Hello, i've worked for some hours trying to show the name of my .ogg file in winamp but i cant do it.

I have icecast2 with moutpoint "live.ogg" and my files called this way:

"ARTIST - TRACK.ogg"

I would like to see this name "ARTIST - TRACK" in my winamp display, but just thing i see in my display is "live" from "live.ogg".

I tried a lot of resources to do it, including this topic : http://forum.icecast.org/viewtopic.php?t=160&highlight=ogg+files

But i had to quit, it's not working for me

Please help me.

Eduardo

The comments are part of the stream that is created, your source client (eg ices 2) should insert them by adding the two tags that are checked by most players ie (ARTIST= and TITLE=).

It's not clear which source client you're using but if we assume ices 2, and reading from a series of files then those 2 comments should be within each file, the filename is not important. Use ogginfo <filename> to see the current information, you can use vorbiscomment to change the comments.

Hi, my source client is ices 2, but i dont understand where i need to put this tags ARTIST= and TITLE=

I need to make one single file for each track, right?

Look my example:

ices-config.xml
<input>
<param name="type">script</param>
<param name="program">/usr/local/etc/playlist.sh</param>
</input>

playlist.sh

#!/bin/sh
echo "/home/music/music.ogg"
# The next line is optional
echo "music title"

I got this example here on forum.


Thanks
Eduardo

Hi karl, it's worked with this :

vorbiscomment -a "song-file.ogg" -t "ARTIST=artist name" -t "TITLE=song title"

Thanks a lot

Long life to icecast!!! Wink
