Thanks - that was the route I was going down and I found similar code in
Slim/Plugin/RemoteLibrary/ProtocolHandler.pm
My version in my timer return code is now something like this - and it
works
Code:
--------------------
sub timerReturn {
my ( $client, $url ) = @_;
my $station = &matchStation( $url );
my $song = $client->playingSong();
my $playingURL = "";
if ( $song && $song->streamUrl ) { $playingURL = $song->streamUrl}
if ($playingURL ne $url){
# Given stream URL not the same now as we had before implies
listener has changed station
main::DEBUGLOG && $log->is_debug && $log->debug("$station -
timerReturn - stream changed to $playingURL");
# However, it might be an alternative that leads to the same
station (redirects) or another in the family so check
$station = &matchStation( $playingURL );
} else {
# If streamUrl not found then something is odd - so report it
to help determine issue
if (!$song || !$song->streamUrl || !$song->streamUrl ne ""){
# Odd?
main::DEBUGLOG && $log->is_debug &&
$log->debug("$station - timerReturn - streamUrl issue $playingURL");
}
}
if ($station ne "") {#One of mine so check for isPlaying and action it
...} else { # not mine - log it }
--------------------
Odd thing is that none of the debug lines come out if switching from
streaming to playing local music - so I assume that the core code does a
killTimers in that situation.
