i have a mp3- and an ogg-stream simultanously

when i go to status2.xsl its output für .ogg is correct, like
artist,title;

the output for mp3 is not correct:
,artist - title;


artist is empty, but the title-tag is filled with "artist - title", which is why i have to parse the output for mp3 and ogg different.
same on status.xsl, but error cant be seen because it coincidentally shows the artists and songtitles like "artist - song" from the start. nice covered;-)
extremly bad, when theres a "-" in the artist name or the title, then you cant decide which part belongs to artist and which to title.
its very annoying. everytime when new mounts come in, our homepage looks like crap, with empty artist fields and too long songtitles.
is this a bug and can it be resolved?

greetings
cari

btw: icecast 2.3.1 on ubuntu 8.04LTS

Icecast doesn't deal with with ID3 those are handled by the source clients feeding icecast. The specification (for shoutcast compatibility for what there is) for metadata inserts in mp3 do not have separate artist and title details. The handling for - is not defined nor are non-ascii charsets.
