Cannot stream from a FTP server

[rlwebradio]

Hi

we're trying to stream an mp3 file located on a FTP server but.. no way.

Please take a look of di attached .jpg

We tried both adding the streaming to the playlist and scheduling a task. Both with and without ftp://.

Currently as walkaround we are using an FTP scheduler in order to schedule the task with the mp3 downloaded.

Please let us know.

Best

Hello!

Looks like your FTP server requires login/password for connection, so instead of

ftp://ogginellesale.radiocinema.it/ogginellesale_1.mp3

you should use syntax like:

ftp://login:password@ogginellesale.radiocinema.it/ogginellesale_1.mp3

Thank you!

Hi again,

http://aqpp.radiocinema.it/ogginellesale_1.mp3

I tried with the same syntax suggested by you last time but it doesn't work.

Thanks

This is difficult Now the site uses custom authorization scheme, and it won't allow to login using URL syntax.
For this situation, you should create custom script (using PHP for example) - it should call the authorization module first (http://aqpp.radiocinema.it/Rumpus.clogin) with required parameters, and then send the file... It's not easy, yes.
Another solution is to ask the server admin to provide standard HTTP authorization procedure.
