Shoutcast streaming channel

Hi

I would like to create a stable shoutcast mp3 streaming channel for my online station

I have checked the forums for the last year and I can’t find any clear understandable documentation to make the song metadata and artwork appear. My other problem is that sometimes the station starts playing immediately other times it take up to 5 minutes to start the stream.

Are there any whizkids that can help with easy steps to resolve my issues?

Thanks in advance

This might help with the mp3 streams that take 5 minutes to buffer before they start playing: http://forums.roku.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=63904#p482905

Roku doesn’t support pulling Shoutcast metadata from an audio stream.

I’ve brought it up a few times, but it’s not a priority. See this thread: viewtopic.php?f=34&t=86940&p=491503&hilit=shoutcast#p491503
