Hey everyone,

I am new here but wondered if anyone could help me, I want to create something that I have not seen done anywhere else, I know it must be easily possible but may need a little help with it.

I run a couple of internet radio stations, I want to be able to have an LCD display that can display the current song and the number of listeners so I can easily keep track of if the station is on air or not.
I have done lots and lots of searching into what I will require but not found a definitive answer, it would appear the display and the USB controller for it come separately? Does anyone know where I could order these from in the UK? And is Smartie able to extract this information from a shoutcast server to display it on the display?

I would really appreciate any help anyone could provide.

Thanks
Ste Crook

I can't be sure for the UK market...

For the server part I can say that you (or someone else) need to create a plugin which can read the server info and report it to the display.
