# This script is a companion of the script youtube-music-live.sh. Assuming the MUSIC_PATH is an icecast2 stream, The script will fetch the metadata tag StreamTitle every 5 seconds and update the file /tmp/artist, /tmp/title. Generally, the StreamTitle should be like "artist - title", though sometimes there is only title. You may also update the files manually and ignore this script. Be sure to run this script after youtube-music-live.sh.

# You have to define music url.
