Press on the ‚?‘ mark icon at the very top right. This will give an info for each field.
You need to provide the admin credentials of the SHoutcast server (ie. admin username and password).
And set the Force Update option for the song title update.

So I followed all the steps and yes, the title is updated but only once. After that no updates are done anymore. I'm going to send you by e-mail my settings. Could you please give some advise about what is going wrong here.

How are you testing things? Your streaming server settings looks okay so far - or do you use a SHOUTcast v2 server (or is it a v1 server)?
Do you wait until the next track starts to play?
Else, check, if you have defined any song title exclude filters in the general settings, section streaming.
You might also enable the 'Show Status Bar' in the network monitor window.

that works well now I see, you just have to change the jingles so that they are not displayed.

Thanks for your great help! It was indeed working, but only visible in the "history" tab in the Shoutcast server (not directly updated in the main screen after a track change). Now I only have to find out how to exclude the jingles from this list...

choose edit at the cartwall section, then change the type via track setting. there may be another way but I know this for sure

Hi Michel,
Thanks for your suggestion. I already have all my jingles categorized as "Jingle" (like your screenshot). This however does not mean that they are not shown in the stream history.
