here, but the player does not work

http://www.mostwantedradio.com/__Now-Playing__/index_app.php

my stream: http://72.46.136.154:7009/stream

please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

In konfig_now i wrote the following:

define (SERVER, 'http://72.46.136.154:7009');//your icecast server address, without the ending "/"

define (MOUNT, '/ stream'); // your radio's mount point, with the leading "/"

define (LAST_FM_API, '153d2ec73f111cf264bf9dec0dc8d3a6'); // your last.fm API key, get from http://www.last.fm/api/account

on my local apache server good work

on my web hosting no work

I put 0777 or 0666 on file and folder but no changes

2 test on different web hosting same problem

someone has an idea ?

Andy

Works not with Icecast 2.4.2

Younes Duret

Yep never tried it with 2.4.2 but just 2.3.2 :/

But I'm sure you can find a solution... If the info added in config_now.php are good you should be able to find the solution. The function that get the Info of the Icecast stream is "getStreamInfo" line 41 in icecast.php file... by tweaking this function you should be able to make it work :)

Good luck and let us know :)

Andy

ok, but i have no idea, im not a developer :D
