Phonon and the meta interval

**huilui** · 16th November 2009, 00:54

Hello,

While programming a RadioRipper in c++ with Qt4 I've problems to access the meta informations of radio streams, i.e. I don't know how to get them.

While ripping them (I use streamripper) it isn't any problem, because streamripper gets the information I want (artist, title) somehow. But I want to implement the function to simply play streams without recording them...

Of course, I tried to get the information through "QMap<QString,QString> metaData = musikplayer->metaData()" and analysed the QMap, but I get only general information about the stream (such as audio-codec, bitrate, organization, etc.)... I searched the FAQ of streamripper, and there it's written about the meta interval, i.e. the meta information is sent in a specific interval, varying from stream to stream...

How can I access with Phonon these information, or at all is it possible?

Thanks for every help :-)
