Shoutcast reconnect retry timeout?
  • Is there a way to get AirTime to try to connect to a shoutcast server every 30 seconds (or to alter the existing reconnect timer)

    The reason is that Airtime is our station backup, so if the stream / internet goes down in our main studio, our Airtime Backup stream will kick in after x seconds (obviously if the main studio is connected it will be unable to connect, so will just keep trying)

    We've had this set up and running using EdCast and RadioDJ for 2 years now and for us it's a perfect solution, I just would love to be able to switch over to airtime!

  • For Icecast and Shoutcast connections, there should be a 5 second timeout between Liquidsoap re-attempting the connection after a failure. 

    Please let us know if you try and it doesn't work.

  • Many thanks, 5 seconds is the perfect time for us!
