Hello,
I experience a very strange and annoying issue with Logitech Media Server.
Using version 8.3.1.
The issue is with CLI and web interface.
I'll describe it using the web interface.
The problem is that LMS does not show song artwork and artist/title info as sent by the stream when the station is played from a playlist.
I'm using playlists to group similar stations together.
Using this radio station for testing:
1.FM Classic Rock
http://opml.radiotime.com/Tune.ashx?...b4c05e6357be69
When the radio station is saved as a favorite and played from the favorite list
the artwork, artist and the title are correctly displayed - see screenshot lms-1.
However, when the radio station is played from the playlist, instead of the current song artwork as sent by the stream, the station logo is shown:
It is even weirder as the display changes as soon as you start browsing playlists - you don't have to change anything.
For example, when I navigate to the playlist where this radio is stored (e.g. Home > Playlists > 5)
LMS changes the display of the currently played song - see screenshot lms-2.
BTW the station name in the playlist is wrong - I can't change it, see the note below.
Of course, the same station url is stored in the Favorites and in the Playlist 5.
And when I press play for this station in the playlist, the artist and the title get updated to the right data, however,
the artwork remains station logo - see screenshot lms-3.
Sometimes also the title and artist are not displayed properly.
The title changes to "Title - Artist' format and artist shows the station name.
To me this seems like a bug.
As a side note there is another issue.
It is impossible to edit station name in the playlist.
When I click on the Edit icon the fields for name and url are displayed, however, the name is not saved.
