I wonder if anyone has any thoughts on, or has even been successful in, doing this. We would like to send TuneIn an update of title and artist every time it changes, whether AutoDJ or a live presenter is driving the stream.

TuneIn has an API here: http://tunein.com/broadcasters/api/ but the basic format that needs to be sent is as follows:

 # Update the song now playing on a station
    GET http://air.radiotime.com/Playing.ashx?partnerId=<id>&partnerKey=<key>&id=<stationid>&title=Bad+Romance&artist=Lady+Gaga

An update must be sent only once per song.

When we drive our streams manually, our DJ apps can update the TuneIn playlist, but when AutoDJ is running, that won't work - and besides, at the server end is a more sensible place to do it, centrally and irrespective of who or what is driving the stream.

Any ideas most gratefully received.

Our service provider runs the servers (and Centova thanks to our suggestion to offer it) so we don't have direct access to the system and thus limited knowledge of it, but we will be responsible for engaging a developer if necessary and liaising with our provider to get it going. If it's possible...

Thanks,

This would need to be supported in the actual autoDJ or streaming server software, not in Centova Cast, as Centova Cast is just a control panel and has no way of being notified of song changes as they happen in realtime.

Unfortunately as far as I'm aware, ShoutCast/IceCast/sc_trans2/ices do not support this.
