I mean, not just "autofades", which somehow sound a little bit crazy - but really offering them an interface so they can adjust the crossfading, mix this together with sounders etc. I've seen this technique once here at a local radio station and was quite impressed. But for this to work the server would need to send low-quality-audio to the DJ who could then make the crossfades etc, transmit this data back to the server and the server then executes the crossfades etc. on the real sondfiles on the server. Hmm - sounds interesting :-)) But is there already a software-solution for this?

Yes there is - both LiveIce and mpegmixer used a terminal as an interface - telnet/ssh into the box and control it all. Of course back when mpegmixer was released (1996) there was no streaming solutions available so you could only remotely control stuff within earshot ;-)> > But there is no real "remote DJ"-software yet, is there?
