Hi all,
I posted this message before on icecast-dev, but I guess it's more
appropiate here.
First of all thanks again for icecast2. It keeps surprising me how easy and
stable it is to use!
I'm working with icecast2 from SVN now (revision 10692) and it's mount
point
features. I've created the top mount point '/play.ogg' so we have
only one main
mount point for users to tune into.
Now this /play.ogg has the fallback /live.ogg and /live.ogg has the fallback
/playlist.ogg. In the config file I added metadata for the /play.ogg mount
point that looks like this:
<mount>
<mount-name>/play.ogg</mount-name>
<stream-name>Beathead Broadcasts</stream-name>
<stream-description>Homebrew Broadcasts for Hip
Beatheads</stream-description>
<stream-url>www.beathead.net</stream-url>
<genre>beats</genre>
<fallback-mount>/live.ogg</fallback-mount>
<fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
<fallback-when-full>1</fallback-when-full>
<hidden>0</hidden>
<no-yp>0</no-yp>
</mount>
Unfortunately, when I look at the /play.ogg metadata in status.xsl, it is al
empty.
Do I use the wrong metadata tags in the config or is this normal behaviour for
a non-connected mount which only serves as main entry mount point?
Thanks for reading and any reaction that may follow.
Regards,
Frank Keijzers

You may want to have /play.ogg as a local relay of /playlist.ogg with /live.ogg configured for fallback/override. karl.
Have now set the log to level 4 and viewed the output when the stream stops/starts. Can't see any errors though. I'm getting: source/source_move_clients passing 1 listeners to "/fallback.mp3" on stream stop and: source/source_move_clients passing 1 listeners to "/studio" when the stream starts again, so looks like it's working. Could it be the client at fault? Also, I did notice that sometimes (very occasionally) it will actually work but takes about 3 to 4 minutes to action. I tried the test again but it doesn't work every time only works occasionally. Any ideas? I can show you the logs if you like. Thanks very much for the help it's appreciated, Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karl Heyes" <karl@xiph.org> To: "paranoid" <paranoid@dds.nl> Cc: <icecast@xiph.org> Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2006 8:41 PM Subject: Re: [Icecast] [Icecast-dev] metadata fallback mounts> paranoid wrote: >> >> Hi all, > >> First of all thanks again for icecast2.
