Audio stream metadata
I was wondering if it is possible to read the metadata from an audio stream using Titanium.Media.AudioPlayer, or maybe there is module that allows for this?

Has anything changed here?

The famous Matt Gallagher Audio Streamer Class, which is used by Appcelerator and many others, to stream Shoutcast on iOS has a fork at https://github.com/DigitalDJ/AudioStreamer which can fetch metadata of the current artist and title from a Shoutcast stream as the demo shows. BUT - how one would be able to integrate it into an Appcelerator project is another matter.
Matt's class is contained in build's of iOS projects (look in build->Classes->AudioStreamer) but you'd need to be adapt at Objective-C to be able to hack the DigitalDJ AudioStreamer class and expose the required output to Appcelerator's AudioPlayer.
An interesting project for someone!
