Hi, You would need to use several tutorials and some custom code to pull the meta data from a Shoutcast stream and then push it to an iOS device. A couple of tutorials to look at [How to add ID3 tags into a iOS stream when onTextData events are found](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-convert-ontextdata-events-in-a-live-or-vod-stream-to-timed-events-id3-tags-in-an-apple-hls-stream%2528ID3-tags%2529-in-an-Apple-HLS-stream) [How to debug the events on an iOS device](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-debug-timed-data-events-id3-tags-from-apple-hls-streams-in-ios-devices%2528ID3-tags%2529-from-Apple-HLS-streams-in-iOS-devices) [One which can be used to pull meta data from a stream](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-imediastreamactionnotify3-interface-to-listen-for-rtmp-stream-events-includes-codec-info%2528includes-codec-info%2529) If you feel like you need help setting all this up, you might want to post a request to the[find a consultant forum](http://community.wowza.com/c/-/7) Regards, Salvadore ---

You may need to use a player that exposes the metadata in javascript methods (JW Player does this) or modify the example player to expose the metadata in a javascript method. You can then use javascript to display the data on the page. See the [example at the bottom of this page](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-jw-player-with-wowza-streaming-engine#rtmp_hls_abr_example), for how to get the jw player metadata in a javascript method. Again, if you need assistance setting this up, you can post a request to the [find a consultant forum](http://community.wowza.com/c/-/7) Regards, Salvadore ---
