List, Time and time again I am sure you get this question. I am trying to setup a radiostation, and here is what I am looking for: 1. Ability for people to "call in" with say, winamp+oddcast or simplecast. 2. Ability to change password for the caller at any time. I know by default that Icecast2 does not allow the sharing of mounts, so what about setting up the following: 1. /radio = main mount to listen on 2. /host = dj mount for encoding 3. /caller[1-10] = 10 mount points for up too 10 callers Then perhaps something that will take all audio from /host and /caller[1-10], mix it, and send to /radio. The server does not have a soundcard so if I could do it without a soundcard, that would be great. Also, can you specify a password for each mount, and is there any way to dynamically change the password? If this is not enough information, please let me know.

What about dynamic passwords? How does one do that? I read in a forum that a 'kill -HUP' on the PID will reload the config, but also read that it doesn't reload the entire config. Do you have any recommendations on what apps to use? thanks, chris --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

For that, you'll need to use an external program (which could connect to icecast, fetch all the streams, mix then, encode them, and send the encoding back to icecast). There's no reason for this to require a sound card.
