(or iTunes API?) - display last 5 or 10 played songs from now i use this free one here : https://www.yesstreaming.com/free-html5-audio-player but i need a better one + the list from RCAST.net it works, but could be better, especialy some errors in accents in some band names thank you very much, Marc - France -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You do not need a "perfect player"- almost all media players can stream audio, too. What you need is to save the playlist (.m3u by default) and tell your media player to play that.

Good evening, On Wed, 2024-01-17 at 21:01 +0100, marc at clubcapelli.com wrote:> hi friends, (sorry in advance if it is the wrong place to ask) > > i'm seeking the perfect player for a html website running a radio > station feed by RadioDJ + Icecastjust to clarify this first: so you're in control of the Icecast and the source client, correct?> > i need : > - good compatibility (windows, [...], androideasy> mac, [...], ios [...]hard> - display artist & title (send by my encoder in metadata)This is a topic that clearly depends on the above. Apple support basically dictates the technology, as everyone else is speaking everything and apple is the limiting factor. The question here might be what quality of the metadata you need. Is it just a displayable string, or do you need something else?> - cover and album : search & display by the player himself (in LastFM > db ?) (or iTunes API?)Ideally the album art is already in the metadata as sent by the source client. For everything else details matter.> - display last 5 or 10 played songsThat should not be a problem at all.> from now i use this free one here : > https://www.yesstreaming.com/free-html5-audio-player but i need a > better one + the list from RCAST.net > it works, but could be better, especialy some errors in accents in > some band namesMetadata needs to be correct on your source client to begin with. However specifically with legacy codecs this is often a problem as there is no way to communicate the character set. (This is nothing we can fix, we can only fix our products ;) So generally more details are needed to help with that. You said "seeking the perfect player". This sounds like you're having a business usecase? Or is this a scientific question?
