Hi all,

I currently broadcast a show using shoutcast and oddcast and I cannot figure out how to get Mixmeister to stream the song title and artist during the show. It seems to get stuck on the last song that was on before I started my show. So the entire show has one song and never actually updates as new songs are played.

Has anyone ever experienced this? Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately Mixmeister doesn't send the shoutcast stream directly therefore it isn't able to send the song titles.

It can update a web-page with now-playing info but in my experience doing this and running the shoutcase encoder and an ftp client with an auto upload at small enough intervals meant the system was incredibly unreliable.

With my shoutcast shows I set a catch all dj/show name and backannounce the tracks (when I can be bothered Wink )

Thanks for the reply Monk :P

Do you know by chance if MixMeister can use Winamp plugins?

Also do you know if MM can dump the current song title into a file? There has to be a way, lol. Thanks again.
