I've been thinking more about this. It would be really nice if Icecast could add a port to a mountpoint and emulate whatever information Shoutcast requests when it relays a shoutcast stream. This way Shoutcast could relay Icecast streams.

I realize that this is backwards! However, several organizations that want to use our streams use Shoutcast, I really don't want to setup shoutcast and Icecast, but unless I can relay an Icecast stream with Shoutcast, I'm going to have to.

They're not really well documented, patches to explain this a bit better would be appreciated. I'm also not sure how well tested this is, I know I've never tried to use shoutcast, because... well, I'd much rather use icecast :-) Anyway, I think this should be possible just by configuring icecast, no new features needed.

Great, thanks for the info... However... Like you said, I can't find much on
it...
Here's the section from the icecast_full.xml file...
<!-- Aliases: treat requests for 'source' path as being for
'dest'
path
May be made specific to a port or bound address using the
"port"
and "bind-address" attributes.
-->
<!--
<alias source="/foo" dest="/bar"/>
-->
<!-- Aliases: can also be used for simple redirections as well,
this example will redirect all requests for http://server:port/
to
the status page
-->
<alias source="/" dest="/status.xsl"/>
Anyone have any more information on how to bind an alias to a specific port?
Thanks,
Fred
