<p class="p">There are some self-explanatory description fields, and two important methods. Sometimes you
don't need categories even. The update_streams() function often downloads a website, parses it
with regular expressions or PyQuery / DOM methods, and packs into into a result list.</p>
<p class="p">Here entries is a list of dictionaries, with standardized entry names like "title" and "playing"
for the description, and "homepage" for a browsable link, and most importantly "url" for the
actual streaming link. Often you want to add a "genre" and "format" and "bitrate" info. But this depends
on your plugins data source, really.</p>
