Autorouter updates (merged)

@achimha,

Strange… maybe that’s a cached image. It usually updates every 10-15 minutes. This is what I see on Firefox (and out of my office window) now:

Glenswinton, SW Scotland, United Kingdom
webcam near Glenforsa, UK

The geocoding algorithm has a “new world” bias. It comes from Google.

Hi Achim,

The Shoreham page serves a non-Flash stream if you set the user agent to something that doesn’t support Flash (Safari iOS for example). Not sure if that’s any help?

Interesting, now Glenswinton supplies a current image. I have added it. It did give a 2013 date stamp previously!

@stevelup: correct, it serves the stream directly but I still don’t see a way to get a still image.

A screenshot of the Shoreham EGKA webcam is obviously possible

but how that could be coded on a unix server I have no idea.

I am using Faststone screen capture which a masochist could automate and make it save to jpeg or png… like anything else “is possible”.

However I would want that webcam disabled 30 mins each side of the EOBT on any flight plan I file

This is absolutely filthy but works…

URL=`curl -s -e http://flybrighton.com/webcam http://live.streamdays.com/lm5ys309/iframe?t=%3D%3DAOwMjM0IDO2QTM | grep ipadUrl`
STREAM=`echo $URL | cut --delimiter=\' -f2`
ffmpeg -i "$STREAM" -vframes 1 out.png

You can say that again …

You can’t say I don’t deliver… I’m sure it could have all been done with a single regex.

Funny @stevelup, I’ve come up with roughly the same solution using ffmpeg. Added EGKA and EHTX (Texel).

Just be aware that the token changes all the time – you need to fetch the parent page (with the fake referrer) and dig in there for the token. I’m sure you already did that though…
