Update Stream Titles #60

Closed david-jointech closed 9 years ago

david-jointech commented 9 years ago

When I play an icecast stream, the title of the currently playing song gets stuck on the first title played. Could this be automatically updated to the currently played title on the the stream?

Do you have an example stream to test this with?

david-jointech commented 9 years ago

Well, I'm using it with a private stream, which is password protected (legal reasons) and only used by me.

My setup: I've got a host machine running mpd and streaming via icecast. (If any configs would be useful I can provide them). On my laptop I connect to the stream via mpd (with mpc add "stream-adress") and continually play it. To control the music I connect to the server with ario.

That sadly doesn't really help me with finding out what (if anything) mpDris receives from mpd when the stream metadata changes... Do you have any public example stream to test this with? (I don't really know any radio stations on the net, and the ones I know don't seem to have any metadata at all.)

This behaviour also does happen with CINEMIX (http://94.23.51.96:8010/).

Should be fixed in the Git version. Reopen otherwise.
