Hi, I'm pretty sure this isn't going to be possible, but I'll ask. I'd like to add a <stream-title> to my fallback mount so when the main stream mount drops and the fallback kicks in, that the connected player shows a different title. Then back again, of course. Thank you! -- That Jack Elliott Director of Classical Music Programming KPOV 88.9 FM High Desert Community radio (541) 848 7021

Icecast just relays that information. As soon as the client hits the fallback stream the metadata of the fallback stream is sent to the client. So, best advice would be to check the configuration of the fallback's source client.

In our case, the fallback is an mp3 file. Is there a specific metadata "tag" I should use for the identifying string? -- That Jack Elliott Director of Classical Music Programming KPOV 88.9 FM High Desert Community radio (541) 848 7021
