Ability to turn off the station stream

61 votes

Currently turning off Auto DJ does not actually stop the stream. If a station is silent and a listener tunes in they will still consume TLH mins.

Broadcasters have asked for the ability to "reset" their account's stream, kicking all listeners & allowing immediate enforcement of IP bans

This is related to the "kill switch" function we've discussed.

We as station owners should be able to have full control of our stations in this regard.

As a terrestrial radio station, we sometimes play certain programs that are copyrighted, and should not be streamed. A great feature would be the ability to schedule the stream to turn on and off at selected times.

I don't like the fact that I can't switch my station between being on air and off, should I ever need to it would be nice to have that ability. There are quite a few changes that I feel should take place to make a better experience for us all. Someone should hire one of us to help with those ideas and GET THEM DONE.

I would like the ability to "reboot" or "restart" my station.
For example, somehow my Auto DJ was reset to random and the Clockwheel is being ignored. Subsequently, Christmas and Easter music is playing on my station. I reset the Auto DJ to the Clocksheel but who knows how long I'll have to wait before it takes effect.
