Known Issues

This file will include the majority of the known issues we're aware of with AzuraCast and that are in the stages of review / investigation / fixing. We don't provide a date on the fixes but rest assured we're aware of them.


Long-Term Ongoing Issues

  • When some live DJ broadcasting software connects to stream, only the first metadata update is received, rather than the initial metadata when the client connects. This is often reported as AzuraCast "missing" the first song that a DJ broadcasts. This is an upstream issue with Liquidsoap that we are continuing to follow. The easy workaround for most users is to connect while playing a very short track (such as an intro or station ID), then immediately transition to another song after connecting, which triggers a second metadata update and fixes the issue.

  • The WebDJ feature, on some browsers and in some situations, can broadcast sound that seems "crackly" and intermittent to stream listeners. This is a known issue, but the cause of it is currently unknown. #5116

  • Many users have requested the ability for Liquidsoap to skip to the next song automatically after a DJ disconnects. This is also an upstream issue with Liquidsoap that we are continuing to follow.
