About the XML tag SONGTITLE

Hi:
I hope that I posting in the right forum. I just start broadcasting with shoutcast and I found a little detail. I use this asp code to show the current song.

Quote:

<%
Function unUDate(intTimeStamp)
varFecha = DateAdd("s", intTimeStamp, "01/01/1970 00:00:00")
unUDate = DateAdd("h", -5, varFecha)
End Function

extURL = "http://123.456.789.123:12345/admin.cgi?pass=xxxxxx&mode=viewxml&decachetime=" & Server.URLEncode(Now)

set xmlDoc = createObject("Msxml.DOMDocument")
xmlDoc.async = false
xmlDoc.setProperty "ServerHTTPRequest", true
xmlDoc.load(extURL)

CurrentSong = xmlDoc.SelectSingleNode("//SONGTITLE").text

varAhoraEmitiendo=Mid(Replace(CurrentSong,"ÿ","°"),1)
varAhoraEmitiendo=Mid(Replace(varAhoraEmitiendo,"°","ó"),1)
%>

<html>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30">

<body text="#FFFFFF">

<div align="left" style="font-family:Arial; font-size: medium;">
<marquee><b><%= varAhoraEmitiendo %></b></marquee>
</div>

</body>
</html>

But the info of the XML tag SONGTITLE is "%artist - %title" and I need to show "%album - %title".

How can I do it?

Please sorry my grammar.

unless the source is providing the title in the "%album - %title" format then the currentsong will not work in the manner you're wanting as you seem to be working against a v1 DNAS.

if you use a v2 DNAS and a v2 Source then you can get the metadata from it which depending on what the Source was able to get will provide more metadata from the file tag so you can then create "%album - %title" yourself.
