Wondering if anyone knows of a project similar to NostalgiaTV, but for music, essential where I'd be able to create stations pointed at playlists on my Jellyfin server and it will just build a continuous schedule where if I turn on that station it might just be in the middle of a song, rather than me just selecting a playlist and skipping songs till I get to one I want right now.

I know, it's not necessarily practical, but I like the idea.

In Icecast you usually have a “station” (mountpoint) sourced by a source client like IceS and streamed by Icecast to a large amount of listeners. This implies that all listeners of that mountpoint get the same stream, so an individual listener can’t pause the stream or add different tracks without affecting all other users.
