But as this problem appeared already in the previous version and has not been solved yet, I'd like to give it some kind of voice.
In the 8.x.-brunch it worked fine, but since using the 9.x-branch the meta data (artist, title, album, ...) is not refreshed/reloaded during play of an audio stream. For me as an interessed user this means i have to pause and restart the stream to get the information updated. Which means that there is a gab of a second even with 32 kbit-streams! And that is imho not a "low piority" issuse.
As this problem is more than just annoying - it makes vlc unusable as a radioplayer - I hope someone could fix it. Unfortuantely I don't have any coding skills and can't do it myself. But for me it seems not too hard to handle for so. who's into it. Thanks a lot, guys! Really!
edit: If there is anything but coding I can do to help: please let me know!
edit²: Just an idea that came to my mind: What about a update button/hidden F5 function in the info window (crtl+i)?
