Streaming - Upload Fallback / Backup File (BR Streaming only)

Broadcast Radio Streaming customers can upload a Fallback / Backup File which will be played in the event that neither the primary or backup encoder is connected to the streaming mount point. This file should be a mix of music and jingles that you want to play if your station is fully off air. We recommend creating a file between 20 minutes and an hour in length.

Please note the the audio file must be the same format and bitrate as your main stream (128kbps MP3 by default).

2. Click Settings.

3. Then Streaming.

4. Locate the Stream you want to add an Intro File to. Remember you can only add Intro Files to Streams with the Broadcast Radio provider.
