I'm using icecast2 and ices2, and was wondering if it is possible to have a "greetings" file to be played (eg. Station ID) prior to listening to audio stream from playlist (where-ever position it is playing from).... I checked conf examples, but didn't see anything that stood out...

Maybe what you could do is create a .pls playlist file, which contained first an intro file, then secondly connected to the live stream.

How about having a config setting for Icecast which allows you to specify bumper track URLs to be sent in the .m3u files Icecast generates for listeners? This seems simple enough to write...
