[Icecast-dev] Listener stats

[Jordan Erickson]

Hi Reaz,

"Too much work"

"I should be able to get"

"This should be easy"

...

Feel free to learn the software you're using....or not.

Please refrain from these kinds of remarks though as they don't motivate
us to help you very much. Just my personal opinion.


Cheers,
Jordan Erickson

The reason I need this is to show current listeners and from where they are listening. I do this with the other streaming software without any modifications or adjustments. This should be easy.

I can get the IP from the web interface at this location, http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8000/admin/listclients.xsl?mount=/dhantal, but that means I would have to scrape the web interface which I don't want to do.

I can get listener count but I’m looking for location through the IP. I need to write a php script to gather this information. I have checked the status-Jason.xsl and the xml2json.xsl but neither gives me that information.
