Authorizing GNSDK Applications
Gracenote manages access to metadata using a combination of product licensing and server-side metadata entitlements.
As a Gracenote customer, Gracenote works with you to determine the kind of products you need (such as MusicID, Playlist, and so on). Gracenote also determines the kind and extent of metadata your application requires for the products you license.
Gracenote uses all of this information to create a unique customer ID (called a client ID), a license file, and server-side metadata entitlements that are tailored to your application goals.
When developing a GNSDK application, you must include a client ID and license file to authorize your application with Gracenote. In general, the License file enables your application to use the Gracenote products (and their corresponding GNSDK modules) that you purchased. The client ID is used by Gracenote Media Services to enable access to the metadata your application is entitled to use.
All client IDs are entitled to a set of core metadata based on the products that are licensed. Your application can access enriched metadata through server-side metadata entitlements. Contact your Gracenote representative for more information.
Some applications require a local (embedded) database for metadata. These systems do not access Gracenote Media Services to validate metadata entitlements and access metadata. Instead, metadata entitlements are pre-applied to the local database.
License Files
Gracenote provides a license file along with your client ID. The license file notifies Gracenote to enable the GNSDK products you purchased for your application. License file information is provided to gnsdk_manager_initialize() when initializing the GNSDK. Below is an example license file, showing enabled and disabled Gracenote products for Customer A. These products generally map to corresponding GNSDK modules.
-- BEGIN LICENSE v1.0 ABC123XYZ -- licensee: Gracenote, Inc. name: CustomerA notes: [CustomerA Account#] client_id: 999999 musicid_text: enabled musicid_cd: enabled playlist: enabled local_images: enabled local_mood: enabled -- SIGNATURE ABC123XYZ -- ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890abcedefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz -- END LICENSE ABC123XYZ --
Client IDs
Each GNSDK customer receives a unique client ID/Tag string from Gracenote. This string uniquely identifies each application to Gracenote Media Services and lets Gracenote deliver the specific metadata the application requires.
A Client ID/Tag string consists of two sets of numbers separated with a hyphen. The number before the hyphen is considered the 'ID' and the number after, the 'Tag'. A client ID/Tag string has the following format:
<10 character client ID>-<17 character client ID tag>
When registering a new User with gnsdk_manager_user_register(), you must pass in the client ID and client ID tag as separate parameters. To create a user handle, use the serialized data created during registering, plus the client ID tag with the function gnsdk_manager_user_create().
It is best practice to save the serialized user data, created during registration, to a file, and then to use the content of that file for later creations of user handles.
For more information see the section Users.
Users
To perform queries, an application must first register a new User and get its handle. A User represents an individual installation of a specific client ID/Tag string. This ensures that each application instance is receiving all required metadata entitlements.
Users are represented in GNSDK by User handles. You can create a User handle using gnsdk_manager_user_register() and gnsdk_manager_user_create().
When creating a new User with gnsdk_manager_user_create(), you must pass in the serialized user string created with gnsdk_manager_user_register() and the client ID tag. For more information about client IDs and client ID tags, see Client IDs.
Each application installation should only request a new User once and store the serialized representation of the User for future use. If an application registers a new User on every use instead of storing a serialized User, then the User quota maintained for the client ID is quickly exhausted. Once the quota is reached, attempting to create new Users will fail. If an application uses a single User registration across multiple installations of the application—in short, forcing all the installations to use the same User—the application risks exhausting Gracenote per-user query quota.
To maintain an accurate usage profile of your application, and to ensure that the services you are entitled to are not being used unintentionally, your application should register new Users only when needed, and then store that User for future queries.
To store users once they are created, you specify a callback function that the SDK calls when a User handle needs to be stored locally. To specify the callback, use gnsdk_manager_user_set_autoregister() and pass to it the associated client_ID.
The SDK triggers the callback function when a change to the User handle occurs. Applications should store serialized User data at a location that can persist between application launches (for example, local file storage). In the callback, you save the user data to persistent storage. This simplifies handling of user data, and ensures data storage occurs at appropriate times.
The callback also allows an application to register a new user in offline mode and then register it for online use during the first online query. In this instance, the callback is triggered after the online query is performed.
Basic User management process:
- First application run: register new User and get serialized string.
- Create the user handle from serialized user string and client ID.
- Specify a callback function to handle User storage and registration.
- Provide User handle to GNSDK APIs that require one.
- Release User handle when finished.
