Liquidsoap tag encoding

Good afternoon.

I have a problem with Liquidsoap. It sends cyrillic metadata to Icecast like: Ария - Штиль Please help me how I can change this encoding?

Best Regards, Danila.

Solution

  • Try adding encoding = "UTF-8" to the parameters of output.icecast() !

    Liquidsoap API Reference for output.icecast() :

    encoding (string – defaults to ""): Encoding used to send metadata. If empty, defaults to “UTF-8” for “http” protocol and “ISO-8859-1” for “icy” protocol.
