Hello Ross,
<p>this would be the call for Icecast:
<p><A HREF="http://server-ip/admin/metadata?mode=updinfo&mount=/mountpoint.mp3&song=Artist">http://server-ip/admin/metadata?mode=updinfo&mount=/mountpoint.mp3&song=Artist</A>
& Title
<p>If you use curl to update the information you can also pass username
<br>and password.
<p><A HREF="http://user:passw@server-ip/admin">http://user:passw@server-ip/admin</A>............
<p>Cheers
<p> - Johann
