Ok - that's more complicated than I was hoping. bpa wrote: > If JSON feeds are only going to work for a short time - is it worth the > effort ? It would be better to spend time on a more durable solution. If "durable" = "screen scraping", that's an interesting use of the word. What I'm wondering is if JSON will last until Nitro is the alternative, assuming it ever is allowed out to the public. You said earlier that Nitro didn't currently seem viable. Was that because of problems with privately assigned keys in an open source application (or some other specific issue your investigation turned up) or because you don't think a public release is on the horizon?
You probably have a better idea of a) how long the JSON extension is likely to last and b) whether the promises of public access to Nitro will ever come to fruition, assuming that would help. If not, the question is whether a few months (maybe longer?) of avoiding the probable instability of playing catchup to iPlayer web page changes (if that is the durable solution) be worth it - but you've already indicated you don't think that is the case. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BobSammers's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66026 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72709 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
