Radio.Canstream Icecast Server Version Update

We have this evening carried out an icecast update to clients on the radio.canstream.co.uk server, moving from Icecast 2.45.0 KH Version 20 to Version 22. This change was carried out as part of an emergency break fix to hopefully resolve an ongoing memory leak bug we have been seeing. 

At the time of writing it is too soon to say for certain that this has resolved matters but we are hopeful based on the early results. 

The memory leak had limited public facing impact however we were having to restart some instances overnight to ensure the server could run in a stable fashion.

The hope is that this will no longer be necessary and we will remain in a stable condition going forward. 

We will update this announcement if there are further findings or actions required from our side. Thank you for your patience whilst we have been working to fix this issue

Many thanks

Oliver
