What’s new in CLEVER - HTML5 Radio Player With History - Shoutcast and Icecast 2.6.2

Version 2.6.2 · Apr 13, 2026 Latest

What it does

Online radio stations and music sites often need a player that does more than play audio. Listeners want to know what is on air and what they just heard. This plugin handles both jobs: it pulls the current song title and artist image from your stream automatically, and its history feature lets visitors look back at tracks that played earlier. Setup centers on your radio stream URL, so you do not have to build anything by hand.

The player works with Shoutcast and Icecast servers, playing MP3 streams in all browsers and AAC streams in browsers that support it. It is built with HTML, CSS and JavaScript, runs on iOS and Android, and adapts to different screen sizes. More than 35 parameters let you adjust colors, layout, fonts and behavior. You can stretch the player to the full width of its container, or switch off responsive behavior for fixed-width or custom layouts.

Best for

Internet radio stations using Shoutcast or Icecast
