password keeps changing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am using this as a standalone to connect to shoutcast server. All details are 
correct and can stream but when I stop streaming it wont reconnect as password 
keeps changing after streaming. the : which is in password changes to %a e.g 
password is 123:456 after streaming automatically changes to 123%a456 any ideas 
in stopping this and saving password?

To add to the OP, this is also an old issue that still stands. Using a : in the 
password field is how sc_trans parses user:pass combos required to login via 
shoutcast transcoder. Transcoder login *requires* this format in the password 
field to be sent for parsing. I can confirm this has been broken for a long 
time and is especially irritating when your encoder drops and tries to 
reconnect automatically because it will error on reconnect making auto 
reconnect essentially useless on these systems as well. It appears the : is 
being escaped, perhaps a bug in the file format the config is stored in after 
it's entered?
