Can ises stream two different playlists on two different mount points?
If yes, where I can find config example.
If no, what source client could do this?

Thanx.

i guess u are looking for something like this
with several mountpoints:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ices>
<background>0</background>
<logpath>/usr/local/icecast2/logs</logpath>
<logfile>ices.log</logfile>
<loglevel>4</loglevel>
<consolelog>0</consolelog>
<pidfile>/usr/local/icecast2/ices.pid</pidfile>

if the playlists are different then you'll need two xml files, one for each ices to refer to each playlist.

[AlexIT]

Playlists are different.
So I must run two ices?

[karlH]

yes, if it wasn't clear. Each ices processes an input, 2 playlists means 2 inputs and therefore 2 ices processes are required.

What source client could do this?
Or its's absolutely impossible?

[karlH]

I don't know of any but it's not impossible but having multiple source clients running concurrently is not an issue as it takes the same resources to create the streams.
