A long time ago (probably 1.3 days,) I remember that it was possible to telnet to the Icecast server port, authenticate, and from there issue a command to dump a live stream to a file. Is this still possible with Icecast 2.1 and if so, could somebody give me a quick refresher on how it is done? Thanks, -mp BTW, kudos on the new release. Very nice work.
Hi: If you set up a <mount> section for the specific mountpoint you want to dump, you can specify a dumpfile there. However, there doesn't seem to be any way to get it to name the file based on date or an;ything. Not sure if it overwrites or appends (I think it might append), but I do know that it did at least used to result in invalid ogg files at times if you had to reconnect. But it's awhile since I've messed with it.
