Hi,

I'm trying to write a simple webapp so party guests can add songs to the
playlist. I'll be using https://github.com/diraimondo/gmusicproxy to
provide a stable URL for each track, however when I manually 'Tune In'
the HTTP URL for a particular track and then 'Add', it just appears in
the playlist as a blank 'Radio Icon' with no artist/track name.

I can confirm from the GMusicProxy console that no HTTP request is made
by LMS until that track is actually played. Only then does the
artist/track name become available. Is it possible to make the LMS read
e.g. 128KB of the stream just to look for an ID3 tag (or however many
bytes *icy-metaint* says for a Shoutcast title) without actually playing
the track?

If not, is there a way to add an item to the playlist (I'm using the
Python https://github.com/jinglemansweep/PyLMS library) and supply
Artist/Album/Track data?  I need to know if guests are putting cr*p in
the queue so I can remove it!

Thanks! (I'm using 7.9.0 from July 1st - Michael, you are awesome!)
