Re: scanUrl not being called

I know have it working ... but will have to go back through the steps to
see if this really was the solution ....

I added


Code:
--------------------
    sub getFormatForURL { 'aac' }
--------------------


Daft thing is that the 
Slim::Utils::Scanner::Remote::readRemoteHeaders
had already worked out that it was aac from its connection to the remote
server

and it knew it later as well ...

Code:
--------------------
    Slim::Utils::Scanner::Remote::parseAACHeader (714) AAC samplerate: 44100
--------------------


but then it goes on to call Song::open ... and seems to have forgotten
all that it knew

Code:
--------------------
    Slim::Player::Song::getNextSong (223) myplugin://test
--------------------

I then pass it back the new URL ... and it goes on to


Code:
--------------------
    Slim::Player::Song::open (360) myplugin://test
--------------------


and then

Code:
--------------------
    Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand2 (490) Error: Didn't find any command matches for type: unk
  Slim::Player::Song::open (415) Error: Couldn't create command line for unk playback for [myplugin://test]
  
--------------------


So ... given that it determined that the type was "unk" I saw that I
could return a type via getFormatForURL ...
and it works ... including the PH being shown rather than the real
remote stream URL.

Seems not to remember what it had already discovered - but anyway ... it
works.

Now I need to change my sub getFormatForURL to return the real format
since I know it can also be mp3.
