possible to auto-retry after access denied? #626

Closed akariley closed 6 years ago

Stupid...enter should not auto-submit a blank entry... Anyway, can you auto-retry the current station after an access denied?

Sorry for the delay. I’m not sure automatic retries are appropriate here. A retry usually fails as well (c.f. your paste) and there’s no way of knowing how long the error persists i.e. how long pianobar should wait between retries. Also I’m not sure what causes the error.

Normally it rarely happens, but I can increase the chances if I interrupt via ctrl+c while retrieving playlist takes too long.

Also, 4 days is not that long of a delay. No worries! :)

Also, it rarely / never happens on any station but thumbprint radio. I'm wondering if it's running out of suggestions and errors out?

Hi, I would also like to have a retry if the network fails to connect. Is there a way to do this through the eventcmd? Can I detect a particular network error event then wait a set time in the script and then restart pianobar?

libcurl’s return code and error text are available to your script. Check the wRet and wRetStr keys. You can certainly restart pianobar, but retrying a particular operation won’t be easy.
