[icecast-dev] More libshout questions ((even)more info)

[Deven Phillips]

Even more to consider...

    The metadata is working with WinAmp and RealPlayer. The concern I 
have is that the 'url' metadata is being misinterpreted. My url has a 
"-" in it, and that is getting mistranslated somewhere and 
WinAmp/RealPlayer then see it as artist/title information.  Not good. 
WinAmp is supposed to display the website defined by the URL. Something 
else I'll be looking into. Perhaps libshout does/doesn't do some URL 
encoding?
