Icecast - Feb 2005 - A message from a beginner

I have icecast up and running. I think with the correct
configuration.
Now I am not clear on the client playlist. I am using  ices-0.4. How
do I build the playlist. The documentation talks about perl and
python. 
pointers in the right direction appreciation.

Cheers

Hi,

Well, you can either have a regular text file containing a list of files to 
be played, one per line, or you can have perl or python-based scripts.  And 
I believe that development code also supports the simple scripting used in 
Ices2 (i.e. write it in anything and have it output the name of the next 
file to be played).

There may be other options, not sure, but these should suit most needs.

Geoff.
