Virtualdj + Traktor icecast metedata
  • Hi
    I am using Virtualdj to encode to airtime using Icecast, then airtime goes to my mp3 stream.
    The problem is although I can hear the sound, there is no information in the media player everything comes up as unknown (no title or artist info).
    I have tried various encoders and DJ software i.e Traktor, Butt, Sam Edcast etc. The only software I could get to work was Mixxx.
    However I am not able to switch all my station  DJs to the Mixxx Software.
    Airtime is a fantastic system and I would love to run my station using it but the Artist title etc being displayed is crucial for the station.

    Could you tell me if there are any plans to deal with this issue.
    Kind regards

    this is a regression from 2.2.1
    normally corrected on the 2.3
  • As Albert mentioned, this is fixed in 2.3 - due next week.

  • Not fixed, in fact the problem has become worse now i'm not getting any metadata. No show title, artist or track title information in show source mode or master source mode.
  • Hi Keith,

    We cannot reproduce this. It is in fact working. Are you still having this problem?
