Here’s an interesting request.

I have discovered in my travels that is is possible to stream individual songs from Firefly to a local player using the a URL like this.

<a href="http://http:///rsp/stream/”>http:///rsp/stream/

For those of us who have FLACs and OGGs (that cant be played in Flash) would it be possible to include a function that creates a playlist using these URLs from the current songlist (or even individual songs) that can be downloaded into a local player?

It could be available from a simple link above or below the songlist or even available by right click from a song.

An XSPF (XML Playlist) option would be good as it can contain song info as well.

Thanks

Interesting as you said. I could build that XML at the same time as I populate the song list. I don’t know if it’s possible to save it to disk though, Flash is kind of picky on that. But if I can set it’s MIME to application/xspf+xml perhaps it would open up in the player of your choice directly and you can save it from there. I’ll make a test.
