A simplified Version of the Icecast Title-Script from the @Radio-Zoom API

$stream['info']['title']
und
$stream['info']['artist_song']

haben die identische Quelle und somit immer denselben Wert: $json_a['icestats']['source']['title']

And How can we see the current artisst and title playing on our icecast server?

i put the code in a php page empty, then load it with my server, port, and mount point,, but nothing appears on the screen! Isnt the code complete? Thakn you.

This is a tool Script that does not output anything directly. Either you modify it to output directly or you create another script that handles the output by calling this script.
