I am relatively new to icecast and have a question about a unique configuration. I would like to know if anyone has experience 'sinking' multiple source clients (ices2.0.x) into a single icecast streaming server? I would like to source content from a large number of streaming clients (dozens or maybe even hundreds), composite them into a single stream (essentially like an audio mixing board) and then have the streaming server serve up this new composite content to only a few listeners. It is somewhat the reverse of a traditional streaming server configuration (a single or very small number of source clients into the streaming server and numerous listening clients). Here is what I have in mind: Many ---> |-------------| source ---> | Streaming |--------> small number of listener clients clients : | server | : | | ---> |-------------| Can this be done with icecast as implemented? If not and code modifications are necessary, what modules might one need to modify? Ideally, I would also like to apply a variable gain to each source client's channel independently before the composite process. Any help would be most appreciated.
