Hello

Installed an shoutcast V2 server and want to add album art to the stream.
Title updates are working, but on my Squeezebox radio and touch no album art of the currently playing track is displayed.
The album art is there in the tag of the track.

Can anyone explane how this album art workst with shoutcast V2 servers?
Thanx
Friso

ProppFrexx supports updating the album art with a SHOUTcast v2 server (see the "SCv2" streaming server configuration settings and make sure you enabled the "Artwork" option) - you can actually monitor and check this on the main SHOUTcast web-pages of your server - it contains a link to the updated album art data (showing that as binary data only however).

Anyhow, the client needs to support updating the metadata of a SHOUTcast v2 server as well. Most client still only support the SHOUTcast v1 meta data protocol - which doesn't include album art.
I have no idea, if Squeezebox radio supports that - you should ask Squeezebox if they support the new SHOUTcast v2 meta data updates, which might include album art.

Remotely i get a page with a icon, not a picture. The link looks like
http://frisotrip.nl:8010/playingart?sid=1

Any ideas?
Friso

Thanx Bernd
When will it be available?

Friso

Later today...

Thanx

Just fixed that here, so it will be included in the next version!

v3.0.13.5 is now available fixing that issue.

Yes, I just saw, that SHOUTcast v2 has deprecated the APIC metadata info (as ProppFrexx is currently using) and instead nor only uses in-stream metadata updates - which are currently not supported by ProppFrexx.
I'll see, if I can add this to a future release - so far I am afraid, that SHOUTcastv2 AlbumArt support is broken...
Note, that this is only true for AlbumArt support - all other SHOUTcastv2 feature are still working and supported.

Bernd

The result page is now showing the album art, but on my squeezebox nothing is displayed.
In the shoutcast server webinterface is see the following

Stream artwork not available
Playing artwork available

Is there somthing to configure in the "stream artwork"?
