Terminate Live Broadcast

In the cloud player, when a livestream is started, it automatically switches over... But let's say you have given 3 DJs access to your station to broadcast from, and one of them decides to stream at a time you have NOT agreed upon. How do you kill the live broadcast? Is there anyway to terminate their connection from the cloud?
 
You can open Icecast admin page (from the Information section in the control panel) and "kick" the source you don't need. In the future we'll improve this, by adding allowed connection time periods and other features.

Have you implemented this?
 
This is what I miss very much in the entire radiogboss cloud system. When can this feature be expected?
Scheduling for DJs will be added in one of the future updates. Currently I can't tell when exactly, I'm sorry.
 
Hi. I too am requesting this feature. If there are multiple DJs with live stream ability, as far as I can tell, there is no way to see who is connected if their Stream Info isnt added correctly? Is there anywhere or anyway that we can tell which user is connected in the back end?

Currently not, we're working on improving the live DJ feature - adding allowed time slots, showing who's connected etc.
 
YES Please ! With multiple DJs this is essential and some don't know about time. That will annoy others, especially when they come one after the other. Is it implemented at all??

What's the workaround otherwise?
Good that DJ can have own logins and ftp but time slot linked to events is really needed.

Can Scheduled AutoDJ Events Force Disconnect a Live DJ?



Hi RadioBOSS team,



We’re looking for a way to manage when DJs are allowed to connect in RadioBOSS Cloud, but we understand there’s no built-in feature to restrict login times for DJ accounts (e.g., only allow DJ Alex to stream on Mondays from 18:00 to 20:00).





Possible Workaround — Would This Work?





We’re considering using a scheduled event in the Scheduler to force AutoDJ to take over at a specific time. For example:



  • Schedule an event at 20:00 to start an AutoDJ playlist
  • Use the following settings:


    • ✅ Insert into playback
    • ✅ Stop current track/event
    • ✅ Start playback even if DJ/track playing


Our assumption is that this would forcibly interrupt a live DJ stream and hand control back to AutoDJ.


Can you confirm if this method:


  • Reliably disconnects a currently connected DJ?
  • Prevents them from continuing to stream after the event fires?

Context & Request


The goal is to create a soft way to enforce DJ time limits, even without native time-based login restrictions. If this workaround is reliable, we can combine it with manual DJ account enabling/disabling. Otherwise, we’d love to see:

  • A future feature to define allowed login time ranges per DJ
  • Automatic rejection of DJ connection attempts outside allowed windows
  • Optional alert/logging when unauthorized attempts are made

Thanks for your guidance, and for continuing to improve the platform!
