[Icecast] Chrome not allowing mixed content anymore

Hi all,

Can you explain the use case here a bit more? I think I'm missing something
in my understanding.

If you enable TLS/HTTPS, you should enable it on a different port (eg. 443)
and keep your existing HTTP port for Icecast so that your stations will
continue to work in external players (Winamp, playlists, VLC, etc.).
However, you should update all embedded links to your stream on your
website(s) and point them to the new HTTPS port.

Is the problem that your streams are embedded on many websites outside of
your control?

Thanks,
Albert
