PRODUCT WORKFLOW

Program, shape and broadcast from one control plane.

Program

Playlists, schedules and BPM-aware track selection keep editorial rules in control.

Rules + schedules + BPM

Shape

Fade, overlap, bridge and track-exit controls make transitions part of the programming.

Fade + overlap + bridge

Broadcast

A dedicated Rust engine executes the queue and delivers the station directly to Icecast.

Queue → Rust → Icecast

NEW IN 0.1.0-rc.8

Operate, observe and publish the station from the same stack.

RC8 extends the broadcast core with portable backups, real audience statistics and listener-facing embeds — without adding a Liquidsoap layer.

01

Backup & Restore

Essential or Full .fcbak archives, resumable uploads and transactional restore with rollback safeguards.

Media-aware · resumable · persistent jobs
02

Station Statistics

Live audience, history, trends, countries, players and devices from station-scoped Icecast activity.

Real-time · reports · local privacy
03

Embeddable Widgets

Publish a player, recently played, upcoming tracks or listener count on an external site with copyable iframe snippets.

Public-safe · self-contained · iframe-ready
04

Three Player Layouts

Normal, Compact and Minimal are genuinely distinct player structures designed for different integration footprints.

Normal · Compact · Minimal

INTERFACE + ARCHITECTURE

A focused operator interface for an explicit broadcast path.

Runtime state, media, schedules and transition controls stay visible without introducing another playout scripting layer.

Audio analysis and BPM support scheduling. Bliss similarity is available as an optional Pro capability.

No generated Liquidsoap program. No additional playout scripting layer.
