Howdy Folks: Is there a way in v2.4.2 to include a ?StreamUrl=? field in the stream metadata as well as ?StreamTitle=?? It appears that the administrative interface only populates StreamTitle. For example: http://server.example.com:8000/admin/metadata?mount=MyMount&mode=updinfo&song=MySong will insert only ?StreamTitle=MySong?;. Googling around has brought up some possible approaches, but they all look dreadfully hack-ish to me. For example: http://wiki.barix.com/index.php?title=How_To_trigger_Relays_using_metadata (scroll down about halfway to the screenshot of IceCast?s admin interface). Is there a correct, supported way to do this? Cheers! |----------------------------------------------------------------------| | Frederick F.

I’m thinking something along the lines of an additional argument to the existing /admin/metadata interface —e.g. http://server.example.com:8000/admin/metadata?mount=MyMount&mode=updinfo&song=MySong <http://server.example.com:8000/admin/metadata?mount=MyMount&mode=updinfo&song=MySong>&url=http://myurl.example.com/some_node Everything from ‘&url=‘ onwards (inclusive) would be optional; if absent, the behavior would be precisely as it is now.
