...isy-chaining fallback sources. The primary souce would be used by various broadcasters to send their programming, it's fallback would be a script driven automatic playlist and it's fallback would be a jingle loop. This way, there is programming if a broadcaster failed to connect and the interstices between that "emergency programming" from scripts would be filled by jingles. In no case would clients get disconnected anymore. The obvious pitfall and it's non-obvious solution is that, on stream connect, I appear to steal the clients from it's fallback. Because of the way...
