Station name from metadata? #175

Closed alariej closed 1 year ago

alariej commented 1 year ago

Sorry if I'm missing the obvious, but is there a way to retrieve the official station name from the stream metadata? Or is there an API call specifically for that?

Thanks for the great library. I'm using it in a small vite+react+electron project and it works perfectly.

You can use the icecast-metadata-stats library for this. There are a few API calls that provide this information, depending on if you are using Icecast or Shoutcast. You can try these out in the demo with your station to see which one works for you.

Many thanks, exactly what I was looking for :-)
