Chorus is a very good interface. I use it a lot. Many thanks for that. Overall it works very nice and smoothly and fits to my needs.
I have noticed a tiny problem and searched a lot about an eventual config setting but could not get it solved. Even not found searching the web or this forum. I wonder what I am doing wrong.
When I open a music album and I start it, all works fine, it updates the music information such as the track name it is playing. I.e. it refreshes the current track information.
However, the above doesn't work with radio streams. I open a playlist with radio streams from the browser in Chorus. This playlist is retrieved from the local storage, e.g.: /storage/radio/RadioTunes - Favorites - 2017.pls. I can open and play a stream from the list. All working perfectly good. After opening the stream it displays the current "artist and songname". What it doesn't do is refresh/update the "artist and songname" when the next track is started.
The problem is not in the stream itself. It does work with the Kodi app on my phone and it does work in Kodi when I watch it at the TV.
I have tried this with Chrome and even from a Windows with Edge. Same issue. The workaround is:
- refresh the whole page, or
- press the "repeat" or "random track" button, which is more convenient than the first option.
Currently I have Chorus version 18.x-2.4.6 on Kodi 18.6 (out of the box from LibreELEC 9.2.1 on a RaspBerry 4B). My client is Firefox verson 76 at Linux Mint 19.3.
Ideas about this are more than welcome! Many thanks in advance.
By accident I discovered the track info is updated each new track again when I disconnect and connect to the network while the webpage chorus2 is active and playing a stream. As soon as I choose (another) radio stream it again shows the first track info and from then it stays frozen again.
