PHP script to extract artist & title from Shoutcast/Icecast stream

Yosi Ben Simon picture Yosi Ben Simon · Apr 4, 2013 · Viewed 10.6k times · Source

I found a script which can extract the artist & title name from an Icecast or Shoutcast stream. I want the script to update automatically when a song changed, at the moment its working only when i execute it. I'm new to PHP so any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

define('CRLF', "\r\n");

You will need to constantly query the stream at a set interval to find when the song changes.

This can be best done by scheduling a cron job. If on Windows, you should use the Windows Task Scheduler
