Icecast - Jun 2023 - Auto rotation on day/hour or dump possible?

Hello,

I use/test now a log wrapper. 
He checks which log has already been sent. In this way it only sends the new
data it is fast and almost realtime.

This was the link that not work about log rotation in old mailing i found:
https://trac.xiph.org/ticket/2173

Thanks for the infomration about the KH version. I use it in the past for
flash/aac.

I test 2.5 version and have a very nice interface. 
It did crash once and also had some problems with https (stop after 3 seconds
after some weeks running fine)
using fallover mountpoints) Same as 2.4.4. 
Caused a lot by using fallover mountpoints. Without fallover, the https
stuttering problem does not arise.
 
Why is the stable relaease for 2.5 delayed so long?


Best regards,
Michel

This is most likely: 
https://gitlab.xiph.org/xiph/icecast-server/-/issues/2173

(It has been implemented and is part of the next release.)

I think those are not really related to this thread. Please feel free
to to open tickets for them.

Also the 3 seconds with TLS sound very much like the one bug that was
in OpenSSL at some point. Newer versions of OpenSSL have that fixed, so
please check if it's still happening before filing a report. :)
