 |
|
Hi there.
I host many djs and I'd like to know how can I add specific mountpoints in icecast.xml without starting and stopping the server in order to read the xml file and the new mount point to become live - ready to broadcast...
Is there another way, or does the server reads the icecast.xml, let say every 15 minutes so I just have to edit the xml file and wait for some time?
Regards
Panos |

you can send a HUP signal to tell icecast to reread reread the xml setup, mount information will be updated. Some have used my branch work to use the wildcard mount-name specification to create a single mount definition which can be used to refer to several streaming mountpoints.

...wel it is not the easiest thing for a non linux user!
I have not tested your branch yet 
I hope it is stable as the current release of icecast.
Thanx once again.

The only place a HUP won't work is win32, so it's not just a linux thing. You can use the admin page in my branch to trigger the reload as well (that also works in win32).
