You can have several sources in one setup, and control in many ways
how to switch between them. When you write a switch you can use
arbitrary switching predicates, including one that will vary with
external interaction. Something you can try quickly:
switch([({test_process("test -f
/path/to/file1")},s1),({test_process("test -f /path/to/file1")},s2)])
This will play s1 if file1 exists, otherwise s2 if file2 exists,
otherwise be unavailable.
A lighter variant using references instead of the filesystem:
play_1 = ref(false)
play_2 = ref(false)
switch([({!play_1},s1),({!play_2},s2)])
Then you add server commands using server.register() to toggle the
play_i flags, and you control who plays.
Another way is using the mix() operator, which is a full mixing table
but has builtin controls (accessible via the server) for switching.

If it's different scripts, then they have to communicate, typically
using an HTTP stream (icecast or harbor), and you gather the streams
in another liquidsoap that does the switching as described above. But
unless you have a good reason, it's probably simpler (and cleaner) to
put all the sources together in one script and do the switching before
output.
Hope this helps,
