hello I have the following problem: is it possible to have several ices "feed" mp3 files to only one icecast process ? or do I have to make pais - ices/icecast - in order to have several streams on my machine ? thanks, petre -- Petre Bandac - petre@kgb.ro

Whether those come from the same running source client, relays from separate machines or multiple source clients is up to you. karl.

For each ices, you'll have a different config file that will specify a different mountpoint. The mountpoint is what uniquely specifies the stream that the client wants to connect to. Mike
ok, correct me where I'm wrong: - the <sources> tag defines max ices processes can feed icecast - several ices sources are sent to the same icecast process, but on different ports - the icecast process is configured with <relay> <server>127.0.0.1</server> ..... </relay> for each ices instance ? or with mount ? thanks, petre On 29 Sep 2005 14:34:07 +0100 Anno Domini, the honourable Karl Heyes wrote using one of his keyboards:> On Thu, 2005-09-29 at 14:16, Petre Bandac wrote: > > hello > > > > I have the following problem: is it possible to have several ices > > "feed" mp3 files to only one icecast process ? or do I have to make > > pais > > - ices/icecast - in order to have several streams on my machine ? > > a single icecast can handle multiple streams, but use a unique > mountpoint to identify each stream. eg /low and /high.
