Inet Radio Streams (2 Viewers)

[no_Legend]

Hi im using Inet Radio like Shoutcast very often.

Now witht MediaPortal are there some things i miss.

The First:
Is it possible to show the ID3 tag of the Radio Stations? Not the HTTPaddress

The Sencend:

Some streams are havving a lot of ip sometimes a few of them didnt work. Here i think it should be possible in mp to set up a list perhaps an txt-file where media portal select the next wenn the first isnt connectable.

hi,

The First:

internet streams don't have any ID3 attached (unless they are not real streams played through rtsp, mms, etc protocol), playlists provided by the server usually do the trick

The Sencend:

you can make up your own Advanced Stream Redirector (ASX) or Winamp Playlist (PLS) file for a specific stream, with automatic fallbacks, misc. info, and so on...

[playlist]
numberofentries=2
File1=XXX://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXX
Title1=YYY
Length1=-1
File2=XXX://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXX
Title2=YYY
Length2=-1
Version=2

<ASX Version = "3.0">
<TITLE>AAA</TITLE>
<MoreInfo href = "http://ZZZ.ZZZ" />
<Entry>
<TITLE>YYY</TITLE>
<AUTHOR>CCC</AUTHOR>
<PARAM name="HTMLView" value="DDD" />
<REF HREF="XXX://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXX"/>
</Entry>
<Entry>
<TITLE>YYY</TITLE>
<AUTHOR>CCC</AUTHOR>   				
<PARAM name="HTMLView" value="DDD" />
<REF HREF="XXX://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXX"/>
</Entry>
</ASX>

When it is no ID3 then it is another format.

Some that sends here the artist who is now on air.
Then the shown url is in my eyes not the ideel solution.
especial in this cases where one the port is shown where the port ist relayed over. Such like this http://stream.mth-house.de:8500
