Pull Request #9 Exacerbates Issue #2 and #3: A New Challenge with Shoutcast V1 Streams

In recent times, the community has been grappling with issues related to Shoutcast V1 streams. The latest pull request, #9, has unfortunately exacerbated the problem, causing streams to be incorrectly marked as offline. In this article, we will delve into the details of the issue, analyze the logs, and explore possible solutions to resolve this problem.

When attempting to play Shoutcast V1 streams, the system returns an error message indicating that the stream is offline. However, the Discord debug webhook logs reveal a different story. The logs show that the webhook is successfully posting to the Discord API, but the stream is still being marked as offline.

Let's take a closer look at the logs to understand what's happening:
