Icecast Streaming Media Server

[mediaman]

hello,

i tried various settings to set an intro one user should hear before the stream. also i tried to set a file as fallback mount, if the stream shuts down, the user should hear a stored file on the server.

i tried this:

<mount>
<mount-name>/stream.ogg</mount-name>
<username>me</username>
<password>donthack</password>
<max-listeners>300</max-listeners>
<intro>/hitskit.ogg</intro>
<fallback-mount>/hitskit.ogg</fallback-mount>
<fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
<fallback-when-full>1</fallback-when-full>
<charset>ISO8859-1</charset>
<public>1</public>
<stream-name>My audio stream</stream-name>
<stream-description>My audio description</stream-description>
<stream-url>http://some.place.com</stream-url>
<genre>good stuff</genre>
<bitrate>128</bitrate>
<type>application/ogg</type>
<subtype>vorbis</subtype>
<hidden>1</hidden>
<burst-size>65536</burst-size>
<mp3-metadata-interval>4096</mp3-metadata-interval>
<authentication type="htpasswd">
<option name="filename" value="myauth"/>
<option name="allow_duplicate_users" value="0"/>
</authentication>
<on-connect>/home/icecast/bin/source-start</on-connect>
<on-disconnect>/home/icecast/bin/source-end</on-disconnect>
</mount>

stream is working, but not the intro neither the fallback

would appreciate some help
thx

There is a lot defined in that mount, some of which does not make sense like charset. Check that you see these settings being reported in the error log, the max listener is a good one to check. it should be 300 here but if you have it commented out then the max listeners will be unlimited or -1.

now it looks like this:

<mount>
<mount-name>/stream.ogg</mount-name>
<username>me</username>
<password>donthack</password>
<intro>/hitskit.ogg</intro>
<on-connect>/home/icecast/bin/source-start</on-connect>
<on-disconnect>/home/icecast/bin/source-end</on-disconnect>
</mount>

and the path:

<paths>
<!-- basedir is only used if chroot is enabled -->
<basedir>/etc/icecast2</basedir>

<logdir>/var/log/icecast2</logdir>
<webroot>/etc/icecast2/web</webroot>
<adminroot>/usr/share/icecast2/admin</adminroot>

<alias source="/" dest="/status.xsl"/>
</paths>

i tried /usr/share/icecast2/web as webroot destination and also the /etc/icecast2/web .. still no intro is playin if some user connects .. just the normal stream

any suggestions?

Check your error log (increase the log level if you must) but check the settings being applied, you should see intro, on-connect and on-disconnect setting applied

i checked the error.log .. but it doesnt help me at all, no errors in case of the "intro" or "fallback" are listed.. level of error logs is 4

here is the newest error.log
