Is it possible to display ‘now playing details’?
When I use VLC media player to playback some radio streams track details (i.e. the name of the artist and track name) are displayed. However, when I attempt to stream a station on Minimserver that provides this feature, such as Linn Classical, no track details are displayed on my control point. I appreciate that this may be due to a limitation of various factors including the control point that I’ve opted to use (Linn Kazoo), or indeed how perhaps I’ve mistakenly written certain m3u files (?!?), but it would be great to see this info.

FYI at the moment my m3u file for Linn Classical comprises:
Code:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1, [id;mp3] Linn Radio Classical

MinimStreamer removes this metadata as part of its internal transcoding process. It isn't possible to change this.
