Re: song title and artist

Chris,

Did you change the index as well? We should probably take this off list, but not before I again mention Icecast recommends against doing what we are describing, for good reasons. Please see here: https://icecast.org/docs/icecast-latest/server-stats.html

using this but not getting

    .then(response => response.text())

Wow that is a big step forward. So basically screen-scrape the desired info? Are there any scrapers already made?

Thx so much.

Hi Chris,

Try using this URL: http://icecast.uhururadio.com:8010/status.xsl

If you're trying to pull from the 2nd mount, you'll need to change the index position in the JS. Try 42.

I cannot test for you due to: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS/Errors/CORSMissingAllowOrigin

Hi Ben - Thx for reply. I am trying to extract from this link: 

http://icecast.uhururadio.com:8010/uhururadio.mp3.m3u

I put it in the code you sent but got no title, etc.

Any thoughts?

Hi,

I believe this sort of task is often accomplished with JavaScript. See this link for an example: https://github.com/talkinglibrary/now_playing/blob/main/TLNowPlaying.html

Please note the Icecast folks discourage fetching things from the status page. See: https://icecast.org/docs/icecast-latest/server-stats.html

Please don't mistake me for an expert.

How can we display these in a website link? We are uploading the metadata because Winamp (a windows desktop app) can display it. Embedding the url in html only gives us the audio, however.

TIA