- Subsequent application runs: create User handle from stored serialized data.
For example:
gnsdk_user_handle_t user_hdl = GNSDK_NULL; // User handle gnsdk_str_t ser_str = GNSDK_NULL; // Serialized user string /* Create serialized user string */ gnsdk_manager_user_register(GNSDK_USER_REGISTER_MODE_ONLINE, client_id, client_id_tag, client_app_version, &ser_str); /* Call API to register and create new user. This API takes a serialized user string ('ser_str') (either created new or retrieved from storage and creates a non-serialized user handle in 'user_hdl' */ gnsdk_manager_user_create(ser_str, client_id, &user_hdl); /* Register callback function to store serialized user data */ gnsdk_manager_user_set_autoregister(user_hdl, _user_store_callback, &callback_data); /* Perform queries */ /* ... */ /* Release user */ error = gnsdk_manager_user_release(user_hdl); /* Close GNSDK */ /* callback function */ static void _user_store_callback(gnsdk_void_t* callback_data, gnsdk_cstr_t serialized_user) { /* Code to store serialized user string for later reuse. */ save_serialized_user_data(serialized_user); /* NOT a Gracenote API */ }


If you've been wondering what could have prompted that recent declaration from Liam Neeson that he's ready to give up movies altogether, the answer is now playing at a cineplex near you. It's called "The Haunting," and it's so thoroughly misguided and muddled Dreamworks, the studio foisting this bomb on the public, ought to hire a special corps of ushers to hand out sympathy cards to patrons as they exit the theater.
This is the second time Hollywood has tackled Shirley Jackson's book "The Haunting of Hill House." It was previously filmed by director Robert Wise in 1963 -- that version was also titled "The Haunting" -- with Julie Harris, Claire Bloom and Richard Johnson. The 1963 "Haunting" remains one of the eeriest ghost stories ever filmed; though Wise never showed a single spirit, he and his cast created such an overpowering atmosphere of menace the movie is still potent today.
The current "Haunting" comes from director Jan de Bont ("Twister," "Speed"), who is better known as a master of disaster and an orchestrator of special effects than as a craftsman capable of creating a mood piece. Thus, this version is chock-full of computer-generated ghouls and bone-shaking digital stereo cacophony, none of which makes the movie in any way frightening or even particularly interesting.
The difference between the two "Haunting"s is literally spelled out. In the Wise film, a creepy message is found scrawled across a wall in chalk. In de Bont's film, a similiar sentiment is painted in blood. Everything in this "Haunting" is louder, more elaborate and far sillier than anything in the original.
David Self's choppy screenplay introduces Dr. Marrow (Neeson) who has recruited a trio of subjects for a little experiment in terror, scheduled to take place in Hill House, a cavernous estate full of dark secrets.  The only thing these three have in common is insomnia, and they've been lured to Dr. Marrow by the promise of big bucks for participating in a research study.
But Dr. Marrow is more concerned with observing the mechanics of fear than in finding a cure for sleeplessness, and certainly no one gets much shut-eye when the unseen inhabitants of Hill House begin treating their guests to a series of bizarre visions and increasingly violent bursts of mayhem.
The story's original subtext -- that most of the calamity was springing from the virginal Eleanor's long-repressed libido -- vanishes under Self's heavy hand. In the 1963 film, Harris' Eleanor was torn between returning the affections of Bloom's Theo, who was openly lesbian, and Johnson's Dr. Markway. Here, Self introduces Theo as a bisexual, only to promptly drop the matter altogether; hard to believe filmmakers could be more frank about sexuality 36 years ago than they can be today.
But this "Haunting" isn't about people anyway. It's about technology. But despite the millions that must have been spent on the various creations the fact remains that they simply aren't scary. In some cases, they're even ludicrous: When a chorus of carved cherubs comes screamingly to life, it's hard not to think of the Pop N Fresh doughboy being threatened with a trip to the oven.
What's more disturbing is the amateurishness of the performances, given the reputations of those involved. Neeson and Jones seem completely uninspired, Wilson is just plain awful and the ordinarily wonderful Taylor proves here that she can't scream convincingly to save her life.
Yes, Mr. Neeson, you're right. "The Haunting" is awful enough to make anyone reconsider their career choice. Especially film critics.

Mauricio Pochettino sacked: A look at the manager's highs and lows at Tottenham
by Press AssociationMauricio Pochettino has left Tottenham after five and a half years at the club.
