Zapni.TV: make batch file with Zapni.TV channels for opening in VLC

Hello I would like to know how to make a php script for Zapni.tv channels. They use http for streaming with tickets. Here is an example: _www.zapni.tv/play.php?id=240 . My purpose is to make a batchfile with those channels.

I tried with that but it's not opening VLC in batchfile.

Quote:

<?php

$ch = curl_init("http://www.zapni.tv/play.php?id=240");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$page = curl_exec($ch);

preg_match_all('/(http):\/\/(www\.zapni\.tv\/stream\/vlc\.php)\?(.*)/', $page, $matches);

foreach($matches[0] as $v)
{
echo strip_tags($v) . "<br />";
}

?>

Thanks for help.

is the above posted code fragment your whole script? i can't see where are you even launching vlc? here is the full script which will work with vlc streams available on the site.

Code:

<?php

  echo "KSV ZapniTV Downloader\n";

  $format = "%-8s : %s\n";

  function runAsync($command)

    {

      $WshShell = new COM("WScript.Shell");

      $oExec    = $WshShell->Run($command, 1, false);

      unset($WshShell, $oExec);

    }



  if ($argc <= 1)

    {

      echo "Enter URL : ";

      $url = trim(fgets(STDIN));

    }

  else

      $url = $argv[1];

  echo "Retrieving html . . .\n";

  $html = file_get_contents($url);

  preg_match('/<a.*?>(.*?[vlc|vlc_2].php.*?)<\/a>/i', $html, $links);



  if (file_exists("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe"))

      $vlc = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe";

  else

      $vlc = "C:\\Program Files\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe";

  if (isset($links[1]))

    {

      $command = "\"$vlc\" \"$links[1]\"";

      printf($format, "Command", $command);

      runAsync($command);

    }

  echo "Finished.\n";

?>

No I found this script on this website and I launched vlc in batchfile.

So my command was like that :

Code:

%php% ZapniTV.php

curl "http://www.zapni.tv/play.php?id=240" | %vlc% -

It gave me latest http address but without opening VLC.
So I replaced my script with yours in file ZapniTV.php.
When i launch this command :

Code:

call %php% ZapniTV.php

it asks me to give http address and I have to copy and paste link. After 30 seconds it stops. Is it possible to automatize stream launching because copy/paste isn't very interesting for batchfile. ;-)

in batch file the following command works for me without explicitly asking for url. my script doesn't create any junk file.

Code:

call php ZapniTV.php "http://zapni.tv/play.php?id=240"
