Hi Kruno,

Thanks for your mail. I think you may have sent a mail earlier and I didn't
respond (I think I was traveling), and first let me apologize for not
getting back to you earlier.

It sounds like what you want to do is schedule a live network stream and
have the Campcaster storage server treat a network stream as an object that
can be scheduled, so that from, say noon to 2pm it opens the network stream
from this or that source.

This was a feature we planned for the first release of LiveSupport (which
was the project's original name), but work on this stopped after we had to
switch to Gstreamer instead of Helix player as our sound engine.

This may be possible after Mark Kretschmann completes his port of
Campcaster to Gstreamer 0.10. It isn't currently possible. Maybe this is
something you - or someone in your group - could help us with?


Best regards,


Douglas Arellanes




Hi!

Free Radio: Stanica M.I.R. (http://stanicamir.org/) is network of free
internet radios. Our streaming is going over Montevideo server in
Amsterdam but soon we are planing to migrate to one in Croatia. we have
been checking Campcaster for some time and thinking that it will be
perforct for waht we do. But there is couple of questions that we cannot
figure out is it possible:

Streaming on Stanica MIR goes from different towns in different time.
there is no real schedule and time varies a lot. in between live
streaming we would like to have a play list so our radio wouldn't be
silent between live streams from around Croatia.

We are wondering how can we manipulate campcaster software so that when
a stream is started in Dubrovnik (for example) we can stop a play list
(that is on server in Zagreb for example) and make a live stream from
Dubrovnik just like next item on playlist. When finished with live
streaming a possibilities that someone else automatically connects from
Split, or that play list (from podcast server) plays can be option.

Hope you understand me, and hope that you can help us. We have been
following project for some time now and were hopping that it will
develop to a something that will help us. Now it looks like right time,
but as we are more of free open source media than free open source
people we have some difficulties in starting campcaster on our machine
(running Ubuntu studio).

thnx for all your help and for great thing you are developing!
