Icecast dev - Aug 2004 - fallback source give up and returns to original source

Hello,
I have a problem with icecast
a have a source+ a fallback source
when source disconnect after a network interruption, all lilsteners are
transfered to the fallback source
but then, a few seconds later, source come back and didn't get back its
previous listeners.

Is there a way to have this behaviour :
source disconnect => listeners transfered to fallback
source reconnects => fallback source listeners transfered to source

first step is working well. I saw a thread on the list about some patches from
Melanie.
Is this behaviour possible?
(I'm using latest icecast from Karl)

Thanks
Chris

No record of the previous source the client was connected is stored, so
it's impossible to extract only those users who have moved over.

not yet, there's a question on how best to achieve this generally,
handling cascading fallbacks make it awkward.

You can explicitly move all users via the admin interface, my version
does allow for running a nominated script at source start, which could
be a simple shell script containing curl 'moveclients' type command.

The relevant patches are now in (but not yet documented), you can do what you 
want with the current cvs version.
Just configure the source with
<fallback-override>1</fallback-override>

This patch (from Melanie) is going to be committed later today, at which point 
you could update from CVS and get the behaviour you want (it's not the 
default, you have to add a config option).
