I have an HTTPProvider that will be called every minute to grab some information about a specific stream. Is there anyway (similar to the answer given here: server side code get metadata of a live stream) to retrieve this information at any time, without listening for it? Essentially I need to do this with only the VHost or Stream object from the HTTPProvider.
This is the type of data I need:
{Obj[]: author: "", copyright: "", description: "", keywords: "", rating: "", title: "", presetname: "Custom", creationdate: "Wed Mar 23 16:53:06 2011
", videodevice: "Video1", framerate: 15.0, width: 320.0, height: 240.0, videocodecid: "avc1", videodatarate: 500.0, avclevel: 31.0, avcprofile: 66.0, videokeyframe_frequency: 5.0}
