Livestream from external PC

[zooma]

Good afternoon,

I use RadioBoss and would like to offer live shows now. Since we also have DJs who want to stream directly from their mix programs (and of course not via VNC) I'm looking for a solution that they stream from their PCs to RadioBoss and Radioboss plays that on the streams without restarting the streams.

With kind regards

Sorry, I've missed this thread for some reason.

This problem is better solved on server side, not from within RadioBOSS. For instance, use fallback mount points in Icecast, or use a stream hosting with DJs capability - for instant, RadioBOSS Cloud allows DJs to connect without interrupting the stream or disconnecting listeners.

But then the livestream is only played when radioboss stops streaming and we want it to work automatically, is it possible with icecast?

If you use fallback mount points in Icecast should work. This can be tricky to setup if you do it the first time, but once you understand it, you should be able to do what you need.
