 Posted: Tue Sep 25, 2007 1:32 am Post subject: Saving bandwidth when there are zero listeners |
 |
|
I have my home computer A (with oddcast) always broadcasting to my server B (in another location, with icecast2). Listeners sometimes log into B to listen to my stream. I'd like to know how to configure either oddcast or icecast2 so that if no listeners are logged into B, then A will not bother sending any data to B. Is that possible?
I tried setting relays-on-demand to 1, but it doesn't seem to affect anything since there are no relays in the chain. |

Run an icecast locally, and have oddcast connect to that one. Then configured the remote icecast to relay the stream from your local icecast. The remote icecast relay can be then configured as on-demand
