Triggering Ads on a an Audio-Only Stream

ubmradio · 25th June 2017, 23:20

Hello all:

I have a feeling this may have been brought up before, but I'll ask anyway...

If the stream that I have is audio only and does not have the metadata capability, how then do I trigger the ad block to indicate to ShoutCast i'm now in that mode?

Hi I'm new to all this but I am pretty sure you need the metadata to fire the ads.. You can do this without metasata.. It requires the Advert: tags to trigger. Why not stream metadata?
