Icecast Streaming Media Server

[Anonymous]

Hello karlH,

have a Master - Salve Relay, runs well, but when the 500 slots of Master MP /stream are full and the 501 listener connects he is not forwarded automatically to Slave Server to start here the slave mount /stream.

The player (Winamp) shows only "max listeners reached" What's wrong?

Should it be confirued as single mountpount relay? But single point relay is only possible, if maser is not full, otherwise slave icecast cannot connectet to.


Regards,
Adam

The slave needs to register with the master, you should see that happening in the master log file, if not then it may be down to missing tags in the slave xml (master-relay-auth, master-redirect) and/or a missing max-redirect-slaves in the master xml.

karlH,

thanks a lot but where these paramters "master-relay-auth, master-redirect and/or max-redirect-slaves" are described?

These tags are not mentioned here:
http://www.icecast.org/docs/icecast-2.3.1/icecast2_config_file.html#relay

On Master:
<authentication>
<relay-user> AVAILABLE</relay-user>
<relay-password>set</relay-password>
</authentication>

This data are used then on the slave config for <master-username> and
<master-password>. That works fine.

If there are more paramteres to set, so a docu would be fine

Thanks in advance.

karlH: Please try to add into your next revision the stats.xml output of number of unique clients means unique ips.

These are only in my branch work, so they won't be mentioned in the 2.3.1 docs. The current implementation is fairly early work so it isn't documented much anyway, I've mentioned them in the sample xml files that get shipped with the tarball.
