Is it possible to use urls as a playlist?
Radio1 streams realaudio, but the url for the actual audio changes, what
remains constant is the playlist url
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/realaudio/media/r1live.ram
which when used as a playlist to mplayer will retrieve the url of the
correct stream, and play correctly.
i.e.
<playlist title="radio1" random="0">
<cover-img>http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/webcam/images/live/webcam.jpg</cover-img>
<url>http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/realaudio/media/r1live.ram</url>
</playlist>

> Besides the <folder> and the <skin> stuff, we have tags that create

> file. To support that, there is now a file called fxditem.py. It has
> the same interface as [video|audio|image|games]/__init__.py
> (cwd,update) and has it's own register function: you can register a
> handler for parsing items out of an fxd to this module. Everytime a
> fxd is parsed in a directory, the handlers will be called. Two
> handlers are right now in Freevo: video/fxdhandler.py for the <movie>
> and <disc-set> tags and a small handler for <audio> in
> audio/__init__.py. Advantage: everyone can register handlers for tags
> to the fxditem. E.g a plugin could create it's own tag to create it's
> own items from it. The plugin only registers a handler and that's it.

> Future plans:

> To test how easy the interface is, I want to add the following three
> handlers (reading and creating fxd items only):

> playlist.py:
> <playlist title="foo" random="0">
> <cover-img>image.jpg</cover-img>
> <file>foo.mpg</file>
> <directory recursive=1>bar</directory>
> </playlist>
>
> image/__init__.py:
> <slideshow title="foo">
> <cover-img>image.jpg</cover-img>
> <background-music>
> <file|directory>use the playlist.py parser here</>
> </background-music>
> <images>
> <file duration="20">file.jpg</file>
> <more or less also a playlist.py parser>
> </images>
> </slideshow>
>
> fxditem.py
> <container>
> <all registered tags>
> </container>
>
> What's the container? Only an extra item for the items in it. If you
> put a some containers into a container and in this a list of audio
> tags, you get the same structure web radio has (without a plugin, you
> get it for free based on the new system).
