For an .mp3 file to be used as the theme song for a program I created the personalized cover with mp3 tag, in the bottom box of radioboss it appears but when it goes streaming there is only the title and not my cover.
Personalized cover.

I understand that radioboss is not able to send a personalized image to an app or website even though it appears in the box below.
RadioBOSS is able to send it, the problem is that there's no common protocol to send artwork, and player support for that is also very poor (e.g. almost no players read artwork from Shoutcast or Icecast).
The artwork can be displayed separately on your web site, here's an example script: https://www.djsoft.net/community/th...ent-track-title-cover-art-recent-tracks.6352/

For a while I tested the automatic direction of your most famous competitor but it was very simple, in the broadcast screen all I had to do was put the flag on send covers and the covers I had associated with each song appeared on the site and in the app, including personalized ones. Practically every live broadcast had its own cover which was broadcast regularly.
You can do it in RadioBOSS Cloud - there are ready to use widgets that require no configuration and you can copy-paste them into your web site. Widgets can display track titles, cover artwork etc.
RadioBOSS, the desktop software, does not have any connection to your web site (it's not possible, in general case), until you configure Nowplaying Export, as decribed in the link above.

Hi if you want to do this you will either need Radio Boss Cloud or a custom website the latter is not written for you and first is good starting place but if you want more customization then you will need a stream that functions. Even with this their ae proems getting a https version of stream its why we are still all stuck-on http websites to get it working.

Sorry but I'm having a hard time understanding the translation. I have the radioboss advanced control room, an app and an https site that broadcasts on shoutcast v1. With mp3 tag I customize a cover for the theme song of a particular program and I view it at the bottom but on the app I see the original cover linked to the original song. What do I need to fix it? Why does Mb studio do this?
RadioBOSS will send the cover that presents in the tag of the track - if you edited it with mp3tag (by the way, RadioBOSS starting with version 7.0 also able to edit artwork) then it's what will be sent.
Looks like your app doesn't read the artwork but instead searches it based on artist/title.

Be patient, I would like to understand better, the gentleman who takes care of my app tells me "that the cover must be published on a web or ftp space only in this way will he be able to take it for publication in the app, this job should be done by the director." What should I report? Thank you

You can use the FTP upload or HTTP notifications feature to transfer artwork to your server: https://manual.djsoft.net/radioboss/en/log_files___reports.htm
The error you see when uploading it - looks like some permission issue (FTP user doesn't have write rights).

now rb sends the covers to the link but to upload them to the app from this link I was told that you need a licensed software to be able to send them on ios and android, do you know one that isn't too expensive?
I'm not sure what the app does, but if you need to display the cover art there, and the app is a custom development that you have control over, you can make it read the artwork file from your server.
