Re: Display Artist-Song

I thought that might be the problem too.  I went to the /?op=select 
screen and clicked on a song, and got the same results.  The filename 
is displayed for all the files I encoded with iTunes, but when I click 
on a file that is encoded with CDex on a PC, the title and artist is 
displayed.  I know the rewrite is working because the URL's in Winamp 
and in iTunes shows the md5 hash of the filename.  When I look at the 
MP3 Stream info, it shows the Metadata interval, the stream name 
(correct), and the title is displayed as the full filesystem path name. 
  Very odd indeed.  I don't think there is a problem with Apache (I've 
been working with Apache for over 5 years and have hacked on the code), 
I think there is a problem with the mp3 files I've encoded with iTunes, 
or there is something funny going on with mod_mp3 and these files.

Thanks,
Dean
