[arm-allstar] broadcastify setup

[David McGough]

Don,

Are you still having issues with ezstream?  I help maintain several 
streams to Broadcastify and haven't had any recent problems.

Note that I fixed a longstanding bug in the ezstream software some months 
ago, so the software will now properly terminate, if the input stream (via 
STDIN) in closed.  The older code would just hang forever, requiring 
forcibly killing the ezstream application, so this is no longer the case.

...However, I didn't have to change any scripting related to this update.

I can send you a copy of my scripts, if needed?


73, David K4FXC

I'll give it a try. And now we're offline again.
