synopsis
Xopr needed a quick way of 'zapping' through the streams of the 30C3 congress (also see no nerd left behind), so he wrote a remote control for his OpenELEC (XBMC, but it might work on RaspBMC as well) to open a predefined stream with one keypress from within a console:
CCC OPENELEC remote 1. Room one 2. Room two 4. Room G 6. Room six x. exit l. Language q. Quality Input(n:hq): _
code
It's a bash script and uses approximately 20x10 characters so you can place it next to your stream schedule
#!/bin/bash # IP address of Raspbian/OPENELEC/XBMC box IP=192.168.2.11 # Base stream url where [KEY] and [LANG] are replaced STREAM=rtmp://rtmp.streaming.media.ccc.de:1935/stream/saal[KEY]_[LANG]_[QUALITY] LANG=native MENU_LANG=n QUALITY=hq MENU_QUALITY=hq # ld hq hd ############### if [[ $* == -h || $* == -? || $* == --help ]]; then echo -e "\tusage: $0\n\n\twill trigger openelec links for ccc\n" exit 0 fi # print menu and save cursor (menu including input is 20x10 chars) echo -en "CCC OPENELEC remote\n\n1.
