The thing is that if you try to play radio stations that use the iHeart radio format using the TuneIn Radio feature, Squeezebox can not properly show the song title or artist name without all of the other iTunes ID stuff. I wish in vain that some 3rd party plugin developers could overcome this limitation with their code and maybe the official Logitech developers will (yeah I'm dreaming). Michael Herger are you reading this? I would gladly pay for this, since this seems to be the new trend by another major 3rd party plugin developer (charging for his plugins, he is very advanced and he deserves to be paid for his work).
To see if it does this for you, search for KZPS in the web UI under Internet Radio>Search and play the station. You may have to have the TuneIn Radio feature and be registered there for this to work, I don't recall. Example of display on Squeezebox on the example KZPS station: text="Feel Like Makin' Love" song_spot="M" MediaBaseId="1086163" itunesTrackId="318727125" amgTrackId="T 12309918" amgArtistId="0" TAID="40534" TPID="1573102" cartcutId="0026092001" Lone Star 92.5 Bad Company The top part is what scrolls across the Squeezebox. The bottom part is under that. Very annoying. I wish this could be fixed. I realize this is what a lot of Clear Channel radio stations do. I really do not understand why, unless they get more return for their dollar investment this way. -- Silverbullet ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Silverbullet's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3985 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90671 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
