Sending Album Art from RadioDJ to Webserver

[pfoole2012]

Howdy.

For starters, I'm totally unfamiliar with the PHP world. My problem is difficult to describe.

Anyway, I used Marci for Shoutcast in order to display album art on my website. Problem is, I had to manually upload exact matches as Marci pulled totally weird stuff 9 out of 10 times.

I'd like to send album art from RadioDJ to my website. I read the tutorial Capt. Fuzzy put together; however, once I upload the album art and files to the server, I'm unsure how I would go about getting the Now Playing info to show up on my site. Does this involve HTML code that pulls from the folder I stuffed the files and images in?

Help!

Thanks.

Firstly you'd need your album art on your webserver so you'd need to FTP the folder up to where your website is.
Then you need server side scripting to get the song info eg: php / javascript.
With RadioDJ you can get the current song info from the history table...
Use an SQL Query and gather the information into variables

Code Select Expand

$query = ($conn, "SELECT * FROM `history` WHERE `song_type`='0' ORDER BY `date_played` DESC LIMIT 1");
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($query, MYSQLI_ASSOC)){
$artist = $row["artist"];
$title = $row["title"];
$image = $row["image"];
}
etc etc etc

Then with php you echo out where in your page you want to display the info

<?php echo $artist; ?>

<img src="<?php echo $image; ?>" />
