[Icecast] Always question about live and playlist

[LeBoUc Bob]

Hi everyone,

My first mail was: 
"I'm a french user of icecast2 on a distant serveur.
I have 1 stream running on the serveur (with ices) that play random mp3 and when i want to do a live i connect my PC (winamp+oddcastv3) to the icecast and then i have 2 stream on the icecast serveur. The question is "How can i replace the first stream (playlist) by my live stream, and when i've finished the live, the playlist hang on and the listeners don't see anything".

I want to do that because actually i have to move all the listeners manually from the first stream to the live. And when a new listener conect i have to move it to. It's not usefull"

Some people give me some help but i don't eally understand what i have to do. I juste understand that the options wich could interst me (to resolve my prob) is the fallback option but thats all....
This is my icecast.xml config file if you can help me...

             first connects, thereby significantly reducing the startup 
             time for listeners that do substantial buffering. However,
             it also significantly increases latency between the source
             client and listening client.  For low-latency setups, you
             might want to disable this. -->
