I did some searching on this, and it appears not to be possible... but I thought I'd check the collective wisdom here. Is there a way LSL can get the parcel URL? I want to be able to display the ID3 tag information from the currently playing song, but to do so, I need the stream URL. This works fine if the same stream is always on, but when I change URLs, I have to go in and manually make the change to the script, too. Seems I should be able to automate this... somehow.

Any thoughts are welcome!

Your searching is right, there's no LSL function to get the parcel's music URL, only the media (video) URL is accessible. So you basically have to store the music URL at the time it is set. Pretty much any radio script should be able to do this but I personally use a modified version of Bucky's free radio script, the original should still be available on this forum.
