Icecast - Dec 2004 - ices0 - restarting the playlist

We've got a 12-hour playlist running in ices0, which we'd like to
start exactly on the hour. If I'm using ices0 in the very basic
playlist mode, is there any way to trigger it to jump back to the
start of the playlist?

Could/should I use a HUP perhaps? Not sure if that would cause a
stream interruption for listeners.

Or would I need to use the python or perl playlist mode?

Thanks
Dan

There's no way to jump to the start, I'm afraid.

It wouldn't do anything at all.

This is the way to go. A module that does only this should be very
easy to write.
