Hi,

Would it be possible to have butt set the bitrate property for Icecast, not just the ice-bitrate on the mount point? I know other encoders do this, and it might be handy. Right now I'm doing it myself via the config file.

Thank you.

Best,
Dave

    Hi Dave, I am afraid I don't understand what you mean by "bitrate property for Icecast". Please elaborate more on that and how do you set it via BUTT config file?

      Hi Daniel,

      Thanks for replying so quickly.

      The <bitrate>xxx</bitrate> element in the XML file sets the property on the Icecast mount point. Then it by default gets shown on the public status page.

    Oh, I didn't know that. I figured out how to do it and made a quick test.
    If nothing comes up that would speak against that change it will be included in the next release :)
