Icecast Streaming Media Server

[humanclay]

I am running Icecast 2.3.2 KH-21a with a master-update-interval of 5 seconds and am using <relay> tags for each individual stream.

This works well as a general rule for the server, however I have a few specific mountpoints that I would like to have an update-interval of 1 second. Is it possible to do something like this?

<relay>
<local-mount>/mount.ogg</local-mount>
<username>relay</username>
<password>password</password>
<mount>/admin/streams?mount=/mount.ogg</mount>
<on-demand>0</on-demand>
<master>
<server>IP</server>
<port>8000</port>
</master>

<update-interval>1</update-interval>
</relay>

?

add <retry-delay>1</retry-delay> to <relay>

Great, thanks that works well.

I have one more question about relays. I am seeing this occasionally in the logs:

[2010-03-16 11:01:32] INFO source/source_shutdown Source "/mount.aac" exiting
[2010-03-16 11:01:32] INFO slave/relay_read standing by to restart relay on /mount.aac

What does the "standing by to restart relay" mean? Why does it happen and what causes it to occur?

Thanks!

The source has shut down, so icecast is about to restart the connection to the relay. As to why the source shut down, you would have to check earlier in the log, examples are source timeout or master closed the connection.
