I run IceCast 2.3.2 at Port Stephens FM radio station for streaming our broadcast feed. Most things work fine but there is a small glitch somewhere that seems to drop the 'Source Level Stats' information after a few days. The application must be stopped then started again to reconnect the 'Source Level Stats'. It used to work fine some time back but not now. The main reason for the need for these stats is that they are requested from our studio music player (Station Playlist Studio) that collects current listener data for display on the studio computer showing the number of current listeners. I have not found a solution for this version 2.3.2 of IceCast. I have tried to download and install a newer IceCast version 2.4.0 and 2.4.1, in the hope that a patch has been provided, but when I expand the zip files there is no executable file that runs the new version. What am I doing wrong? I hope someone can help. Thanks John -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

(The config is located at the current dir, in the etc folder and you might want to replace it with your config file.)
When you say source level stats... are you saying that you have a separate "Thing" doing this and it suddenly disconnects at some point? Or is it part of IceCast?
