Fix vlc chirpy sound listening to shoutcast audio via proxy

Submitted by admin on Tue, 05/26/2009 - 11:04

The shoutcast bug surfaced again in Ubuntu Intrepid, Ubuntu karmic.

To fix:

 sudo sed -i 's/Icy-MetaData:/Xcy-MetaData:/g' /usr/lib/vlc/access/libaccess_http_plugin.so

Tested with vlc-nox / vlc Version: 0.9.4-1ubuntu3

If this doesn't work then:

sudo sed -i 's/Icy-/Xcy-/g' /usr/lib/vlc/access/libaccess_http_plugin.so

Works on "VLC media player 1.0.2 Goldeneye" (1.0.2-1ubuntu2.1)
