Ping and open file.
Posted: 29 May 2019 05:31
Hi I’m new to cmd.
I’m trying to make a ping script to check an icecast server. If online, open a stream file, If offline, try for X amount of times. Then revert to a local playlist file.
This is what I need it to do:
Open WAITING.m3u in Winamp.
(background waiting track playing)
Ping icecast server for source 30s
(Waiting for source connection)
IF PING SUCCESS - open LIVE.m3u
IF PING TIMES OUT - open Playlist.m3u
I’m not sure what to use for this, Cmd, powershell, VBscript ???
Thanks
