How can I get audiotrack name from HTTP stream?

Postby mafatik » 31 Jul 2019 11:33

I'm using VLC to stream audio to the web. I need to get metadata such as track name and artist (or at least file name) to show it on my web-page. May be It plausible to save meta at some file and then parse it or something? How can I do that?

I found this https://addons.videolan.org/p/1172613/ addon. It generates .txt files with meta

Is there any way to serve this as metadata in a outgoing HTTP stream? To send it to the player for display?
