    Hi,
    is there a way to set the library with some automatic content filling ALL the emtpy spaces between shows?
    A playlist, or a redirect to another stream...
    If not (yet), I think it would be a good way to easily create a palimpsest, focusing on actual programs.

    Mh?

    Yes check out Voisses turorials in this forum. Or search for 'Silence'
    No longer using Airtime or Libretime.

    Ok, I found it!
    Following this (http://forum.sourcefabric.org/discussion/15701/fallover-101-how-to-make-all-scripts-worked-easy-steps-to-build-your-scripts-fixed-silence) and this (http://forum.sourcefabric.org/discussion/15650/airtime-2-4-and-backups-playlists-give-yours) thread, I succesfully filled empty spaces with a playlist.

    BUUUT....
    What I could not do, is use an EXTERNAL stream as a filler.
    Which is actually what I really would like to do.
    Any suggestion on this?
    (Maybe I should ask in those threads?)

    Thank you

    I like when you ask in new threads.It provide a "uniqueness" to see your problem in your view.
    I will use my one line  modification for silence found here [ I like this for fast,simple,and quick solution]

    So here is what you would do something like this
    #Use this to test first
    #default = fallback(track_sensitive = false,[playlist(mode="normal","/srv/airtime/stor/imported/")])

    Code Starts here:

    #now modify to pick up an external stream instead

    #external stream
    urlexternalstream=input.http("http://localhost:port/mount")

    # Some music,Jingles,Airtime library etc
    somemusic =playlist("/srv/airtime/stor/imported/")

    # you could put music weights to hit a jingle then a song etc

    #Fallback where when there is no stream,play something and return when stream comes back online
    default = fallback(track_sensitive = false,[urlexternalstream,somemusic])
