[Icecast] Icecast Digest, Vol 175, Issue 6

Thu Jan 17 12:50:26 UTC 2019

So, I’ll try to explain what I mean a little more by referring to some images.

In the first image here, http://systrum.net/mount.png <http://systrum.net/mount.png> iTunes shows the mount-name of my stream. This is not the option that I want, but it is what seems to be the default that I am stuck with.

In this second image, http://systrum.net/stream.png <http://systrum.net/stream.png> iTunes is displaying the stream-name rather than the mount name. This is not my stream, but rather one in the iTunes internet radio directory.

To clarify, these are appearing in the media player itself, not as part of a html pop-up in a browser. So, I refer back to my original question about what the parameters available to me are in the icecast.xml file that will enable me to have the stream name appear as in the second image?

Cheers
Damian
