Hey folks. Let's say I want max 5 listeners on my station. How to do that?

Define <max-listeners> with a value of 5 in the <mount> section for your stream. The default <clients> is about 256 so you don't need to increase that for just a limit of 5.

Well add one, you have have any number of them but I guess you only have 1 stream. The sample xml files and the documentation show what can by put in them but all you need is the mount name and max-listeners

Hi there.

How to set up maximum count of listeners on entire server? I want to create few mountpoints (MP3, AAC, OGG) and I don't want to applying limit on every mountpoint, but on entire server.

Thanks for all the help.
