<font face="DejaVu Sans Mono">fallback-mount<br>
This optional value specifies a mountpoint that clients are
automatically moved to if the source shuts down or is not
streaming at the time a listener connects. Only one can be
listed in each mount and should refer to another mountpoint on
the same server that is streaming in the <u>same streaming
format</u>.</font><br>
<br>
I was thinking that "same streaming format" referred to
bitrate/channels, etc. Perhaps it means mp3 or ogg.<br>
<br>
Anyway, this is good news. Thank you. <br>

<blockquote type="cite">Icecast allows using a fallback mount file

<fallback-mount>/example2.ogg</fallback-mount>

It is necessary that the file have the same bitrate and same

(single or two-channels) as the main mount.

I regularly broadcast with 48kBit streaming rate (mp3, mono,
44kHz). My fallback-file is a 244kBit, stereo, 44kHz, mp3 file.
Works like a charme....
