[Icecast-dev] metadata

[Johann Soukup]

Hello Ross,

this would be the call for Icecast:

http://server-ip/admin/metadata?mode=updinfo&mount=/mountpoint.mp3&song=Artist & Title

If you use curl to update the information you can also pass username
and password.

http://user:passw@server-ip/admin............

Cheers

 - Johann
