PlayNow for URL SHOUTcast streams #102

It`s difficult make playnow messages from SHOUTcasts streams? I translate music station from http://5.189.142.165:8096 (Braingell Radio) and i have Unknown artist in playingnow

jagrosh commented 6 years ago

This is because the stream doesn't provide the information in the stream itself. I plan on making 'Unknown artist' show the url (or filename, for local files) in a future build, but that's about all I can do.

Hmm... But AIMP (Winamp) is providing information. And also if run http://5.189.142.165:8096 in browser its also provide.... May be its provide anyweare else? Winamp is display the tegs!

Dont know if this was already implemented, but i can assure @SiE98 claim some radio streams have metadata shown in Winamp.

For example this stream have the Artist - Title appearing on the field "Playing", i dont know how its implemented but somehow Winamp can catch it and show (print below), so maybe would be possible for the bot to parse the info as well.
