Radio: asx files with multiple entries

Symphy · 2007-08-25, 23:28

Hi there,

When an asx file with multiple entries is placed in the radio stream folder, it is not possible to select a stream. Instead it just connects to the first stream listed in the file.
pls files however with multiple entries are handled as expected.
Is this a bug or am i supposed to use only single-entry files?

Greetings Symphy

We use the BASS inbuilt handling of asx files and this plays only the first entry in an asx file.
Most of the ASX files i've seen so far contain anyhow only alternate urls for the same stream, therefor it makes no sense to parse them to get the individual urls.

Ok, thanx. Now that i think of it, a folder structure is a much better way to organise things anyway.
