# Feature description:

I have a few internet radio stations where the metadata (normally song/artist) are not shown. This info is shown in other apps. It appears that hls streams do not show metadata (at least in these two cases)

Example streams not showing the metadata in the app are:

[https://wz7liw.scahw.com.au/live/7chillpophits\_128.stream/playlist.m3u8](https://wz7liw.scahw.com.au/live/7chillpophits_128.stream/playlist.m3u8)  
[https://wz3liw.scahw.com.au/live/32000s\_128.stream/playlist.m3u8](https://wz3liw.scahw.com.au/live/32000s_128.stream/playlist.m3u8)

ffprobe shows that these streams have metadata (for example):  
Stream #0:0: Audio: aac (LC), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 129 kb/s  
Metadata:  
variant\_bitrate : 130000  
title : The Real Slim Shady  
artist : Eminem

### Problem solved:

Yes currently only supporting Icy metadata, will add support for those in next release.
