The website gets its metadata from a separate API call (for the flac stream the metadata is not in the stream itself). The Metadata Service should do the same - unfortunately it’s broken for this station.
Thanks for explaining. Just one more question. I’m still not sure where’s fault - is it Roon?
A good question.
The fault is in the Roon system rather than Superstereo, but the Metadata Service used by Roon was developed by a user who is no longer active (@alec_eiffel ). Roon have not taken over the maintenance of this, other than hosting it.
The future of the facility is uncertain.

@BrianW and others, sorry, I have been more than occupied on personal and professionnal challenges in the past year. I am planning to update/fix Metadata service during my holidays in August, please be patient, and apologies…
Yes please dedicate your summer holidays to updating the service…!! ![]()
Hopefully there are many people besides myself who appreciate the value that your radio metadata service brings to Roon (it’s quite possible some users just take it for granted without knowing what is happening behind the scenes).
With Roon now drowning under the weight of all the extra money from parent company Harman, I wonder if they would be interested in taking over responsibility for this service from you, perhaps in exchange for some wine tokens?
Thank you @BrianW I’ll start with these.

I’m a bit confused as to present state of things. Not working for me, for a week or so now. A shame, if it’s gone.
Sorry Taavi I faced (again) a major hardware fault of Raspberry Pi hosting the service
