To send metadata please use the E= command. After the "E" parameter, you should see the song´s title. The command is extreamely key sensitive. The right syntax is:
http://<ip-instreamer>/rc.cgi?E=StreamTitle='Title';
The Keyword: "StreamTitle" must be written as it is in the example. Please do not forget the " ' "signs and the " ; " at the end of the command.
The E= command work on Internet Radio mode. It could also sucessfully transfer the metadata through a Shoutcast server, when the Shoutcast Server works in the RELAY mode.
Shoutcast config: RelayPort=8000 RelayServer=192.168.110.179 (Instreamer IP)
Instreamer Config: Shoutcast Source : 0.0.0.0 : 8000
