Hello, With Icecast1 existed the functionality to have the server feed static content from disk. It generated a playlist file for the one file passed to it, and off things went. I googled around a bit and found people saying it was possible to do this with icecast2, but the one outside link I found was now invalid. Are there any pointers about how to add static content? Does it work similiar to the older icecast1 where I can point it to an entire directory? I think I can generate the m3u files with php, just as long as icecast2 can stream the files. -- // Ethan O'Toole // http://users.757.org/~ethan
You just make a config entry in the icecast2 xml file saying which directory to use as the web root. e.g. if you give /local/music, then a file called /local/music/ska/Specials.ogg would be streamed from the url http://your.server:8000/ska/Specials.ogg I don't think it makes the m3u/pls files, but you can do that in the script that makes your web pages like you say.
