We use ZaraStudio for broadcasting to the main server. It's usually
emitting music.

When we want a live broadcast, we make another temporary mount point where
we send our program. Then, Zara is programmed to pick that mount (as a
listener) and relays the live event to the main server.

Of course we use mixers in the studio and outside, (we broadcast soccer
matches) but use extra stream/mount in between, so we don't have to
disconnect ZaraStudio from the main server. (At the expense of some more
delay.)

Oh, and we use butt (butt.sf.net) as source client at the studio and
outdoor. (It's so simple!)

Cheers,
