We never got to it. What's the 'longer description" is that the icecast description field? If so, shoutcast never supported those anyway. and yp.icecast.org doesn't list them on the front page. I had a yp.icecast.org at oen time that used them, but never finished it. jack. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Now playing only works with title streaming. this won't work through a relay in icecast. We never got to it. I see. Is it difficult to implement? What's the 'longer description" is that the icecast description field? If so, shoutcast never supported those anyway. and yp.icecast.org doesn't list them on the front page. I had a yp.icecast.org at oen time that used them, but never finished it. Apparently this is the -d command line option in ices. Perhaps I could hack ices to read the title from each file and update this; would that work? Is this already possible in the perl extensions?

With the changes in cvs icecast i made just recently (CVS icecast is the latest release on the website + these changes I'm discussing) you should be able to use yp.shoutcast.com correctly. You should be able to use yp.icecast.org correctly in either icy or normal directory mode. directory mode gave a -1, but icy mode works!! Thanks. The next question I have (there's always one more isn't there 8-): I have metadata enabled, and I am doing a relay from my home dsl system to the t-1 system, which is doing the yp updates. However, my shoutcast entry doesn't have the longer description or the "now playing" option - should metadata take care of this, and will metadata survive through a relay?
