Question
Love the program.
Been writing plugins for the WD using PHP and for live streams they need to be fired from an external proxy as the WD does not have enough horse power to transcode on its own.
Is it possible using groovy to scrape a web page and create menus, allow the user to drill down a level that will scrape another web page and so on until it finally retrieves the url to actually play the file?
Example
ABC 1 Top Level
all programs Second level
Get show variable and play Third level.
The scraping targets could be a combination of HTML, XML and Jason.
If it is possible, could someone point me to a plugin that is currently doing this so i can review the code.
Thanks in advance.
