No album art after http play

I have a new Arylic Up2stream S50 Pro+ device. It’s working pretty well. I can control it from my PC via the http interface, by sending it commands such as
http://192.168.0.224/httpapi.asp?command=setPlayerCmd:vol:75

When I play Radio Paradise on my iPad and AirPlay it over to the S50, everything works great and in particular I see album art in the Acrylic web interface at http://192.168.0.224/index.html.

But… if I change what to play via setPlayerCmd:play, for instance
http://192.168.0.224/httpapi.asp?command=setPlayerCmd:play:http://stream.radioparadise.com/aac-128
that takes effect but does not show album art. I can still control the volume from the web interface, but otherwise the interface is not “live”.

Anybody have any advice on how to get setPlayerCmd:play work better?

You could check out the integrated personal radio in web interface, and you could set desired cover for the station.
