[Icecast] fallback mount from diferent mountpoint

[Geoff Shang]

Hi:

The way to do this is to define a mountpoint as a relay of the other 
stream, then use that mount as your fallback mount.

Here's an example, based on your config:

<relay>
<server>stream1.chatlabel.de</server>
<port>6000</port>
<mount>/dsl</mount>
<local-mount>/fallback</local-mount>
<relay-shoutcast-metadata>0</relay-shoutcast-metadata>
</relay>

<mount>
         <mount-name>/</mount-name>
         <username>*****</username>
         <password>*****</password>
         <max-listeners>50</max-listeners>
         <dump-file>/tmp/dump-example1.mp3</dump-file>

<fallback-mount>/fallback</fallback-mount>
         <fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
     </mount>

Note that your relay will continually pull the stream from the remote 
server, even if no-one is listening to it.  The ability to have it only 
pull when required is slated for addition to Icecast in a future release.

Geoff.
