Hello,

I'm casting audio with VLC, with the commandline

cvlc /home/pi/partage/*.mp3 --random --loop --sout '#transcode{vcodec=none,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100,scodec=none}:http{mux=mp3,dst=:19131/}' --no-sout-all --sout-keep

I can read the music with my player, but I don't have titlename of the songs.

When I stream with mpd, I have the titlename of the songs in my player

Here is part of mpd config file

Code: Select all

metadata_to_use "title,name"

audio_output {
        type            "httpd"
        name            "My HTTP Stream"
        encoder         "vorbis"                # optional, vorbis or lame
        port            "8000"
        bitrate         "128"                   # do not define if quality is defined
        format          "44100:16:1"
        max_clients     "0"                     # optional 0=no limit
}

Could you tell me if it is possible to have the same thing when casting with VLC, and how to do this, please ?

Thanks !
