Hello,

I have a few questions.

(1) When a source client connect, it appears, at least through telnet,
that only the URL field gets passed through and not title or
description. Can this be changed?

Example:
--- 1 ---
url="http://example.com";
song="Test Track"

(2) Using a dynamic playlist where the track names come from the
output of a called program, no title is sent to the Icecast server. I
suppose this is the "song" variable? But it doesn't exist for the
playlist tracks anyway. Can I substitute in a metadata myself for each
request.dynamic using an external process?

(3) When switching from live to playlist, the playlist song that was
playing continues to play. A new song does not start up. Can the
playlist be forced to fetch a new song (and fade into it) when it is
fallen to, without using track_sensitive=true?

(4) Under the case that I don't want a new song to be played, can the
metadata be reset? If the live source cuts off, the metadata for the
live source continues to be sent instead of the metadata for the
playlist track. The metadata will only be reset once a new playlist
track loads up. (Note, the metadata is blank for the playlist tracks
anyway, as mentioned in (2)).

(5) When a source is connected to the harbor but it sends no data,
Liquidsoap will still fall back to the playlist. Can this prevented,
as long as a source is connected to the harbor?

(6) I am not sure what the transitions parameter really is for
fallback function. If I put in more than one function in that tuple,
what happens?

A lot of questions, I know. Thanks for your work on LS!
