A PHP script that will play random mp3s from a specified directory. This script has -only- been tested with the following configuration: Winamp 5.02, PHP 5.0.2, Apache 1.3.29. It may or may not work on other config, and as with much of the code here, is pretty much a proof-of-concept rather than a neatly packaged-up application.It is customisable, and may work with other media players. (though winamp is the best) it is designed for internal network use ONLY, and if placed online, may compromise the security and/or stability of your webserver.
and yes, you can achieve all of it’s functionality using winamp’s internal ‘randomise list’ or ‘shuffle’ features. the idea is that you might not want to load a 40000 track playlist into winamp every time you want a random track.
