Marc,
Lines with a <!-- and --> are commented and not used. You need to remove
these around the mount items.
The <<!-- looks like it needs fixing.

Subject: RE: [Icecast] Icecast help
Hi Mark,
I’m subscribed to this group also. Icecast Server supports fallback mounts to
handle this situation. We have this configured for some of our stream hosting
customers. Something like this is configured in the icecast.xml...
<mount>
<mount-name>/auto.aac</mount-name>
<hidden>0</hidden>
</mount>
<mount>
<mount-name>/live.aac</mount-name>
<fallback-mount>/auto.aac</fallback-mount>
<fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
<hidden>0</hidden>
</mount>
<mount>
<mount-name>/listen.aac</mount-name>
<fallback-mount>/live.aac</fallback-mount>
<fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
<hidden>0</hidden>
</mount>
Your automation sends to /auto.aac, you advertise /listen.aac for the listeners
to connect to. DJ's connect to /live.aac.
Change or remove the ".aac" depending on codec.
Regards,
Ross.
