I understand that is the intent, what I am wondering is what is
currently reading in those files, putting them into a continuous
stream of music, and sending the stream to the server? You probably
have some program such as ices, darkice, or ezstream (there are many
other possibilities) set up to be your stream source. If you want two
streams, you need to set up two stream sources, each connecting to a
different mount point.
