Free news feed software for linux

News Streamer provides a script to play the most recent France 2 news report with Mplayer.

The French TV station France 2 has been kind enough to make its news broadcasts available on the Internet. However, this has been done in a way thats not particularly friendly to non-Microsoft products.

This script makes things easier by checking for the availability of the most recent news report and then playing it using Mplayer.

The checking for the availability of an episode is done using a mmsrip.

If its useful to you to watch the news at a different speed, a speed parameter may be passed to this script (eg f2 0.5 to play at half speed)

If the most recent episode is not available, this script will keep searching back until it finds the most recent available episode.

It wont keep searching for ever, however, and gives up after 10 episodes.

To be honest, if it doesnt find anything after 10 episodes it probably means that theres a problem at their end, theyve change their URL format, or youve got some kind of network trouble.

How the script works
As the admin you can write new articles and list, edit, delete and search in existing ones.
News script features a WYSIWYG editor that gives you full control over the format of an article. JavaScript is required, though. The script allows you to choose an article date and the date when the article is to be published.
The title of an article appears as part of the URL which is good for search engine optimization. In case your server supports mod_rewrite the article URL looks like a normal URL of an HTML page.
On the front end the visitor will be provided with a list of published articles. As admin you can set the number of articles per page which results in several result pages which can be browsed by the visitor.
