  shorter streaming URL looks nicer and simpler, I agree with this suggestion.

  Some progress to report on this one: we now support cleaner port 80 proxy URLs (/listen/station_name) instead of /radio/8000 like before.

  If possible, https://domain.name/mountpoint would be perfect.
  
  Kudos to Buster Neece for bringing azuracast.

  To some extent you can already do this by having a simple .htaccess redirect from your desired address simple address
  
  eg https://wreckers.radio/listen goes to the default mount point on the azuracast server for the station and https://wreckers.radio/now goes to a plain now playing page on the website (or the azuraca public page if you are using that)
  
  Although the browser address bar will still show the full mount point url if you are accessing it from a web browser it is ok for radio apps and internet radios which usually show name rather than the url or simply display the shortened one and mask the real url.
  
  In any event the most important thing is to have a simple url to give out to simple listeners
  
  on the website the .htaccess for the above looks like this (fragment)
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/listen
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://azuracast.spollin.net:8010/radio.mp3 [R=302,L]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/now
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://wreckers.radio/streamer/now.php [R=302,L]

  This allows redirecting http://azuracast/*.mp3 to http://icecast:port/*.mp3
  
  
  
  vi /var/azuracast/docker-compose.override.yml
  
  
  services:
  web:
  volumes:
  - ./custom.conf:/etc/nginx/azuracast.conf.d/custom.conf
  
  
  
  
  
  vi /var/azuracast/custom.conf
  
  
  location ~ ^/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)\.mp3$ {
  include proxy_params;
  
  proxy_intercept_errors on;
  proxy_next_upstream error timeout invalid_header;
  proxy_redirect off;
  proxy_connect_timeout 60;
  
  proxy_set_header Host $host;
  set $args $args&_ic2=1;
  
  proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000/$1.mp3?$args;
  }

  Manuel, thank you. I came across your reply after two years, tried it, and it actually works. I hope the developers someday find the time to incorporate this feature into future AzuraCast releases. Kudos to Buster Neece and the AzuraCast team.