It has been an eventful and swashbuckling ride during his time in north London full of ups and downs. Here, the PA news agency charts the highs and the lows during that time...
Highs
- Moura's Miracle
At half-time of Champions League semi-final second leg against Ajax, Tottenham were dead and buried. They trailed 2-0 on the night and 3-0 on aggregate and Ajax supporters were booking flights to Madrid during the half-time interval. Spurs needed a hero if they had any chance of continuing what had already been an amazing journey. Step forward Lucas Moura. The Brazilian's lightning pace and footwork saw him quickly bag two at the start of the second half, but it looked like the comeback would fall just short - until the final few seconds of injury time. Moura latched on to Dele Alli's pass to fire into the bottom corner, completing his hat-trick, sparking scenes of wild celebration and sealing one of the most famous nights in the club's history.
- Cutting Real Madrid down to size
Playing at Wembley was not an altogether enjoyable experience for Spurs, but there were some memorable nights there, notably the slaying of the European champions. They put Real Madrid, still with peak Cristiano Ronaldo in their side, to the sword at the national stadium in a real Red Letter Day. Dele Alli put them ahead in the first half and was rewarded for an outstanding display with a second after the break. Christian Eriksen put them 3-0 up soon after before Ronaldo got one back late in the game. The result and the performance was an announcement that Spurs had arrived on the European stage.
- Getting one over on Pep
Pochettino will always be able to say that he was the first opposition manager to beat Pep Guardiola in England. The pair, who regularly faced off as Barcelona and Espanyol managers, first came face to face in this country in October 2016 and Spurs handed down a first defeat to Guardiola's Manchester City. An Alli opener and Aleksandr Kolarov's own goal gave the north Londoners an impressive three points. Guardiola dominated the Premier League rivalry after that, but Pochettino got one over his rival in the Champions League last season, masterminding a narrow, but dramatic, away goals win in the quarter-finals.
- Saying farewell in style
The 2016-17 season was Tottenham's final year at their famous White Hart Lane stadium before its demolition and Pochettino was determined for them to say goodbye to their home in style.  They did it scoring 47 goals and conceding only nine. The final ever game there on a day of celebration and nostalgia was a 2-1 win over Manchester United.
- Ending Stamford Bridge hoodoo
It must have felt like Tottenham were never going to win at Stamford Bridge again as their hoodoo at the home of their London rivals had gone on 28 years. In 2017-18 the majority of their players had not even been born when Gary Lineker scored the goal that gave them their last victory there, but they finally stopped the rot with three points which were vital to their Champions League qualification. They fell behind to Alvaro Morata's header, but Eriksen levelled up before the break with a fine strike from distance before Alli continued his penchant of scoring big-game goals with a second-half double.
Lows
- Falling at the final hurdle
Having embarked on an epic and memorable journey to the Champions League final, sealed by that wild night in Amsterdam, Spurs fell flat in the showpiece in Madrid, losing 2-0 to Liverpool. That defeat hurt Pochettino more than any other as a manager. He revealed that he spent 10 days grieving the loss at his home in Spain, barely leaving his room, and said that the feeling was as bad as that he felt as a player following Argentina's omission from the 2002 World Cup.
- Seven hell
Spurs went into the record books for all the wrong reasons after the 7-2 Champions League hammering at the hands of Bayern Munich. The performance might not have been quite as bad as the scoreline suggests but it was Pochettino's heaviest defeat as a manager. It was also the first time Spurs had conceded seven at home in a major competition in their 137-year history and the first time any English club had let in that many in a European competition. It was an early black mark at their new stadium and an embarrassing night for the club.
- Final-day capitulation
After a thrilling title race with Leicester had seen Spurs fall short at the death, they downed tools on the final day of the season and were hammered, allowing Arsenal to steal second place. They capitulated to a 5-1 defeat against Rafael Benitez's already-relegated Newcastle, who had 10 men, and Pochettino was apoplectic. He revealed in his book that he wanted to "kill" his players afterwards given their poor attitude.
- FA Cup heartache
Spurs had lost in the FA Cup semi-final 12 months earlier so when they got back there in April 2018 there was a sense that this was their time. That was only heightened as playing against Manchester United at Wembley, their home ground for the season, an electric start was rewarded with an early goal from Alli. But they failed to take further early chances as Alexis Sanchez levelled and then Ander Herrera sent Jose Mourinho's men to the final. It did nothing to shake off the 'Spursy' tag - perennial nearly men.
