Thanks!

If you mean the database with the radiostations in it, well, Alex (the developer of Streamwriter) delivered a database to start with and we (the users of Streamwriter) augmented it by entering new radiostation urls in the URL field. If a connection could be built up to the station and the program could successfully record the stream, the stream url would be stored in the database.
I hope that helps.
Greetings and have fun using Streamwriter.

all streams are received by streamWriter from the streamWriter-Server that is connected to a database, so it is not connected to external sources. The streams are user-supplied, that means if you try to connect to an unknown stream, it will be checked by the server and eventually get added to that database.
Why do you ask?
Edit: Damn, too late. I should implement something that say's "are you sure you want to post, somebody else has posted in the meantime"..

I want to know if it is possible to use your database to integrate it in a media player program.
I want to listen to radiostations in that media program and I think the database of streamwriter is perfect for that.
Please let me know if something like that is possible.

Keep in mind that my server runs automatic checks for streams, so if a stream is down, it get's removed from the database. If you want to access the database using HTTP, I could also explain how to do that.

Thanks for your file, I hope it will work! I will let you know I if want access to the database using HTTP but I first try to work with your dump.

If possible I want to access the database of streamwriter using HTTP. Would you explain me how to do that.
Thanks!

I don't have much time at the moment but this should help you. Just open a connection to streamwriter.org on port 80. Send the following for example:
POST /en/streamdb/getstreams/ HTTP/1.1
Host: streamwriter.org
Accept: */*
Connection: close
Content-Length: 297 (this could be wrong because the forum might reformat my post, so some bytes can get lost)
data=<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<request>
<header>
<version>3</version>
<type>getstreams</type>
</header>
<data>
<count>17</count>
<offset>42</offset>
<search />
<genre />
<kbps>32</kbps>
</data>
</request>
Then just look at the response for yourself. You will receive 17 streams, beginning from stream number 42 at the database level. Only streams with kbps>=32 will be sent, the genre and search-term are ignored because the request above does not specify them. If you use this in an application, please tell me about it. It's not because I have a problem with other applications accessing my database, it's because streamWriter itself does not use the HTTP-interface anymore and when somebody else uses it I need to know it so that it does not get disabled someday in the future.

Problem könnte gewesen sein, dass dein streamWriter den Stream gemeldet hat und der Server bei diesem Mal nicht verbinden konnte oder sowas. streamWriter bei dir merkt sich "Stream XY habe ich schon bekanntgemacht, nicht nochmal schicken" - dann kannst du ihn so oft wie du willst aufnehmen, er wird nicht mehr abgeschickt.
Edit: Nochmal geguckt. Der Stream wird vom Server immer in die Datenbank aufgenommen. Ganz sicher, dass der Stream schon aktiv am Aufnehmen/Abspielen war? Wenn man ihn z.B. der Liste hinzufügt und sofort die Aufnahme beendet (streamWriter empfängt keine Daten vom Stream) dann wird er dem Server auch nicht mitgeteilt. Ansonsten bin ich erstmal überfragt und wir sollten das Thema vergessen
LG,
