Kodi Community Forum

After several tests with several skins (and after calling Kodi's jsonrpc for details) it appears that ICY radio streams are not parsed to show any metadata contained within.

Is this down to Kodi itself or ffmpeg ?

As it stands with Jarvis, metadata is shown for a streaming radio station as track information. eg 'Metallica - fade to black'. With Krypton, this information doesn't seem to be available.

Thanks for any insight on this.

thanks for this bug report black eagle.

at the moment its not possible to get any information about artist/song while listen to online-radio. i have reported this some time ago in estuary-subforum but it seems this is a general kodi-problem and has nothing to do with the skin. it would be nice to get back such a essential feature into kodi v17.

thank you very much fernetmenta!

@ fernetmenta
i tested latest nightly "KodiSetup-20161007-b57c736-master.exe" but i dont get any information about artist/song. tested this with estuary and confluence skin. only the name of the radiostation is displayed (as it was bevor). are there changes to the skin needed?
