  Using Artificial intelligence to optimize streaming bitrates based upon changing network conditions.

  I create two different mount points, one with acc+ (48kbps) for mobile listeners and another one with mp3 (128kbps or above) for fixed access.
  Then the platform should use AI to optimize streaming bitrates based upon changing network conditions and set the relevant mount point for the listener.

  Liquidsoap supports M3U8 Playlist to stream HLS.

  This will be very useful, I currently run both azuracast and youphptube for live streaming audio and video, when DJ's are broadcasting live video they also have to run a 2nd client for icecast, it can be problematic running 2 clients for some DJ's depending on their setup so to be able to relay the audio from a live video stream would be great.

  I'd like to re-broadcast a radio station with the format like http://radio.com/playlist.m3u8 using Remote URL.

  HLS support is now available via the AzuraCast web UI in the latest Rolling Release version. Enable it from the "AutoDJ" tab in the station profile. We create some sensible sub-streams out of the box, but you can customize them via "Broadcasting" > "HLS Streams".

  I'm not very familiar with HLS. It seems to work fine but I don't see the artist/title if I play it. Are metadatas not included in that kind of stream ?
  Is there any chance to have a listener count in the future ? Thanks

  Another question : would it be possible to have aac+ also available ? A very low bandwidth 32kbps aac+ would be fine for car playing

  We have our HLS M3u8 azuracast stream up and running and thereby were able to easily add our radio station stream to our ROKU channel, using the Direct Publisher tool. We use to have to use the SDK method. We use a 800x450 station logo via the .json feed. However, there does not seem to be an option to send an image with the original stream from azuracast. Is there any way to send a static .jpg from azuracast, embeded in the M3u8? Our example is on the ROKU channel under MUTUAL NEWS and Independent Calvary Chapel (two channels)