- Self-imposed transfer ban
Having delivered Tottenham towards the top of English football, Pochettino's ability to take them to the next level was seemingly hampered by a self-imposed transfer ban which saw them go 18 months and through two transfer windows without bringing any new players into the club. It meant the Argentinian was not able to add any depth to his squad, which was shattered from their World Cup exertions, nor could he freshen it up following four years of the same players hearing largely the same message.


Mitchell scores 18 to lead SDSU to 81-64 win over LIU
by Associated PressSAN DIEGO (AP) — Matt Mitchell scored 12 of his 18 points in the second half and had a hand in two sweet plays that helped San Diego State beat Long Island 81-64 Friday night to remain undefeated.
Jordan Schakel scored 15 and had three big 3-pointers in the second half for SDSU (5-0), while Yanni Wetzell and Malachi Flynn scored 13 apiece. Flynn had 10 assists.
Tyrn Flowers scored 15 for LIU (1-4).
The Aztecs outscored LIU 18-10 in the final six minutes, with Mitchell, Flynn and Schakel leading the way.
The run started when Mitchell stole the ball and passed to Flynn, who found Wetzell for a reverse layup for a 65-54 lead.
Mitchell hit three shots down the stretch, Flynn had consecutive 3-pointers and Schakel hit the last of his three 3-pointers in the half and fourth overall.
Earlier in the second half, Flynn flashed through the key, took a pass from Mitchell on the baseline and dished to Wetzell for a slam dunk and a 54-44 lead.
It was the second game in double digits for Wetzell, a senior transfer from Vanderbilt. The big New Zealander was coming off career-highs of 20 points and 12 rebounds in a 66-49 win against San Diego on Wednesday night.
The Aztecs got three straight 3-point shots during an 11-0 run in the first half that gave them control. KJ Feagin, Schakel and Mitchell each connected from behind the arc and Aguek Arop then hit a long jumper for a 17-7 lead. SDSU’s biggest lead was 28-15 after Joel Mensah hit a jumper with 8:53 before halftime.
SDSU led 38-32 at halftime.
Jashaun Agosto and Raiquan Clark each scored 10 points for LIU of the Northeast Conference.
BIG PICTURE
LIU: The Sharks were hurt by four early turnovers but briefly took the lead at 7-6 after Julian Batts hit a 3-pointer. They then quickly fell behind by double digits.
San Diego State: The Aztecs are 5-0 for the first time since 2014-15, when they went to the NCAA Tournament. They’ve played in the postseason only twice since then, in the NIT in 2016 and the NCAAs in 2018.
UP NEXT
LIU continues a long stretch away from home when it plays at Texas Tech on Sunday. It will then play in the Las Vegas Invitational.
San Diego State hosts Tennessee State on Monday night.

What are the ‘Google+ shares’ and how to retrieve them?
27/Aug 2013
Social networks all have different metrics. On Twitter, you can look for the number or retweets, on Pinterest, the number of ‘pinned’ pictures, on LinkedIn, the number of ‘shares’, etc. Facebook is by far the more precise because you can get a number of likes, shares and comments. On Google+, the picture is not so clear yet. In this article we try to understand the different** available metrics from Google+** and we give you some code to** import the number of Google+ shares** in python and PHP.
The different metrics on Google+ : comments, +1 and shares
On Google+ there is apparently three levels of engagement : sharing, agreeing (+1) and commenting. People can share, +1 or comment** a post** on Google+ or any external website. Google has also released a button to allow +1 directly from a remote place, and you can use some javascript to embed Google+ comments on your website.
Surprisingly, to our knowledge, there isn’t a tool to show all these numbers in one same place yet. You can get the number of +1 on SharedCount, the number of comments on Terry Simmonds‘ tool and the number of shares using Google Ripples.
While the displayed +1 number on your website aggregates all possible social events (plus, reshares), the comments and shares reflects stronger interactions. Typically, the number of comments will include the number of shares and the number of comments made on your post or on a share, whereas, the number of shares will be limited to shares and re-shares only. The +1 signal is really easy to get growing whereas it is more difficult to have a high number of shares/comment without a great content.
In summary :
- +1 are the sum of
- Number of direct +1 received on a page
- Number of shares and reshares
- Comments are the sum of
- Shares and reshares
- Comments and replies posted on G+ or on the website
- Shares is only the number of shares and reshares
Shares on Google+ , why is this so complicated ? The SID bug
Some month ago, a small bug impacting on Google+ comments has been discovered by Terry Simmons who contacted the Google+ team for a fix which arrived some time later. However this bug seems to be still active when you use Ripples.
