Seven and a half years after suggesting these changes, I have finally implemented them as part of a plugin. It includes parsing of SHOUTcast ICY StreamTitle and looking up missing cover art
It is in my Radio Now Playing plugin that is available via the LMS 3rd-party plugin list https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?115201-Announce-Radio-Now-Playing-plugin The parsing is done by regex and is held in a configuration file which makes it relatively easy to adapt for other stations if needed. But given that no-one else in the last 7 years has asked for this capability then I suspect it is just my big itch that was finally scratched. The regex looks something like this Code: -------------------- StreamTitle=\'(?<progtitle>.*?): (?<artist>.*?)(?: - (?<title>.*?))?\'(?:;|$)(?:StreamUrl=\'(?<cover>.*)\'(?:;|$))? -------------------- which, if given StreamTitle=Happy Hour: The Beatles - When I'm 64;StreamUrl=https://lastfm.freetls.fastly.net/i/u/770x0/56c8ae3f99db414db15270f6adcc0f5b.gif#56c8ae3f99db414db15270f6adcc0f5b; will return: progtitle=Happy Hour artist=The Beatles title=When I'm 64 cover=https://lastfm.freetls.fastly.net/i/u/770x0/56c8ae3f99db414db15270f6adcc0f5b.gif#56c8ae3f99db414db15270f6adcc0f5b The regex is a bit more complicated than you might think it needs to be because it has to return sensible things when there is no song artist/title (implying a spoken link).
