[streaming] Re: how do you display the shoutcast title info?

[list at scttransport.dk]

Hi james

 

I mainly listen to radio station Music 1. For me the title fo the song the
"now playing" field is always displayed at the bottom of the vlc player
(wxwindows interface)

 

The problem is most likely that the skin u are using don't show the now
playing field, I believe the default skins2 skin don't show it.

 

So try to change to another skin or try the wxwin interface and see if its
then displayed, if it is, it's a problem with the skin.

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Cheers

Jonas Larsen

Subject: [streaming] how do you display the shoutcast title info?

 

when I stream a server in winamp I can see the song thats playing. in vlc
all I get is the url. how can I make it display it? is there a way to do it
in the web interface? the telnet interace?
I looked on the vlc page but didnt find it.

Its little things like this that keep me from switching to vlc completely.

Its the most useful media player around, most configurable, wish it had more
skins, but that will just take time. 
if someone would make an interface that used winamp skins that problem would
be solved. even if its just classic winamp skins, there are hundreds of
those.
