Soutcast V2 issues

[Christian]

Hi Dmitry,

  I am starting using Soutcast V2 and I am facing the following issues:

streamurl not set: It usually remains at www.shoutcast.com. Only on one stream (stream #11) it has been properly updated to http://clubbingstation.com but not on the other streams.
Station artwork usually not set.
stream artwork is not alwals updated, it is occasionnaly updated on my mp3 stream but not on the aac+ stream.

When listening with winamp playback sometime stops. Buffering is either at 0% or any other vallue but not changing. If I press play it starts again.
Sometime when this appens, but not always, Winamp opens the "multimedia" window. But did not succeed in getting any info to display there.
If I disable the metadata for the encoder then blayback is fine. There is no more buffering lock.

I did not try to only disable station and stream artwork! Maybe it would be a workarround!

RB 5.1.3.0
SHOUTcast Server v2.2.2.123/posix(linux x64) available here : http://streamer4.clubbingstation.com

Regards
Christian

PS: I just try with station and stream artwork disabled and the player is being connected for 80 minutes. The issue seems to be with artwork.
(streamurl remains an issue)

Christian - there's no much reason in sending track/station artwork to Shoutcast server as player support for this is limited (IIRC only Winamp shows those artworks). So if it does not work good in your case - I'd suggest you to keep it turned off. RadioBOSS already sends artwork and audio data in separate threads, so they should not block each other - but they could probably be blocked on the Shoutcast side.
