Hi all. I finally got my automating stream working. now, I do have a question
for you all regarding fallback mount. I believe I have them setup correctly. but
what I would want to do is when I go to
http://kjscradio.com:8000/stream.mp3.m3u, I would like it to fallback to the
mount point that I have setup for my automation stream. Then, when a source
drops the connection from the /stream.mp3.m3u mount I would like it to go to my
automation mount for it. My .xml file config is below.

I would either comment out or remove the auth stuff if you're not using it, as it may make things not work because the auth fails. 3. You usually wouldn't want streams that fallback to each other and i've not tried it. It could very well confuse Icecast, particularly if neither stream is on at any given time. Having said all this, does it work? Geoff.
Okay, the mount for my automation still works. But, not for the fallback mount I have setup I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
