Display meta data from an OGG via HTTP in the main window

Postby darkbasic » 05 Mar 2009 23:29

Hi all, I'dd like to display changing real-time Meta data (Title, Artist, Album..) from an ogg-vorbis music file coming in via an HTTP stream in the VLC main window, maybe instead of the radio name in the box just under the play button.

I'm talking about the meta data inside the "vorbis comment".

Thanks,
Darkbasic

Does it work in the interface in VLC 1.0.0?

Do you mean 0.9.8? No, it doesn't.
In VLC I can see them only if I press CTRL+J, while in softwares such as amarok I can see them in the main window.

In 1.0.0?
If you mean git, I just compiled the latest snapshot and it works flawlessly!

Thank you,
Darkbasic

Edit:
I just noticed a little bug: in the main windows the metadatas refresh correctly, but if I press CTRL + J (codec information) I saw the first track metadata and not the current one.
