Hello, The eat_blank operator is only used for the "musique" value, which relates to playlist.m3u - a playlist of +/- 100 mp3s with very little blank : this list is what's broadcasted about 20hrs/day every day. I never had a problem with eat_blank and that playlist. playlist.m3u must NOT be confused with play.m3u which is a playlist of only one file, played only on saturday evening.
play.m3u is used in the "metalinv" value, for which no eat_blank is used. There is no eat_blank either in further "mix" (like after using a switch or a fallback), so it should not interfere with liquidsoap behaviors regarding the muting of different sources. As a consequence, my guess is eat_blank can not interfere with the metalinv/play.m3u/switch mess, which started all my troubles. The same goes for the crossfade operator, which is used before the switch, and does not interfere with the guilty metalinv. If you still think eat_blank could interefere with something, tell me, and I'll try without it. But for now, I'm doubtful.
