Message-ID: hello all, I?m not sure if I could discuss this here in this mailing list, but it has to do with ezstream with ice cast. so, I do have ezstream set to read from a config file which reads from a .m3u play list that I have setup for my automation. Now, here?s a question. what if I wanted to add more songs to the play list and when I do that, I would like to have the songs to be added to the play list during in the middle of the reading of the play list? not when it loops again and re reads it. How would I go about doing this? and what would be the best way? I don?t have to reload and have it kill the automation process of the stream at all. I would like it to have it seamlessly add the songs to the playlist and read from the point in the play list. Thanks. all.

We've landed an important bug fix and we're looking forward to testing and feedback. As this is a beta release please discuss it on the icecast-dev mailing list. (Please do NOT cross-post to both lists, do NOT reply to the icecast mailing list, PLEASE reply to icecast-dev at xiph.org only). * Fixed a memory leak. Lost headers of stream because of wrong ref counter in associated refbuf objects. * avoid memory leak in _parse_mount() when "type"-attribute is set * Completed HTTP PUT support, send 100-continue-header, if client requests it. We need to adhere to HTTP1.1 here. * Updated web interface to be more XHTML compliant. * corrected Date-header format to conform the standard (see RFC1123). Thanks to cato for reporting. * Added a favicon to the web-root content * We now split handling of command line arguments into two parts. Only the critical part of getting the config file is done first (and -v as it prevents startup). The rest (only -b) is deferred. It allows us to log error messages to stderr even if the -b argument is passed. This is mainly for the case where the logfile or TCP port can't be opened. Please test this and also all other new 2.4 features and report to the dev mailing list with your observations and findings. Source tar ball: http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/icecast/icecast-2.4-beta4.tar.gz Windows build: http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/icecast/icecast_win32_2.4_beta4.zip Also there are experimental packages for many distributions built on OBS: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=icecast&project=home%3Adm8tbr The package repositories are here: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dm8tbr/ Those are not intended for production use and _none_ of the packages have been tested, so if it scares your cat, bites your dog and blows up - enjoy the fireworks.

There is no reason to run multiple ports. Icecast is perfectly capable to accept and serve multiple streams on one TCP port. Best regards Thomas B.
