Hello, Is it possible to stream a static file to a client before the real stream? I'd like to setup a live stream that would have a short station promotion or advertisement file before the real stream starts. I have checked the Icecast2 & Ices2 documentation but haven't found anything useful - is this possible at all?

Hi: AFAIK, this isn't possible directly with icecast, but if you organise to have the file servable by either icecast's fileserve feature or a webserver, you can call it in your playlist before the actual stream, achieving the same effect, excepting of course the fact that users in the know will be able to skip to the next track in their player.
