Has anyone managed to set a Shoutcast Stream as MoH or Ring-Back tone?

I am setting up a FusionPBX for a Radio Station that wants to use their live stream as MOH. Playing the stream in the Streams App is working, when assigned to an extension MoH or Ring back tone in a Ring Group.... just silence.

I use streaming for MoH.

I use Icecast as the media streaming server, and Ezstream as the source client. Each stream requires an instance of Ezstream to be running.

It works well, but the setup of each stream is a manual process with coping mp3's, creating playlist m3u's, ezstream cfg's, and ezstream service files. After that you have to configure the stream in Fusion.

There can be a slight delay when initially between putting a call on hold and hearing the music. For that reason I would be hesitant of using streaming for ringback.
