Workaround for stream restarting #141

Open BaileyMcKelway opened 4 years ago

BaileyMcKelway commented 4 years ago

Hi I love this project. I found a work around for the stream restarting by concating the audio files into one. The intial start time is slower however once it starts streaming the stream is unbroken.

I've collected the metadata from each file but haven't found a way to reload the overlay text for the metadata to match the song.

What are some good ways to do this?

@BaileyMcKelway Hello! So yes, unfortunately, the stream does drop temporarily between songs in order to switch. In most cases this is fine, but depending on device and network conditions this can be a bit funny as you've discovered.

There's an open issue at #104 and #114 to help this. But Haven't had the time to implement :cry:
