Icecast - Jan 2005 - Question about live and playlist

Hi everyone,

I'm a french user of icecast2 on a distant serveur.
I have 1 stream running on the serveur (with ices) that play random mp3 and when
i want to do a live i connect my PC (winamp+oddcastv3) to the icecast and then i
have 2 stream on the icecast serveur. The question is "How can i replace
the first stream (playlist) by my live stream, and when i've finished the
live, the playlist hang on and the listeners don't see anything".

I want to do that because actually i have to move all the listeners manually
from the first stream to the live. And when a new listener conect i have to move
it to. It's not usefull.

Thx if u can help me.

Romano

Assuming you can change the server config, it's easy: look at 
icecast2_config_file.html in the docs directory, specifically the 
fallback-mount and fallback-override directives.
