Add Icecast Support to libsoup
Last modified: 2007-12-07 15:25:16 UTC
I'd like to be able to talk to an Icecast server using libsoup. Icecast uses a protocol which is very close to HTTP. I'd like to see this in libsoup as Icecast uses http:// uris and although the protocol isn't 100% HTTP, libsoup should be able to handle it. Right now, I'm working on a patch.
Sure, I'm happy to take the patch. It looks like the protocol difference is tiny, and it's probably not worth wasting any API over; just make it accept "ICY" in addition to "HTTP" at the appropriate place in the response parsing code, with a comment explaining why. And add a test to tests/header-parsing.c.
dup filed with a patch, so I'm marking this a dup of that *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 502325 ***