It is usually pretty easy to use Ripples to get the number of shares : https://plus.google.com/u/0/ripples/details?url=[your_url] but because of the bug, your website URL might not be the one saved correctly when it is shared on G+ by someone. When someone posts a link on Google+, an extra parameter (sid) is sometimes added.
If you cannot find all the expected shares, you should try adding a parameter at the end of your URL : %23__sid%3D0 (#__sid=0) or %23__sid%3D3 (#__sid=3) . On the URL I used for a test, I can find shares for sid=0 and for sid=3 and no shares for the standard url.
How to get some ‘Ghost’ shares ?
When you submit a post on G+, only the initial content is saved on Ripples. If you later** edit your post** and remove or edit the initial url, it will NOT be updated in Ripples. While doing my tests I thought that a bug was present and tried the following : first sending a post with my URL to G+, then removing the URL, and later asked some friends to share the edited post. I expected to see the number of shares growing. But finally it’s not the case.
You cannot get ‘fake shares’ but you can however share a post with a ghost link. That is the reason why I re-named this section ‘ghost share‘.
Share and pictures/media
If you post a link together with a picture (first put the link, wait until the excerpt is loaded then removed the excerpt) you can get more attention from readers, and more reshares and +1. The number of +1 will be attributed to your link, but it is not the same story for shares.
In the case of a share, your URL has to be the only ‘rich element’ present in the body of the post. If you have a link with a picture, it will not count as a share (because you have remove the link’s description to put the picture). So to get some reshares, you need some** great content** .
Google can’t add
When you check on Ripples a post, you can get the number of public shares but also the number of private shares, namely the total shares.
In the case of URLs, only the number of public shares is provided. Google states clearly “we don’t show private shares” and probably does not take them into account to avoid spam.** Be sure to always share your link publicly**.
During my tests, I found a really funny situation and I don’t know how to interpret it. For one of my test link, there was two contradicting data : the number of shares (indicated on the left) and the list of shares on the right, which was clearly not equal to the number indicated on the left.
If someone understands this point, I am really curious to get your opinion as a comment below.
Post with several links
What happens if you send a post with several links? For the sake of fairness, I was expecting to see a share added for every single URL, but this does not seem to be the case. I did not spend too much time on this test, but you are welcome to post your results in a comment below.
So, to summarize, when you share a post with several links, only the first one receive a share ! When I write the “first one”, I mean one from which Google+ extracted the content/picture for the small excerpt at the bottom of your post.
How to retrieve the number of Google+ shares
One can easily retrieve the number of shares given by Google Ripples. By using the same URL that Ripples use, you can extract all the share information you like (the people who reshared your post, the time etc). I give you to sample of code to extract the number of shares in PHP and in Python (hat tip to Regis Montoya, creator of the nice google app CSIPSimple for the python version) :
Python
import urllib,urllib2,json target_url="http://www.wordiz.it" target=urllib.quote_plus(target_url+"#__sid=0") #url-friendly data = 'f.req=%5B%22'+target+'%22%2Cnull%5D&' url = "https://plus.google.com/u/0/ripple/update" req = urllib2.Request(url, data, {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}) f = urllib2.urlopen(req) response = f.read() f.close() response=response[6:] #remove some bad characters # Remove ",," (non valid json) and replace with ,null, ( # Do that twice because re do not take into account overlapping matches) response_json_str = response.replace(",,", ",null,").replace(",,", ",null,") datas = json.loads(response_json_str) # Find relevant data -- might need to be changed depending on possible incoming format # Maybe need some recursive func searching for list with first item "orr.c" orr_c = datas[0][1][-3] print str(orr_c)+" share(s) pour "+target_url
Php
<?php $target="http://www.wordiz.it"; $data="f.req=%5B%22".$target."%22%2Cnull%5D&"; $url = "https://plus.google.com/u/0/ripple/update"; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('application/x-www-form-urlencoded')); $curl_results = curl_exec ($ch); curl_close ($ch); //echo $curl_results; $curl_results=substr($curl_results,6); $curl_results = str_replace(",,",",null,", $curl_results); $curl_results = str_replace(",,",",null,", $curl_results); // print_r($curl_results); $parsed_results = json_decode($curl_results, true); echo($parsed_results[0][1][4])." Google shares on ".$target; ?>
