Hi2all, I’m new in Icecast, yesterday I’ve migrated from SHOUTcast.
I have a couple of questions regarding some features.

- Is there a possibility to redirect listeners from mount point /live if it’s unavailable to mount point /nonstop (witch uses ices as encoder and is up 24/7)

- Can I setup a backup file on /live mount point, so it will be always up with no stream breaks.

Thanks for helping and sorry for my awful English.

Yes, it's possible using the <fallback-mount> directive, check the syntax here : http://www.icecast.org/docs/icecast-2.3.1/icecast2_config_file.html#mount

The way you want it is probably have your live mount point falling back on nonstop, falling back to a static file in case of a failure.

Thanks, so can I use an static file in <fallback-mount> string? I’d like to use an mp3-file.
