[SOLVED] xterm title while streaming with MPlayer

I use MPlayer to stream internet radio through xterm(aterm) is there a cmd or bash to update and display current track in the xterm title bar?

Thank you.

its possible noone knows. stop bumping this for no reason. use the time you spend bumping more appropriately. try the mplayer help mailing lists/irc etc. if you find out post the solution post it here.

Re: [SOLVED] xterm title while streaming with MPlayer

btw i got this working:

create file and add this;

#!/bin/sh
mplayer http://Station echo "ICY Info: StreamTitle='Artist - Song Title';StreamUrl='';" | sed "s/StreamTitle='\([^']*\)/\0\x1B]0;\1\a/" ;sleep 1

were http://Station is your internet url,
then run with x/aterm thus: "aterm -e sh script"
