Hey!
I'm working with SHOUTcast v2 and maybe it helps to understand it. You
have to set the fallback after your live-port, its like a priority in
which order the sources will be used. If "live" not connected, so use
the "fallback".
#port and pass for djs
live =
input.harbor(icy=true,icy_metadata_charset="UTF-8","/",port=8610,password="hackme")
#fallback
emergency = single("/home/shoutcast/emergency/jingle_001.mp3")
radio = fallback(track_sensitive=false,[live,emergency])
If you would have a 24/7 rotating playlist you could set it between
"live" and "fallback".
radio = fallback(track_sensitive=false,[live,source_247,emergency])
That means "live" has the first prio and it can connect everytime. If
"live" is not connected then the 24/7 playlist will start and if the the
24/7 is not ready then your fallback will start the rotation of your
great song.
