Edit Priority Stream Window

The name of the priority stream. This is shown on the main interface when the stream is not Closed.

The type of the priority stream. Priority streams can bring in audio from a remote URL such as a streaming Icecast or SHOUTcast server or can accept direct connections from Icecast compatible clients. See here for more details.

If you have selected Live URL as the type, you can enter the Live URL to listen for incoming audio.

 

If you have selected Direct Stream Connection you can select the user who will need to log in and stream audio to activate this priority stream. You can create a user under Manage > Users.

The open, active stream with the highest priority number will go live.

The open state is used to determine whether PlayIt Live will check to see if a Live URL or Direct Stream is streaming audio.

 

In the Closed state, PlayIt Live will not check for a connected stream and this priority stream will never go live.
In the Pre-Open state, PlayIt Live will check for a connected stream but it will not go live. This can be used to ensure a stream is loaded and buffered prior to going live.

In the Open state, PlayIt Live will check for a connected stream. If the stream is connected, has valid audio and is above the silence threshold defined here it will go live.

 

When a priority stream goes live, it will take over any current live-assist playout as per the settings defined here.

Save changes and close the window.

Discard changes and close the window.
