What does it do?
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
This script is an addition to the Discord Relay and will require version 3.0.14 or higher of the relay to work.
This add-on scans your parcel music stream continuously for changes of the stream URL, station, artist and title, and will send those updates to Discord. If an artist can be identified, the artist photo is displayed in your Discord channel.
A one-of-its-kind, the package contains an announcement board for venues, showing the artist photo, name and title of the currently played song, as well as the 4 last played songs in a nicely designed way. The display board only needs a single(!) prim/LI, dropping the clumsy, LI-heavy xy-text "solution" other DJ-boards use, in favor of a modern, lean, stylish technology. The modern PBR design comes with Blinn-Phong fallback textures and looks good in any club. The board is fully configurable to match the interior and genre of your venue, featuring configurable fonts, colors, and (animated) background images.
The package also comes with DJ-/Host-titlers displaying a configurable hovertext over their heads, that shows artist/title as well. The hovertext shows the currently played song, artist, listeners and peak listeners and can work as a display in your home, club or venue. The message being sent to Discord and the optional hovertext can be fully customized with message templates.
The system supports Shoutcast and Icecast streaming providers, indicating which is which next to the stream upon stream change.
Works on individually owned land as well as on group land with the help of a separate object that needs to be deeded to the land group.
The Club Display
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
The club display is a single prim in concert/stage/club design, which you can place near your DJ booth. The display will show a large artist photo for the currently playing song, as well as up to 5 miniatures with the previously played songs. The name of the song as well of the artist is displayed along with the artwork. The name of the station and the current listeners are displayed on top.
In order for the board to show the data, visitors need to have media enabled, and need to click the board once. This is standard SL functionality. For those guests who do not know how to enable it, a placeholder graphic shows what they need to do.
You can resize the display to suit your needs - it should display the song information gracefully at any side and aspect ratio. The original aspect ratio is 2:1, so any multiplier of that should do. Additionally, you can rez as many displays as you like.
The DJ-/Host-titlers
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
Your system comes with a rezzer for DJ- or host/staff titlers. The rezzer is designed to fit a club/stage environment. Upon clicking the box(!), the titler asks to attach to your avatar. It is a temporary, invisible attachment to your head. Once the current song changes, the titler will display the new song as hovertext, hovering over your head. The text follows the message template set above (see above). Upon every song change, the hovertext will change a short moment later.

Always the best products and the best support from Babel.
Thank you, Peter, for another amazing product.
The setup was simple: I just added a webhook to the sample configuration and I was up and running. It connected to discord immediately and gave the typical Babel splash message so you know it made it through.
The features added by Peter are fun at home, too, and make a much more pleasant display than that black mirror (tv).
If you own your own land or are in a group land setting this is a must-have for those using the supported streams.
A wonderful solution.
This is by far one of the best plug-and-play solutions I have found. It works well right out of the box and the instructions are clear. Customer service is prompt and supportive. Honestly couldn't ask for more. Highly recommend. Helps me keep track of what's playing in my region through my Discord. Will continue to look forward to future products.
