(Solved) Now Playing Info

Hi, a question I was unable to find an answer to.
The plugin creates the.txt file perfectly and if I customize the fields he respects them. Unfortunately it does not do the same operation on the apikey of tunein where it continues to always send the contents of the tags. Is there any way to fix this or can you ask yourself to develop this?

Marius

Please read the "RadioDJ - Stream Variables.pdf" from Docs folder.
Basically you need to use $autotitle$ in template and then customize your track type variables in rdj options.

It is already set up like this, in fact the NowPlaying.txt file works perfectly on the stream. The problem is about sending the API to TUNE-IN where it is ignored and sent the contents of the tags

Isn't there an xml file you can customize for the tune in feed?

Radiobellissima

No unfortunately I can't find anything to configure. On tune-in I have not yet resolved the jingle tags are broadcast. Instead on the .txt file everything is ok. :'(

Radiobellissima

Since there seems to be no working solution. Could I ask if this feature will be fixed or is it not scheduled? I also wanted to send custom tags to tune-in but unfortunately it's impossible.

Post a link to an image capture of the settings your are using to send data to tunein. We can't help if we can't see what your settings are etc

I try to explain the problem better. I use the txt file to send the meta data to the encoder and I also use personalized metadata such as jingles or commercials. I send the radio name or the inscription advert and everything works well. :ok:
The same things are not respected instead on tunein and on the sending of metadata to omnia.
Both do not respect the custom fields always send author - title even if I set station name or advert.

Hi Gang, I don't want to repeat this question if it is already posted. If I do, I apologize.

My question is simple, is there a way to apply "now playing" on our website? I appreciate any and all assistance.

Thanks,
Tim

First off start a new topic if you require help or assistance otherwise things get muddled real quick

Secondly have you searched the forum or even looked at the main downloads page? There is a PHP now playing script on there.

No, the encoder READS the information from the txt file.

do you mean the correct data appears in the txt file?...

this is the important part which we need more details...
How are you sending data to TuneIn? do you have a custom script which is sending the contents of your txt file to TuneIn? then we'd need to view that script to understand where it is getting the data from and what it is sending.

Or are you using the Now Playing info, Tab=Web, or tab = StreamingServer, or tab = Network, and then we would need to see screen caps of those settings, etc.

just like with broadcasting, it is very important to understand your audience, and you need to understand that we are not magicians who have remote viewing capability to see inside your installation of RadioDJ and be able to assit you with troubleshooting.  :bash:

1= ok
2= yes
3= foto
I attach the photo of the sending to the encoder so much does the same defect of tunein does not respect the custom fields. At the moment I send with another script to tunein because of monetization. I can't lose cash waiting for a solution.

I'm sorry that image is too small and I can't read anything on it to understand how you are sending it, and what custom variabels you are sending to your internal script.

and is this screen cap of the current solution that you are using as a fallback to ensure monetization? or is this screencap the version that is failing?

it would be helpful to see both screencaps, and to see larger sizes. Use Imgur and link to the full screen images you upload.

$artist$, $title$ and other variables related directly to the tags will always return the tag data!
The only exception is the $autotitle$ variable which will return the data you specified in the stream titles.
