[Icecast] fallback mount points?

[Jonathan]

Hello, this is coming from our radio station's icecast config. change at 
your needs and feel free to use this.
     <mount>
         <mount-name>/stream.mp3</mount-name>
         <fallback-mount>/live.mp3</fallback-mount>
         <fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
         <hidden>1</hidden>
     </mount>
     <mount>
         <mount-name>/live.mp3</mount-name>
         <password>hackmemore</password>
         <max-listeners>100</max-listeners>
         <fallback-mount>/autodj.mp3</fallback-mount>
         <fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
         <fallback-when-full>1</fallback-when-full>
         <hidden>0</hidden>
     </mount>
     <mount>
         <mount-name>/autodj.mp3</mount-name>
         <intro>/kjsc-intro.mp3</intro>
<fallback-mount>/kjscradio-down.mp3</fallback-mount>
         <fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
         <hidden>1</hidden>
     </mount>
Just to let you know, the fallback-mount is the mount that it's going to 
fallback on if that mount is not available. think of it as a  chane. for 
us, we have our stream mountpoint which is "/stream.mp3" which the 
listener connects to and that is only for the listener and that is 
falling back to either "/live.mp3" if we are doing a show, or, if not, 
then "/autodj.mp3" If our automation shuts down for any reason and BTW, 
we are using liquidsoap for all of the automation then, it will put the 
listener to that mount point. so, all of it is like a chane if you think 
of it that way. the "<fallback-override>" value is telling icecast to 
put the listener to the fallback-mount if that mountpoint gets 
disconnected. If that option is not set, then it will just go dead and 
the listener would have to connect to the top level mountpoint yet again 
to make the listener fallback to the correct mountpoint. If you need any 
help with all of this, let me know.
