Hi, I'm running Aaron's tunequeue scripts for my radio site. (tunequeue.sf.net) I have ices2 to read Ogg Vorbis files and feed the icecast2 server with those files. Could someone please tell me how can I disable ID3 updating? I want all clients to only show the name of the radio, but don't get any of the ID tag information stored in the Ogg files. Where can I set that? Sorry for disturbing you with this question, but the system is used by many listeners, I can't test it out for myself, and I didn't find this in the documentation. Thanks in advance. Yours, Jacint

The vorbis tag data is an integral part of the file, so ices2 will send it to icecast, if present. If you want to strip it out, you'll need to modify the source files to remove it. Mike
I knew it wasn't ID3, I just didn't know the name for it. This way you knew what I meant. :) Thanks for the reply. Then I'll modify my Ogg files. I have jlGui Java player embedded into my web page, and it keeps reconnecting every time a song has ended. Unfortunately by reconnecting it looses the first 1-2 seconds of the songs. According to what you've said there's no way to make ices2 or icecast2 create a non-file-based stream. (That is: the player wouldn't know when a file ends and another starts, and so it wouldn't reconnect.) Am I right? No other players procude this error, but jlGui is the best ogg player I found to integrate into the webpage.
