It's another manifestation of similar behaviour but maybe not as such "related" . Many ways for this to happen. Probably if the stream is paused for longer than about 30 secs - often the source station will close the TCP connection. If metadata is being provided by a plugin, then stream "stop" or "close" is signalled to the "active" plugin to stop all related activity and discard context. So all that is left is the URL that was being played (i.e. the pure URL after all the processing, redirection and drilling down through playlists). Similar issue can be seen - playing a stream from favorites. While playing a favorite go into player context menu and use save Favorite menu. The saved URL will be the "final" URL and not the save as the originating "favorite". If you play it, it is unlikely you'll get metadata or even station logo and title (although what is saved can depend on which type of player you are using) . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117286 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
