    I persume you want to make pre-scheduled broadcasts on a web radio.

    the easiest way to achieve this is to use two sound cards. you have one
    that the LiveSupport scheduler uses (say /dev/dsp0), and another one
    that you will use to create the live broadcast.

    first, set up LiveSupport so that it uses /dev/dsp0 for the scheduler
    (see the scheduler.xml config file). you can connect the output of this
    sound card to a regular speaker to check if it plays what you meant it
    to play.

    if all is OK, use a small audio cable to connect the output of this
    sound card into the line-in of the other soundcard (/dev/dsp1). this
    will enable you to capture the same audio that is sent out by the
    scheduler, encode it, and send it to a streaming server.

    to check if this works, set your mixer for /dev/dsp1 so that it records
    on line-in, set the sound levels and do some test recordings with your
    favourite audio recorder (be that either sox, audacity or something
    else). if you record what was sent out from the scheduler, you're fine.

    then configure a live streaming encoder (such as darkice or ices) to
    grab audio from /dev/dsp1, and send it to your streaming server - and
    you're done.
