Posted: Thu Jan 28, 2010 2:43 pm Post subject: Switching from live to ices stream? |
|
|
So the thing is that I want to stream and i'm using ices0 on fbsd with a mp3 play list. But i want to stream "live shows" and i want to be on the same mount point. i know that i can move listeners but i need it to be automatic. Whenever i want to start streaming "live" on the mount-point where the ices0 streams? Priority on the source? some button i can put somewhere to disconnect current ices0 stream, and mainly this should be done without admin privileges ?
sorry fo my bad english
best regards!

What is wrong with setting a fallback-mount on the primary mount (fed with live content) to a mountpoint fed by ices0?

so using the fallback-mount options, how exactly the ices0 feed falls down, it is localy running with the icecast server? how can i automatically turn him down (without stoping it) during the live source is up, and then proceed with the ices0 stream on the same montpoint ?
or there is something i cant catch? |

you can keep ices0 running if you wish, it's the listeners that will move between mountpoints.

karlH yeah i know that but i need it to be on the same mount point, smth like kill ices0 scr till the timeout reconnects ices0 the new(live) source gets in and then this (live) ends ices0 continues with the autopilot But all this must be done without providing the admin pass!
that's what i have in mind are there any other ways? how do the other big stations manage with this or they are using more hardware  |

well that is just a extra step. If you want to provide a a single mountpoint for external access (eg for always listing in the directory) then add use a local relay eg
live - -> /live
ices0 --> /ices
listeners-> /stream
make /stream a relay of /ices and /live fallback-mount/override /ices,
listeners always go on /stream. This way the reading end of the relay bounces between the 2 mountpoints and listeners stay on /stream. In the example for the directory listing you would allow it on /stream but not on /live or /ices.
