Icecast 2.1 11/04/2004
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
****New features for 2.1 (in no particular order):****
|
|
|
|
-Listener Authentication-
|
|
|
|
Icecast now supports listener authentication. This provides a mechanism for
|
|
creating/maintaining users and passwords for listeners. Currently, we only
|
|
have implemented a simple, file-based storage for users and passwords. New
|
|
authenticators are on the horizon (such as URL-based or possibly MySQL based)
|
|
New admin pages were also added for the maintenance of users/passwords. Please
|
|
check the docs for a more detailed description of this new feature.
|
|
|
|
-Multi-Level Fallbacks-
|
|
|
|
Multi-level fallbacks allow for specifications of a series of fallback mounts
|
|
that you can use to automatically move listeners in the event of a source being
|
|
disconnected. In the event of new listeners attaching to the source stream that has
|
|
been disconnected, they are routed to the fallback mount (if specified).
|
|
Icecast now has fallback-override capability as well which means that in the event
|
|
of a source stream failure, listeners are moved to the fallback mount, and then
|
|
automatically recaptured when the original source stream returns.
|
|
|
|
-Burst-On-Connect-
|
|
|
|
This is an new, optional config setting which will send a initial burst of
|
|
data to connecting listeners. This has the effect of reducing
|
|
(significantly) the startup buffer latency from the end-user perspective.
|
|
This option is enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
****New Enhancements for 2.1****
|
|
|
|
-Update to admin interface-
|
|
|
|
This interface has been cleaned up quite a bit and made a bit nicer.
|
|
|
|
-Rewrite of the YP listing code-
|
|
|
|
The icecast yp code has received a complete overhaul by karl, and it's a much
|
|
more stable and failure-resistant implementation.
|
|
|
|
-Lots and lots of bugs fixed-
|
|
|
|
Check the ChangeLog for a complete list of these...

|
2003-03-08
|
|
Support for shoutcast source protocol added.
|
|
|
|
2003-03-08
|
|
Started implementing generic admin interface. Supports (so far):
|
|
- dynamic configuration of mount fallbacks
|
|
/admin/fallbacks?mount=/mount&fallback=/fallback
|
|
- setting of mp3 metadata
|
|
/admin/metadata?mount=/mount&mode=updinfo&song=New%20Title
|
|
- dumping raw xml stats
|
|
/admin/rawstats

|
|
/admin/listclients?mount=/mountname
|
|
|
|
2003-03-05
|
|
Implemented the ability to reread the config file on SIGHUP. For now, this
|
|
does not affect configuration for currently running sources (only new
|
|
sources and global parameters like max-listeners)
|
|
|
|
2003-03-02
|
|
More features:
|
|
-- per mountpoint listener maxima
|
|
-- static configuration of mountpoint fallbacks
|
|
-- stream dumping (write incoming stream to disk)
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
Support new icy-audio-info header, to communicate various parameters to
