Thank you for your help. I tried once more but somehow i don't get it.
Here's my code:
binding the JavaFX media player to variable "player"..
var player =
     MediaPlayer {
       repeatCount:MediaPlayer.REPEAT_FOREVER
        media : Media {source:mp3RadioStream}
starting playing the stream when user clicks in a rectangle area
and (hopefully ever printing some metadata :-) ..
Rectangle {
              opacity: 0.0
              x: 10 y: 80 width: 128 height: 126
               onMouseClicked: function(e:MouseEvent):Void
                    println("mouse clicked ..");
                    println("setting radio stream..");
                    player.media = Media {source: mp3RadioStream};
                    println("play init..");
                    player.play();
                    println("playing..");
                    // printing some metadata
                     for (a in player.media.metadata) {
                        println("metadata key: {a.key} , value: {a.value}");
               }Any help, especially some explicit code example would be very appreciated..
It has to be a silly error on my side but i really dont get it :-/
Tried to play the mp3 stream with winamp an the stream definitly has some metadata like
artist , trackname..
