Shoutcast update
Posted: Wed Nov 30, 2011 7:25 pm
The shoutcast v1/v2 server scrapers have been updated to support getting the admin XML with your shoutcast admin password.
If you have recently updated your bot and now get "Got garbage from server [X]", you may have a password set that was previously ignored but now causes an error.
To fix it:
Shoutcast v1: You can either just remove the Pass line from your SS/ServerX section; or set Pass to your shoutcast admin password. The only benefit of the admin password is it would use less bandwidth scraping.
Shoutcast v2: Set Pass to your shoutcast admin password, the password is currently required for Shoutcast v2 since they keep changing the HTML.
