Backup Airtime
Yup. I set up a CRON job to do the same. Saved my bacon a couple of times. Not backing up is madness.

There are Airtime CLOCKS - the important one is in the USER options.

Can Airtime support FLAC?[SOLVED?]
The data stream can be via the Smart TV's internet or extracted from the digital RF channel as a normal DAB radio station. USA systems may be nothing like this I guess.

One of your 4 clocks time zones is wrong. Hardware, Unix (software), Airtime Station Clock and Airtime User Clock. My money is on the Clock Time Zone in the Airtime User Panel.

I think it imports flac but won't stream it without a (small) tweak in LS and (a very small tweak) in Icecast. We could hold a seance and try to contact airtime?

I do not think I believe this project. Forcing FLAC on an unwilling public when WMA or Lossless MP3 would do it and run on anything - and still be lossless - seems like a silly model. I would upgrade to client to a company that knows which way the w…

Has anybody got an ARMH processor version working? I compiled it all with no errors but it does not work. I have another way around it, but it would be nice if it did work.

how to broadcast differnt flows on different streams on the same server ?
Another way would be to run multiple virtual boxes on the server, each containing different airtime installations. In other words, make your own VPS hosting setup..
