Song name not showing in player

[henrik]

Hi,
Just downloaded and installed subsonic. Pretty cool piece of software, I must say!
Running version 3.4 (build 530) - Should I upgrade to the beta version?

Anyway - I have one problem: The song name doesn't appear in the player, when I'm using Windows Media Player to play the music.

But considering it took me around 5 minutes from starting download to I was streaming music over the Internet, I think only one problem/issue is pretty frickin' good!! So well done on that one to Sindre.

Help is much appreciated

thanks
Henrik

Hi Henrik,

Windows Media Player doesn't support the Shoutcast protocol which is used to convey the track and artist name. Please consider using a different player, such as Winamp.

Cheers,
Sindre

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly!
Fair enough, I'll switch to a different player I might just have missed it, but it might be an idea to put in a sticky on the FAQ site.

Very cool software!
